Chloe And Halle Bailey Were Friends With Yara Shahidi Long Before Grown-Ish

Publish date: 2024-05-05

It's true! Sisters Chloe Bailey and Halle Bailey go way back with Yara Shahidi. Of course, Chloe and Halle are sisters, so they've known each other since the latter's birth, but they grew close with Shahidi sometime before 2018 when they started appearing on "Grown-ish." "Yara is one of our best friends, and even before the show we would always hang out together," Halle told Glamour of their close friendship, revealing that "Grown-ish" creator Kenya Barris actually gave her and her sister a part in the sitcom after seeing their relationship with Shahidi firsthand. It sounds like the sisters have made plenty of friends on-set too, though, as Halle noted, "We already knew Yara was an angel, but Francia [Raisa] and Emily [Arlook] and the boys too." Cute!

Halle previously gushed about her and Chloe's friendship with Shahidi during an interview with ABC Radio in 2018, admitting, "We love Yara so much, and just being around her all the time... people saw our connection. So, being able to get that opportunity... it formed naturally, and so, we're so grateful for that."
