HALSEY BECOMES A MOM
The star who welcomed their child with lover and producer Alev Aydin noted that they tried hard to get pregnant. Before motherhood, Halsey was diagnosed with Endometriosis.
Halsey and Alev became parents last month. In the image shared, the “Walls Could Talk” singer posted a warm family photo on their Instagram page. The picture seemed to have been taken just after the baby was born.
Halsey propped the infant on their chest while Alev stood very close, looking into their eyes. While the couples shared an intense moment, Halsey introduced their child.
The star mom is yet to share the gender of the baby, but the name Ender Ridley Aydin was announced. Ender is a popular male Turkish name that means "rare."
After their surprising pregnancy announcement, Halsey continued to chronicle their journey. They posted several maternity photos of them reveling in the joys of pre-motherhood.

The songwriter has recently released their new album, “If I Can’t Have Love, I Want Power.” Halsey’s album dropped on August 27, 2021, under Capitol records — it is her 4th studio album, and it has 13 tracks.
It was executive-produced by Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross. The album also comes with an hour-long film experience that Halsey wrote, and Colin Tiley directed it. The film premiered at IMAX Theaters on Saturday.
