Actress Halle Bailey has opened up about her battle with severe postpartum depression.

The singer, who welcomed her son Halo in January, has spoken out to help others.

The 24-year-old posted a video on Snapchat and said: “I just wanted to speak a little bit about my postpartum journey as a new mom.

“I have severe, severe postpartum (depression) and I don’t know if any new moms can relate, but it’s to the point where it’s really bad and it’s hard for me to be separated from my baby for more than 30 minutes at a time before I start to kind of freak out.”
