Halle Bailey's Son Is Her Literal Carbon Copy in a Adorable Mother-Son Gym Selfie

The A Motown Christmas co-host welcomed her son, Halo, in December 2023.

Halle Bailey snapped a gym selfie featuring herself and her adorable son, Halo, both dressed in black outfits — complete with matching bandanas.

How to Watch

Watch A Motown Christmas on NBC and Peacock.

Bailey posted the pic on her Instagram on September 19, captioning the image: "me & my bodyguard," followed by a red heart emoji. Since "Halo" is a Beyoncé song perhaps this is a reference to the Cowboy Carter country-pop bop, "Bodyguard?"

In the photo, Bailey and the 11-month-old are twinning as the singer takes a break on a foam block, but the pic goes into adorable overdrive when you spot Halo with his mouth agape, clearly amazed by his reflection in the gym mirror. And fans couldn't help but notice that the baby boy is the literal spitting image of his mother.

This isn't the only time the "Ungodly Hour" singer has posted an image of herself and Halo at the gym. On October 11 she shared another family gym session to her 9.1 million Instagram followers, writing the simple reminder: "life is beautiful."

Other Instagram posts of the mother and son from this past year include Bailey taking him to his first concert (Bruno Mars), and the two dressing as Lilo & Stitch for Halloween. 

Aside from inspiring smiles with adorable family photos, Bailey will also help bring some holiday joy when she co-hosts the new NBC primetime special, A Motown Christmas on December 11.
