Halle Bailey Has Come a Long Way From Her YouTube Days — A Look at Her Net Worth

The Breakdown: Singer and actor Halle Bailey's successful career as a former child star contributed to her stellar net worth. She is also navigating massive fame with her role as a mother to her son, Halo Saint, and personal battles.

In case you didn't know, Halle Bailey is grown now and making power moves personally and professionally! The Grammy-nominated artist is taking her life and career to new heights while the world watches and sometimes judges.

Halle's career resulted in an impressive net worth and multiple examples of her being that girl in her industry. Let's explore her earnings.

According to Celebrity Net Worth, Halle has a net worth of $3 million. Her earnings come from years of grinding in the entertainment industry with her sister, Chloe Bailey. The sisters' music careers began with their singing group, Chloe x Halle. The duo started their singing careers at 8 and 10, respectively, by singing cover songs on YouTube and playing instruments they learned on the platform. They quickly caught the public's attention for their impeccable harmonies and sound.

Chloe X Halle's viral moment came when they covered Beyoncé's "Pretty Hurts" from her 2013 self-titled album. The video's success led Beyoncé to sign them to her Parkwood Entertainment. Before signing to Bey, the sisters were already making strides in acting, starring in Disney Channel's Let It Shine and a guest spot on Austin and Ally. Halle also guest-starred on House of Payne and starred in The Last Holiday.

Chloe X Halle continued growing their music with mixtapes before releasing their debut album, The Kids Are Alright. The album included their song, "Grown," which became the theme song for Freeform's Grown-Ish, where Halle starred as Skylar "Sky" Forster and Chloe played Jazlyn "Jazz" Forster. The sisters followed up with a second album in 2020, Ungodly Hour. The album, plus their impressive promotional rollout for the album, including filming the video for their song "Do It" at their house, launched them into mainstream success.

In July 2019, she was selected to star in The Little Mermaid as Ariel. As the first Black live-action Disney Princess, she received multiple hateful comments, including the creation of the viral hashtag #NotMyAriel. Still, the film was a major success for Halle, grossing $95.5 million in its opening weekend in July 2023, stamping her legacy as a Disney Princess.

Halle continued taking on acting roles, starring in The Color Purple in 2023. While she and Chloe never officially disbanded, they have explored solo projects. In August 2023, she released her debut solo single "Angel." That same year, she and her ex, DDG, welcomed their son, Halo.

"Even though we’re a few days into the new year, the greatest thing that 2023 could have done for me, was bring me my son.. welcome to the world, my halo," she shared on Instagram in January 2024. "The world is desperate to know you."

Halle's success continued to shine before and after motherhood. She posted multiple photos and videos of her son accompanying her to the gym, on vacation, and anywhere else, proving that he's always nearby wherever she goes. Halle said Halo is just as monumental to her success as an artist, stating at the 2024 Grammy U MasterClass Talk, "I feel like I've reached this new level of maturity, especially being a mother now, which is so crazy to say."

"It has opened up a whole new can of worms for me, honestly," Halle said. "I am obsessed with my baby. It's insane."

In November 2024, Halle and Halo's father, DDG, split after two years together. Months later, in May 2025, Halle filed a restraining order against the Twitch streamer for physical and emotional abuse. Halle also earned sole legal and physical custody of their son.
