Alec Baldwin reacted angrily to commentators who disagreed with his and his wife Hilaria Baldwin’s social media ads about their sixth child.
On Monday, Hilaria accessed Instagram to reveal that the couple welcomed a sixth child in her family. A photo she shared, taken by the “30 Rock” actor, showed her lying in bed with her six children, including the newborn whose name and sex they have not yet revealed.
The star put the caption of the photo “7” with a red heart emoji, a nod to his children Eduardo “Edu” Pao Lucas, 5 months, Romeo Alejandro David, 2, Leonardo Ángel Charles, 4, and Rafael Thomas, 5, besides the daughter Carmen Gabriela, 7 years old. Alec is also the father of his 25-year-old daughter, Ireland.
Hilaria’s post did not allow comments. However, Baldwin got reaction from his followers by sharing the same photo on his own Instagram account. Several critics criticized his caption, written in Spanish: “Mi vida …”

A social media user commented with a petition to know “who the mother is”, as Hilaria welcomed the couple’s fifth child last September, leaving the user confused because she “was not pregnant” with baby # 6.

“She gave birth six months ago. If it was a surrogate, just say so. If the baby was adopted, just say so. If the baby was the product of an affair and you decided to raise it with your wife, say this, “the commentator criticized the couple. “If you don’t want to say anything – why don’t you two stop posting constantly and begging for clickbait. Just raise your 100 children in private.”
Baldwin knocked back with a swearing response, writing, “You should shut up and mind your own business.”
Also in the comments section was a supporter of the couple, who asked himself “why are people so bad” and added: “As for the Spaniards, who cares.”

Baldwin even defended his family in a response that saw him blaming the rebellious behavior of the Americans.
“Because, basically, they are not very smart. Americans are people who know less about how to live a peaceful and healthy life than most of the civilized world,” wrote Baldwin.
Other critics criticized the couple for trying to just “call attention” to the baby’s posting, without providing details of their child’s arrival.
“I’m starting to think that some things are being done to get attention,” reacted one person. “Feeling like posting vague things just to get all kinds of comments. Who posts a new addition to a family and doesn’t care about it?

“Is this a distraction for I’m from Spain BS? What’s the game?” another questioned.
The couple’s baby announcement came weeks after Hilaria issued a public apology for her recent inheritance scandal, which saw a 37-year-old yoga / wellness expert explode in December, when it was discovered that she was not really born in Spain – as she had implied – and instead was born and raised in Boston, Massachusetts. Baldwin was also criticized for allegedly faking a Spanish accent. The accent of the bilingual mother of five has fluctuated noticeably over the years when she appeared on TV.
The controversy led Hilaria to rarely post on social media in the two months after the scandal. In early February, she apologized on Instagram, writing: “I spent the last month listening, reflecting and wondering how I can learn and grow. My parents raised my brother and me with two cultures, American and Spanish, and I feel a real feeling to belong to both. “

She continued: “The way I talked about myself and my deep connection with two cultures could have been better explained – I should have been more clear and sorry. I am proud of the way I was raised, and we are raising our children to share the same love and respect for both.

“Being vulnerable and striving to learn and grow is what we build our community with, and I hope to return to the supportive and kind environment we have built together,” concluded Baldwin.
After the news was released, Baldwin also revealed that his real name is Hillary.
In an interview with The New York Times at the time, Baldwin tried to correct some of the things she says are misconceptions about how she performed.

“The things I shared about me are very clear,” said Baldwin. “I was born in Boston. I spent time in Boston and Spain. My family now lives in Spain. I moved to New York when I was 19 and have lived here ever since. For me, I feel like I have spent 10 years sharing this story over and over . And now it seems that it is not enough. “
