Halsey splits from father of child and requests full physical custody of their son

Singer-songwriter Halsey has split from their partner, Alev Aydin, after three years of dating.

It comes as they sent a summon on April 5, asking a judge for joint physical custody of their son.

The former couple first met in 2018, when filmmaker Alev, 40, was set to write a screenplay for a biopic about the Grammy-nominated singer.

The pair’s friendship developed into a relationship in 2020, with the couple getting matching tattoos in June of that year.

Halsey, 28, whose real name is Ashley Nicolette Frangipane, gave birth to the couple’s son, Ender Ridley Aydin, in July 2021.

Halsey has filed documents outlining the legal custody schedule for their son, requesting full physical custody and joint legal custody of Ender, with Alev to have ‘reasonable visitation’, according to The Blast.

The Without Me singer wants to split the costs of establishing paternity and attorney fees with Alev, however, child support has not been mentioned in the documents.

The HipMen: Los Angeles director and Small Shots co-creator was set to write Halsey’s biopic, but it never came to fruition.

Upon being asked by a fan what had happened to the project in May 2021, Halsey responded: “bc alev was supposed to be writing it the past 3 years and we slowly fell in love instead. you know the rest! [sic].”

Halsey and Alev were last publicly seen together at Tere’s Mexican Grill in Los Angeles in October last year. The songstress uploaded a sweet post about Alev on Valentine’s Day this year, adding a picture of the pair kissing.

The reasons for their split are not currently known, nor has either party made reference to their breakup as of yet.

A source told In Touch of the singer’s break up: "It is an amicable split, they are coparenting." They also continued to state that the parents share a mutual dedication to their son.

They continued: "[Halsey] is going on tour – this is a formality."

Halsey has announced they will be performing three gigs in the summer, on June 24 in Florida, June 30 in Indiana, and July 2 in California.

Alongside running her own make-up brand, About-Face Beauty, they also have acting roles in Ti West's 1985-set three-quel MaXXXine and indie action crime drama Americana.
