At the 2024 ESSENCE Black Women in Hollywood Awards, Bailey, who welcomed her son Halo last year, expressed her thoughts on embracing motherhood amidst the challenges of fame.

Despite initially choosing to keep her pregnancy private, Bailey eventually decided to share the news with her fans. She highlighted the importance of women's autonomy over their bodies and the right to decide what to share with the world.

Referencing other celebrities who have maintained privacy during their pregnancies, Bailey emphasized the power of setting boundaries and making personal choices without external influence.

Grateful for the support of strong women in her life, Bailey credited her sisters for inspiring her resilience, confidence, and independence. She also received praise from her sister Chloe, who described her as 'the best mom ever' and expressed her love for Halo.

By sharing her story, Bailey not only celebrated the joy of motherhood but also advocated for women's rights to make decisions about their bodies and privacy. Her words serve as a reminder of the importance of empowerment and self-determination in the face of societal expectations.
