Halle Bailey, known for her role in 'The Little Mermaid', has ditched veganism after indulging her pregnancy craving for meat.
Bailey gave birth to her first child, a son named Halo, in January. Bailey shared with her fans that she made a significant change to her diet during her pregnancy, and although she hasn't fully returned to being vegan, she wanted to let her fans know about this change.
She said in an Instagram Live chat that showed her eating with her eight-month-old baby in the background when followers asked if she was still vegan: “And the answer is: not anymore. And the reason being is, I think I told some of you guys that when I was pregnant, I had just, like, started craving meat.”
The singer said that she had been vegan for 13 years and when she started craving meat, "I was just like, well, I'm gonna give my body what it wants right now because I'm doing a really hard job of growing a human, and I also wanted to make sure Halo was getting the proper nutrients and things he needed."
She noted that she still loves and eats vegan food most of the time. "If I have an inkling or craving for chicken or something, I'll eat it," she explained. "But I don't eat a lot of meat. But it's like if I want it, I'm gonna have it and then that's it."
