But wait, who is the father to her baby, you ask? It turns out, the “Without Me” songstress has been low-key dating a guy named Alev Aydin for months now, and he appears to be the dad! We went ahead and made you guys a complete guide to their relationship, including how they met, how long they’ve been together and so much more. Here’s what you need to know…
Who Is Halsey’s Boyfriend, Alex Aydin?
Naturally, after the news hit the web that he and Halsey were expecting a baby together, many fans started to wonder — who even is Aydin? Well, we did some research, and he’s actually a very acclaimed screenwriter and producer. He was behind movies and TV shows like Cruel Hearts, Lonely Boy, Small Shots, Controller, HipMen: Los Angeles and more. He is currently 37 years old (which makes him 11 years older than Halsey), and he’s Turkish! Based off of his Instagram (which you can follow here), he loves basketball, traveling and photography.

Plus, he’s very excited about becoming a dad! Yep, he left a super sweet comment on her announcement post, which made all of our hearts burst.
“Heart so full, I love you, sweetness,” he wrote. The brunette beauty commented back, “I love you! And I love this mini human already!”
How Long Have They Been Dating?
The two stars have kept their romance pretty quiet up until now, which is why the baby news was especially shocking. But according to reports, they actually started dating all the way back in the fall of 2020.
The couple “have been dating for several months,” a source recently told People Magazine. “Halsey has been low-key about their relationship. They were spending a lot of time at her house in the fall though, and it was obvious that she was happy.”
They were spotted together for the first time in October 2020 — when photographers caught the pair picking up art supplies side by side in Los Angeles — but at the time, nobody thought anything about it. They have stayed pretty tight-lipped about their love, however, Halsey did share one selfie of her and Aydin earlier this month, in honor of the new year.
“Grateful for you this year and every year, sweets. Seni çok seviyorum,” she wrote on her Instagram Stories, which means, “I love you so much,” in Turkish.

It’s still unclear how exactly they met, but it looks like they have known each other for a while now, since Aydin actually posted a pic with Halsey back in 2019! At the time, he shared a snap of himself and the 26-year-old enjoying a Lakers game, which he captioned, “Back when I did a very cool thing I’ll prob never get to do again — massive thanks @iamhalsey for the courtside experience. Only ones not on our phones, actually watching the game.”
What Has Halsey Said About Becoming A Mom?
Unfortunately, the star previously suffered from a miscarriage, which she described as the “most inadequate she’s ever felt.”
“Here I am achieving this out-of-control life, and I can’t do the one thing I’m biologically put on this earth to do. Then I have to go onstage and be this sex symbol of femininity and empowerment? It is demoralizing,” she told The Guardian in February 2020. But Halsey still seemed hopeful, adding that becoming a mom was “looking like something that’s gonna happen for me. That’s a miracle.”
Halsey suffers from a disorder called endometriosis, which is when “tissue similar to the tissue that normally lines the inside of your uterus — the endometrium — grows outside your uterus.”
“I’ve been really open about my struggles with reproductive health, about wanting to freeze my eggs and having endometriosis and things like that,” she wrote when her album Manic came out in January 2020. “For a long time, I didn’t think that having a family was something I was going to be able to do, and it’s very, very important to me.”
She continued, “Then one day my OB-GYN tells me it’s looking like I maybe can, and I was so moved. It felt like this ascension into a different kind of womanhood. All of a sudden, everything is different. I’m not going to go tour myself to death because I have nothing else to do and I’m overcompensating for not being able to have this other thing that I really want. Now, I have a choice. I’ve never had a choice before.”
Who Else Has Halsey Been Linked To?
Before her relationship with the movie producer started, Halsey dated some of Hollywood’s biggest stars. She briefly dated The 1975 member Matt Healy in 2015. Then, she was in an on-and-off relationship with G-Eazy for more than a year, before they officially split in 2018. After that, she was linked to the musician Yungblud. Rumors first started to swirl about their relationship in January 2019, but because they were so private about it, it’s unclear how long they were together or when they officially broke up.
Then, in September 2019, she was caught holding hands with American Horror Story actor Evan Peters. They made their love Instagram official a few weeks later when they attended the American Horror Story 100th Episode Celebration together. They never gave any insight into why they split, but they ultimately went their separate ways. There were also some brief speculation that the musician was dating Cara Delevingne in September 2020, after The Sun reported that they were “hooking up.”
