Halle Bailey is getting candid about her feelings as a working mom.

The 24-year-old actress shared a few photos on her Snapchat as she traveled away from home for work, having to leave her baby boy behind. "Flying tonight to be somewhere for one day but having crippling anxiety without my son," Bailey wrote in the photo of her 9-month-old son Halo, which showed her on a plane looking sad.

"Any advice for moms who still can't handle when they have to leave for work?" Bailey asked.

She later added another photo on her Snapchat of a glass of champagne, writing, "Maybe a little bubbly will help."

The decision was not easy, but we believe it's the best path forward for both of us. I cherish the time we've spent together and the love we shared."

"Despite the changes in our relationship, our love for each other remains deep and true. We are still best friends and adore each other," DDG continued.
