Alec Baldwin and family set to star in reality TV show about their ‘wild and crazy’ life
As the actor prepares to go on trial for the fatal shooting on the set of his neo-Western film ‘Rust’, Alec Baldwin and his wife Hilaria have announced they are set to star in a new reality TV show about their “wild and crazy” life with their seven children.
Alec Baldwin and his family are set to star in a new reality TV show about their “wild and crazy” life.
The Oscar nominee, 66, who has eight children, announced the project alongside his wife Hilaria Baldwin, 40, on Tuesday (04.06.24), with the couple saying they will appear in a TLC reality show called ‘The Baldwins’ with their seven kids.
Their news emerged as the actor prepares to go on trial for the fatal shooting on the set of his neo-Western film ‘Rust’.
They captioned a post about the show on Instagram: “Coming in 2025.”
The couple’s message showed them trying to wrestle their children Carmen, 10, Rafael, eight, Leonardo, seven, Romeo, six, Eduardo, three, María Lucía, also three, and Ilaria, 21 months, together for a family photo.
Alec added in a video clip: “We’re inviting you into our home to experience the ups and downs, the good, the bad, the wild and the crazy.
“Home is the place we love to be most.”
Hilaria stressed in the video they are “done having kids”.
Alec – who also has daughter Ireland, 28, with his 70-year-old actress ex-wife Kim Basinger – previously hinted his family would be making their reality TV debut in an episode of Kelly Ripa’s ‘Let’s Talk Off Camera’ podcast.
He said: “That reality show (possibility) has all been so we can stay home and just work from home.
“I’m desperate to try to work from New York.”
Kelly, 53, she would “so watch” the series and joked she thought the couple lived in a “complete f****** chaos machine” due to their seven kids.
Alec agreed and said he and Hilaria “don’t do a f****** thing anymore” as their kids have “taken over every aspect” of their lives.
The actor and Hilaria married in June 2012 and had their first child together the following year.
News of the couple’s reality show comes weeks after it was revealed Alec will go to trail for manslaughter over the death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins, after a judge denied a motion to dismiss the case.
Alec pleaded not guilty and the trial is set for July, and if convicted he faces up to 18 months in prison.
His attorneys said in a statement issued after the judge’s decision: “We look forward to our day in court.”
Mother-of-one Halyna, 42, was shot and killed on 21 October, 2021, while filming ‘Rust’ in New Mexico, after she was hit in the chest by a bullet fired from a prop firearm Alec was holding while rehearsing for a scene.
