On the other hand, DDG said on ‘The Breakfast Club’ in November 2022, as per Parade, “I’ve never been with nobody that’s like really motivated me like [Halle] do. I’m seeing different s**t. I ain’t really been around this type of s**t before, so it’s like, she’s bringing me around s**t that I ain’t really—you know what I’m saying? ‘Oh, this is crazy. This is dope.’ You know what I mean? I was my own person before her, but in a way, put me on to different s**t. That’s dope because I’m usually the one putting motherf****s on.”

Denying the allegations, Bailey tweeted, “The devil is working lol. Please don’t feel into the lies, especially from a third party. Stay blessed everyone.” When asked if she thought DDG was her “real Prince Charming,” she said, “Yeah. I would say that.”
