Last May, Alec and Hilaria Baldwin welcomed their fourth child together, a boy they named Romeo Alejandro. Romeo is Alec’s fifth child overall, including Ireland Baldwin. But Alec and Hilaria just can’t stop having babies – Romeo was their fourth kid in FIVE years. Hilaria just won’t give her lady bits a break. And what’s worse is that Hilaria still wants more kids. I’m sorry, but I can’t. Alec is 60 damn years old. It’s irresponsible to have all these kids with a man that age.
He’s a doting dad to four young children with his second wife Hilaria. But Alec Baldwin isn’t done adding to his family just yet. The actor, 60, who also has an adult daughter from his first marriage to Kim Basinger, told Ellen DeGeneres that Hilaria wants another girl.
The 30 Rock star and the yoga instructor share one daughter Carmen, five, and three boys – Rafael, three, Leonardo, two, and eight-month-old Romeo. He joked with the comedienne that at one time, the couple had 11 strollers at home.
Hilaria joined her famous husband on the daytime chat show for a game of Heart to Heart, Cheek to Cheek and confirmed that she’s keen to get pregnant again. Hilaria explained: ‘When I told Carmen I was pregnant with another boy, she came to me and said, ‘Mommy, how about you have another girl then you can have another boy?’ And I told her it doesn’t work that way.’
When Ellen asked what would happen if the next baby isn’t a girl, Hilaria replied: ‘I would keep on trying… I’m serious.’
Ugh. It’s been eight months since she gave birth – I’m absolutely shocked that Hilaria isn’t already pregnant. Maybe she is and she and Alec are just “teasing” the fifth pregnancy. And now we know – if they get yet another boy, Hilaria will get pregnant for a sixth time, all to get another daughter. The Baldwin-Duggars, I swear to God.

I saw her on Ellen, she is very charismatic and gorgeous!!
When people keep having one kid after another – and especially when they keep trying to have one of a certain gender – I wonder if they think the children they already have are not good enough. As if some kind of void needs to be filled. Don’t they realize that kids sometimes also want to have the focus of the parents on them alone? How do you do that with a whole group of children at home?
I came from a large family and never felt like I got one-on-one attention. I’ve felt happy that I’ve been able to give that to my two kids.
I have five, the last birth being twins. I don’t think the number matters if you have the means to provide for the children. I think Alec is a tad old to keep adding on. Not that many shopping days to Xmas. Hopefully, he will be around for a long time to nurture his kids. I agree about the gender. Drives me crazy someone just keeps getting pregnant to get that girl/boy….a Kate Hudson thing. Whatever, their kids are adorable.
Only advice I have is not three.
Those kids in the last pic all look so much like their dad.
The SHADE.
Hahahahahhajajajajaj
I heard an interview with him a few years ago talking about what was missing from his life, and that he wanted to meet someone with whom he could raise a family. I think he’s into this as much as she is, especially since he comes from a large family.
“Irresponsible” was my thought as well, Kaiser.
I agree that it’s irresponsible for a man to be having this many young children at 60. He can take care of them financially for the rest of their lives, sure, but he likely won’t live to be in their lives as long as they deserve.
Yeah, that was the point I was trying to make above. I knew a lawyer who started his family after 50. It took its toll on he and his sons. Later on, he seemed more like a grandpa. I agree with you @Case, that it isn’t really fair to the kids. Not trying to be negative, hope he lives a long time and is there for the family.
While I wouldn’t have babies with a man of that age, life isn’t predictable. My father died early; his mother died when he was 9. Things happen and having children young isn’t a guarentee.
I’m sorry Muffy. You’re so right, life isn’t predictable. I think generally speaking, one expects a younger parent to go through life with their children. But, as in your life and many others, something else happens. I remember in Sunday school, our teacher said God laughs when we make plans. Do hope you’re happy, sorry for your loss at such a young age and your dad’s loss as well, your grandmother.
There are also increased risks of autism and schizophrenia amongst grandchildren of geriatric fathers… Epigenetics is a thing; it’s not because you can still shoot that the quality is still there
I mean, the header pic kinda says it all, doesn’t it.
With his temper how does he stay calm in front of his small children when they are all having a “fit” (we know all kids have them).
It’s not like he’s home alone dealing with fits and tantrums like a regular parent. They have a ton of hired help. (Which, to their credit, they’ve never tried to hide.)
Hilaria seems like a very loving and involved mom. Alec probably does what’s feasible around his work, ability, and interests. Should they have 5 & 6? I say no, but Id say that about any family.
Just because you can doesn’t mean you should.
I remember my doctor telling me that it takes a full 18 months for your body to recover from pregnancy and childbirth, and to follow that timeline before trying for a second child.
That’s the WHO recommendation too. Pregnancies take a toll on our bodies, even if we’re super healthy like she is.
Dear Alec and Hilaria,
Please don’t.
With their means they could gender select. I read a blind a while back that was all about how Hilaria wants to be the only Hollywood wife to have 6 kids with same dad. I don’t always believe the blind items, I’m not that big of a sucker, however I completely believe this blind because it matches with her character. So it surprised if she is using that statement from her daughter about wanting to meet trying for a daughter just as an excuse to keep having more to eventually get to 6.
The IG post at the time is a prime example of what happens when kids don’t get enough attention from their parents. They are literally fighting for her attention. My favorite movie is It’s Complicated, came out in 2008, and in the movie they are joking and making fun of Alec’s character for being too old for trying to have a baby with his 30 something 2nd wife. That was 11 YEARS ago and it was thought to be ridiculous, I wonder if he sees the irony in that.
My problem is really with the number of kids, it’s the spacing. You don’t really get to enjoy and remember a child’s babyhood when they come that close together. It all becomes a blur.
I have four, but they’re spaced over a decade. Each got some one on one with Mommy. I like that.
Rich people problems. (They have Nannies, chefs, housekeepers, etc to help them so they figure “why not”.)
It may make him feel young again and virile and she, feeling fertile and voluptuous. Some couples seem to like pregnancy if it’s a smooth and positive experience (for others, it is a very difficult experience). I wonder with couples who keep having kids immediately into marriage and one after the other, whether they will be able to stay together once they aren’t in “reproduction mode” and feeling each other that way, she always pregnant, he the one who made her so. Hope this makes sense but it’s something I’ve thought about in the past in particular with celebrity couples who keep popping them out one after another…
She sounds completely unhinged. She says she’ll keep having babies until she gets another girl..? How do we even begin to unpack this?
