DDG revealed Halle Bailey's pregnancy months before the official announcement, after fans have uncovered evidence that the rapper posted a baby scan on April 1.

The rapper initially posted a picture of Halle's baby scan on April Fools Day on Twitter, with the caption: "can't wait to be your Dad", but fans assumed he was trolling until Halle revealed the shock birth this month.

Now, fans have noticed that the original post matches the timeline in which Halle was pregnant, meaning DDG actually revealed he and Halle were expecting months before the birth announcement.

At the time of tweeting, April Fools Day, fans did not suspect that the post from DDG was real, with many fans commenting along the likes of: “We get it because it’s April fools but babies and faking a pregnancy isn’t cute.”

Another quipped on the original post: "This is the oldest and worst April fools prank. Surprised you never got the memo that this isn’t funny.”

Just days into the new year, Halle uploaded a picture of her son Halo, whose hand was wrapped around her and DDG's fingers.

DDG has also opened up about fatherhood, and revealed he has 'never been so in love' following the arrival of his son Halo, and candidly shared snippets of Halle's journey on his YouTube channel.

He shared sweet snippets of Halle's pregnancy scans, and a trip to Bora Bora, which they quipped as their baby moon.

DDG said in the video that fatherhood has opened up his perspective, and said he has been hit with a 'new-found maturity' after welcoming Halo.
