Alec andHilaria Baldwinhave one of the most fascinating marriages in Hollywood today.
The two are clearly devoted to each other and their large brood of six kids.
Alec first introduced himself to Hilaria Thomas after spotting her at a New York City restaurant.
“My friend, @bocartist and I sat down (outside!)
and as I turned to my left I saw a woman who would change my life.
He handed her his card, and the rest was history.
“He didn’t kiss me for six weeks!
He shook my hands for six weeks.
and I’d say, ‘Nope, nope, nope.’
Then they’d say, ‘Maybe he just wants to be friends.'”
“I didn’t really think too much of it because we’re so different,” she explained.
So he’s somebody completely out of my world not someone I’d necessarily think of.”
Their relationship picked up speed after they moved in together
Once they knew, they knew.
Things moved pretty fast for the couple once they got comfortable with one another.
Alec Baldwin and Hilaria Thomas moved in together five months into their relationship (perOprah Daily).
It was then that the couple started talking about their future together.
Baldwin proposed to Thomas in April 2012.
“He brought me to Montauk, out by the lighthouse.
He’s not great at keeping secrets from me, which is a very good thing.
He told me earlier that he was going to propose.
We’re very organized,” she recalled (perNDTV).
He got on his knee, and I burst out crying."
The practical, organized, but fun-loving couple didn’t take long with wedding planning.
It wasn’t long after those spectacular nuptials that the two got to work on building their big family.
Hilaria announced the pregnancy in February 2013.
The couple shared the story of how they found out with Extra.
“Normally, I will be reading a book.
I come upstairs, and there’s a spider on the wall.
So then I hear that scream again, but it was not a spider.”
“It was followed by ‘I’m pregnant, I’m pregnant!’
“We are really sharing something special.”
“Having a stepchild is a delicate matter.
Especially one who is grown.
Next up was son Leonardo Angel Charles Baldwin, born on September 12, 2016.
“It’s a generational thing,” he admitted toElle Decor.
My father was like ‘Oh, I’ll make you understand!’
“I want to share with you that I am most likely experiencing a miscarriage,” she wrote.
“Furthermore, I have no shame or embarrassment with this experience.
I want to be a part of the effort to normalize miscarriage and remove the stigma from it.
There is so much secrecy during the first trimester.
This works for some, but I personally find it to be exhausting.
I’m nauseous, tired, my body is changing.
And I have to pretend that everything is just fine and it truly isn’t.
I don’t want to have to pretend anymore.
I hope you understand.”
She explained that there was a slim chance the pregnancy was viable and later confirmed she did miscarry.
Later that year, she miscarried again at 4 months (perBrides).
Hilaria welcomed another baby in 2020
Despite her struggles, Hilaria Baldwin did get pregnant again.
The Baldwins welcomed Eduardo Pau Lucas Baldwin was born on September 8, 2020 (perPeople).
Maria Lucia Victoria Baldwin was born on February 25, 2021 via surrogate.
Many of you may remember the loss of their sister at 4 months in the end of 2019.
There isn’t a day that goes by where we don’t ache for our daughter.”
