Alec and Hilaria Baldwin’s seventh child is a girl named Ilaria Catalina Irena Baldwin. People Magazine says that Alec Baldwin, 64, and Hilaria Baldwin, 38, made a joint statement about the birth of their daughter.
“We’re so happy that our newest daughter has come into the world. Just as wonderful and full of love as all of our other children. Her Baldwinito brothers and sisters are very happy and are arguing about who she looks most like. We’re happy to give you Ilaria, who was born just a few days ago.”
The magazine says that the girl was born on September 22 and weighed 6 pounds and 13 ounces. Hilaria Baldwin also posted a short video to Instagram of how her baby and their other kids reacted when they saw Ilaria.
“She’s arrived! We can’t wait to show you our modest dream come true. She and I are both happy and healthy. Her Baldwinito siblings are connecting and welcoming her into our house today. Much love to everyone. We are delighted to share this fantastic news with you.”
They met at Sarma Melngailis’ Pure Food and Wine in New York in 2011. They have been together for 12 years and have had six more children together: Carmen, 9, Rafael, 7, Leonardo, 4, Romeo, 2, and Lucia (1). (8 years).
The relationship between Alec and Hilaria Baldwin
Alec and Hilaria Baldwin met for the first time in a New York restaurant in February 2011. She was there with a friend.
Alec wrote on Instagram (via Us Weekly) about what happened:
“On an uncommonly warm February evening, I strolled inside Pure Food and Wine on Irving Place. [Brendan O’Connell] and I sat (outside!) and as I glanced to my left, I spotted a lady who would transform my life.”
In a 2012 interview with The New York Times, Alec and Hilaria said that he went up to Hilaria but didn’t give her his phone number. Instead, he gave her a note telling her to call him.
“I was standing near the entrance with my pals when he approached and held my hand, saying, ‘I must know you.’”
Hilaria did call him in the end, and they went on a few dates before getting together. But things moved slowly between them, and after just a few dates, the yoga teacher began to think about what their relationship would be like.
“For six weeks, he shook my hand. We’d have the most romantic dinner date, followed by him dropping me off at my door and shaking my hand.”
After getting to know each other for five months, Hilaria Baldwin and Alec moved in together. They were soon engaged. In April 2012, the actor’s agent told People Magazine about the news.
“Yes, you’re right! Alec asked Hilaria to marry him over the weekend, and we’re all very happy for them. Tomorrow is Alec’s birthday. What a great way to celebrate!”
Two months after they got engaged, they got married in June 2012 at the Basilica of St. Patrick’s Old Cathedral in New York. Some famous people who came to their wedding were Lorne Michaels, Tina Fey, Alec Baldwin’s brothers Billy and Stephen Baldwin, Woody Allen, and Mariska Hargitay. Alec and Hilaria Baldwin had their first child, Carmen Gabriela, on August 23, 2013.
She was born 26 years after Alec. In 2016, the Saturday Night Live star told Elle Decor how their kids’ different ages have changed how they raise them.
“It’s a generational difference. I’m a lot older, and when I was a youngster, there was no such thing as haggling and negotiating. Making them comprehend. ‘Oh, I’ll make you understand!’ said my father. People used to strike their children with cooking utensils, and my mother used to hit us with a curtain rod. But [Hilaria] is the ideal mother; she respects and honors them.”
Alec Baldwin used to be married to actress Kim Basinger. They had a daughter together named Ireland Baldwin, who became a model.
