Halle Bailey turned heads at the premiere of the new musical adaptation of “The Color Purple,” donning a striking red gown alongside co-stars Fantasia Barrino, Danielle Brooks, Taraji P. Henson, Ciara, H.E.R., and more.
The voluminous dress, adorned with ruffles, has fueled speculation about Bailey’s possible pregnancy, given its strategic coverage of her midsection.
Despite the rumors, Bailey has not directly addressed the speculation, but a recent message to fans hinted at her gratitude for those who respect women’s bodies.
In a message this week, Bailey expressed gratitude for her supportive fans, acknowledging the challenges of being scrutinized and emphasizing the importance of unconditional love.
The 23-year-old seems intent on keeping details about that aspect of her life private for now.
Regarding “The Color Purple,” Bailey shared a positive experience on set during an October interview with Cosmopolitan.
She likened the atmosphere to a family reunion, describing the set as a gathering surrounded by “aunties and cousins.”
Excitement and reverence for the original story fueled the cast’s dedication to delivering a compelling reimagining.
