Surprising Reason Why Alec Baldwin Doesn’t Want More Kids
A-list celebrity Alec Baldwin may be the leading man in many television shows and films, but as a dad, he plays a supportive role for his family and kids. As he puts it, his wife is the star at home and he has no choice but to abide by her rules. The kids love and adore him, but as soon as Hilaria walks in, he seemingly ceases to exist.
Lonely Much?
Speaking to People at the premiere of Drunk Parents in New York City, the 60-year-old actor said that his family dynamic sometimes leaves him lonely. Though he put it out as a joke, he said that he feels terrible, sad, and lonely as soon as his wife walks through the door.
Baldwin and 35-year-old Hilaria have four children – daughter Carmen Gabriela who’s five, and sons Romeo Alejandro David (10 months old), Leonardo Ángel Charles (two-and-a-half years old), and Rafael Thomas (three-and-a-half years old). Baldwin also has another daughter, 23-year-old Ireland, from his previous marriage to Kim Basinger.
Still, the SNL star is sympathetic to the situation his hardworking wife finds herself in. He tries to help her out, but the kids always want their mom. Even when the babysitter is around, they still insist on being with their mother and always want her attention. And considering the fact that she is a busy mom with a full-time job, Hilaria and Baldwin can’t always find the opportunity to spend alone time together. According to him, he does really well with the kids but becomes invisible the minute they spot Hilaria.
Another One?
Recently, the couple has been discussing having another child, hopefully, to give little Carmen a baby sister. However, Baldwin is apprehensive about the whole idea. Hilaria is the one pushing the agenda, with the actor not feeling up to the challenge of raising yet another kid.
As it stands, Baldwin will be 85 when his kids graduate from school. From the way he jokes about the issue, he clearly doesn’t want to be too old that he misses out on his children’s teenage years. According to him, his friends are always teasing him that by the time the kids start getting into mischief and try to sneak out in the middle of the night, he’ll already be deaf and won’t be able to hear a sound.
Despite admitting that he doesn’t feel up to it, Baldwin hasn’t completely shut out the possibility of fathering a sixth child. As he told PEOPLE magazine in an interview, the couple will have to wait and see what the future brings. Isn’t that a glimmer of hope?
Alec Baldwin is the eldest of the Baldwin brothers, all of whom are actors. It seems that for them, acting is a family business. Plying his trade as an actor, writer and a producer is what Baldwin does best. As if that’s not enough, he also doubles up as a talented comedian.
After divorcing first wife Kim Basinger in 2002, the actor married Hilaria Thomas in 2012. The two began dating a year before and got engaged in early 2012. In June that year, they said their vows at St. Patrick’s Old Cathedral in New York City, and have been happily married ever since.
