According to new reports, DDG filed an emergency motion on Wednesday morning to stop Bailey from leaving the country with their son. He requested an emergency hearing on the case, stating that his ex must not be allowed to fly to Italy with Halo on Saturday.

The YouTuber emphasized that the trip had to be canceled because Bailey posed a danger to herself and Halo. He claimed she was not mentally fit to care for herself and their son, noting his concerns about what could happen if she was allowed to leave.

DDG, per the documents obtained by TMZ, alleged Bailey was an "imminent emotional and psychological risk" to Halo, given her past behavior. He cited multiple examples of her alleged suicidal antics, claiming she once took his gun and left the house without a word during her pregnancy.

DDG noted that after Bailey left the house with his gun, he later found her outside with the weapon still in her hands. Her alleged mental problems continued during her pregnancy, with the entertainer accusing her of attempting to have an abortion without his knowledge.

Although Bailey chose to keep the baby, per his claims, she did not overcome her poor mental state. DDG noted that two months after Halo's birth, he received "a series of alarming text messages" from his ex "threatening to kill herself and suggesting that their infant son, Halo, might also be harmed."

Three months before DDG dropped his claims about Bailey's mental health, The Blast reported that he accused her of restricting his access to their son. He slammed her actions in a vlog titled "She Won't Let Me See My Son," alleging that his rights as a father had been restricted since Halo's birth.

DDG claimed he wasn't the type to air his personal struggles on social media; however, he hoped that doing so would grant him access to Halo. "I just want to be able to see my son when I want to see my son, take my son when I want to take my son," he told fans.

While addressing his alleged inability to see his son, DDG recalled a moment when he drove for hours to Bailey's home, hoping to spend quality time with Halo. However, his former partner wasn't having it. "And then I get there, and I can't, and I'm kicked out of the crib, can't see him," he claimed.

The media personality noted that the only silver lining in his restricted access to Halo was that the boy was too young to be worried about his absence. He added that whenever he got to see his son, the toddler always greeted him with a big smile.
