Halsey and Alev split in April 2023, but they plan to co-parent amicably
Halsey surprised fans in Jan. 2021 when they revealed they were pregnant with Alev Aydin, whom they had been quietly dating since 2019. The “Without Me” hitmaker, 28, and Alev, 40, surprised fans again when news of their separation made headlines on April 25, 2023, with reports saying that Halsey requested full custody of their 1-year-old child, Ender, in a Los Angeles court. And although the request made it appear that Halsey and Alev ended on rough terms, it’s quite the opposite, according to an EXCLUSIVE HollywoodLife insider.
“Their split was completely amicable,” the source revealed to HL. “And she only filed for sole custody because she’s going on tour and Ender will be with them. But they are planning to co-parent their son together. It was just a formality that needed to be done, so she could take Ender with them.”

Halsey also described their romance as the stars aligning in a 2021 interview with Allure. “Alev and I have been really good friends for four years. And when the stars aligned, our relationship became romantic and it was pretty evident that he and I were both like, ‘Oh, my gosh! You’re the person I’m supposed to start a family with,’” they recalled.
They also commented on why their relationship was hidden for so long. “Nobody knew I was dating someone. As if people were entitled to an update, like, ‘I’ve met someone, we’re going on dates, it’s getting serious, they’ve moved in, we’re planning a child, we are having a baby, we had a baby, this is the gender,” Halsey noted. “I signed up to give my whole life away; my loved ones didn’t.”
Alev And Halsey Have Matching Tattoos
Alev and Halsey took their blissful love to the tattoo shop in 2020, where they each got the word, “seeds”, on one of their feet. To make things cuter, they each have the word printed in each other’s handwriting, according to their tattoo artist, Amanda Lynn Overmire-Robb, of Liquid Tattoo in Yucca Valley, Calif.
The tattoo artist shared the above images of the lovers’ experience in June of 2022 and added some commentary in the caption. “Today I met the sweetest two people. Ashley and Alev. You may know her better as HALSEY @iamhalsey,” Amanda began. “‘Seeds’ is for planting seeds. She said this is cosmicly (SIC) the best week to plant seeds in your life. I agree.”
Alev Supports Black Lives Matter
In June 2020, during the summer busy with Black Lives Matter protests following George Floyd’s murder, Alev shared an email he received from The Bail Project to protest the police response to peaceful protests. “The law enforcement response to these peaceful protests has been horrifying. And the way these police departments are insulated by our politicians and our judges is a sick joke,” he slammed in the caption. “In NY alone, mere hours ago, a judge ruled that protestors arrested for curfew can be detained for over 24 hours, no processing, no appearance before a judge, all writs are denied in BK, BX, and Manhattan.”
“Black communities have paid a heavy biological tax bc of prevailing racist social structures and attitudes in the medical community that devalues them based on accepted (racist) assumptions that black people are more intrinsically genetically vulnerable than other racial groups,” he wrote four days later. “Centuries of systemic inequality and oppression are still explained away by falsely citing genetic ancestry. The link in my bio directs to a list that @blklivesmatter put together to help redistribute wealth to orgs that center black people.”
