Halle Bailey had a very strong reason for keeping her pregnancy to herself.
The “Little Mermaid” star was among those honored at the 2024 Essence Black Women in Hollywood Awards on March 7, where she shared the story of why she decided to keep her pregnancy private.
“What was one of the biggest highlights of my life, and to be real, one of the biggest challenges, too, cannot compare to the biggest joy of my life, and that was becoming a mom to my perfect little angel, Halo,” Bailey, 23, said during her acceptance speech, shared by The Hollywood Reporter on Instagram.
She continued by saying that the lessons that she shared in her speech led her to “a place of protection.”
“There was no way in hell I was going to share the biggest joy of my world with anyone,” she said. “Halo was my gift. He is the greatest blessing, and I had no obligation to expose him, me, or my family to that unyielding spotlight.”
