Halsey shared a photo of BTS’ Suga with her baby

Suga officially turns 28 years old on March 9. Since South Korea is several hours ahead of the U.S., Halsey shared her birthday wish for Suga on March 8.

In the Instagram story, the singer shared a black-and-white photo strip of Suga. The singer-songwriter placed a birthday cake gif at the top of the photos. They captioned the story, “happy bday twin.”

The first photo shows Suga smiling while holding Halsey’s son, Ender. Halsey gave birth to Ender in July 2021, and a great deal of their album If I Can’t Have Love, I Want Power detailed her experience with pregnancy and thoughts on motherhood.

In the second photo, Suga appears to be talking while holding a drinking glass. The last photo in the photo strip shows Halsey and Suga smiling together for a mirror selfie.

BTS fans reacted to Halsey’s birthday post for Suga

After Halsey shared the photos of Suga on their Instagram story, “halsey” began trending on Twitter as fans discussed the post. In particular, fans found the photo with Halsey’s son and Suga to be adorable.

One fan wrote on Reddit, “The blurry B&W photo with the baby is too darn much! It’s too much Min Yoongi!”

Another fan wrote on Reddit, “Halsey’s birthday greeting was so sweet!!!! I remember Halsey said when she asked Yoongi to collab for Sugar’s Interlude, that she identifies the most with Yoongi’s wisdom and perspective. It’s so great to see them spending time in private and Yoongi looking so happy. And Halsey’s baby is so cute!”

“These photos are so precious! Happy Uncle Yoongi holding Halsey’s baby. I’m crying,” wrote a Reddit user.
