Halle Bailey's son Halo is going viral after he finally recognized his mom as Ariel in The Little Mermaid.
On Wednesday (March 5), Bailey took to social media to share an adorable video of Halo watching her in the 2023 live-action adaptation of the iconic Disney film.
The now-viral video shows Halo sitting on a bed and playing with a toy stethoscope as he watched as mom on television. Bailey captured the moment when the 14-month-old finally figured out that his mom was Ariel.
"Momma," Halo said as he turned towards the TV.
Bailey giggled in glee as her son recognized her role in the film.
"Momma!" Halo said again, to which Bailey responded, "Yeah, that's momma. That's momma."
Bailey said the sweet moment made her emotional.
"Guys I’m crying he actually knows Ariel is me," the actress and singer captioned the video.
Bailey starred as Ariel in the remake of the 1989 animated version of The Little Mermaid." The live-action film was released in May 2023, just months before Bailey announced the arrival of her son, whom she shares with her ex, DDG, in January 2024.
