Alec Baldwin Teases Idea of Having Another Baby Just a Day Before Wife Hilaria Announces Possible Miscarriage
Just a day before his wife, Hilaria Baldwin, candidly revealed she was “most likely experiencing a miscarriage,” Alec Baldwin teased the idea of welcoming another baby. During a visit to The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on Wednesday, April 3, the Saturday Night Live star dished that he wouldn’t be against expanding their ever-growing brood.
“We would have another one. We always say when the baby comes, you look at the baby and you’re like, ‘What are we gonna do, send it back?'” Alex quipped on what was his 61st birthday. He jokingly added, “All of our kids are like magical. So, we would have another one and then after that … my wife would have to have her second husband or next marriage.”
Alec and Hilaria — who are already the parents to daughter Carmen, 5, and sons Rafael, 3, Leonardo, 2, and Romeo, 10 months together — have been flip-flopping back and forth as to whether they should have another kiddo. The Boss Baby star has another child, 23-year-old Ireland Baldwin, with ex Kim Basinger. Unfortunately, another Baldwin baby is currently out of the cards for the pair after Hilaria, 35, shared the news of her likely miscarriage with her more than 500,000 followers on Instagram.
“I always promised myself that if I were to get pregnant again, I would share the news with you guys pretty early, even if that means suffering a public loss,” she wrote in the caption of a pic of her wearing only a bra and underwear. “I don’t want to have to pretend anymore. I hope you understand.”
The mom-of-four explained that the “chances are very, very small that this is a viable pregnancy” because, even though the embryo has a heartbeat, “it isn’t strong, and the baby isn’t growing very much,” Hilaria wrote. “So we wait — and this is hard. So much uncertainty.”
Although suffering a miscarriage is a huge pill to swallow, the “Mom Brain” podcast host said there’s a silver lining through all the pain. “I am so blessed with my amazing doctor, my dear friends and my loving family,” she gushed. “My husband and my four very healthy babies help me keep it together and have the perspective of how truly beautiful life is, even when it occasionally seems ugly. The luck and gratitude I feel that I am my babies’ mommy, is wonderfully overwhelming and comforting.”
We’re thinking of you, Hilaria!
