Alec and Hilaria Baldwin aren’t letting multiple miscarriages stop them from having another baby!
In their first public appearance since Hilaria announced she had a miscarriage earlier this month, the couple stepped out for the American Museum of Natural History gala on Thursday.
On the red carpet, they opened up about their devastating loss and hopes to welcome just one more child into the world. Speaking to Entertainment Tonight, the 35-year-old actress said:
“I’m doing as best as you can. I’m much better than I was last week and coming out and talking about it and sharing I think has been very healing for me.”
With her 61-year-old spouse by her side, Hilaria continued:
“I have got a very good husband who has been there with me the whole time. Bringing me into the surgery, sort of being there when I wake up.”
The couple have four children together: daughter Carmen Gabriela, 6; as well as sons Rafael Thomas, 4, Leonardo Ángel Charles, 2, and Romeo Alejandro David, 17 months. They’ve tried repeatedly for baby number five, but, tragically, to no avail.

Hilaria suffered her first miscarriage in April. She shared the news on social media to update her fans and help erase the stigma from society. Earlier this month, she repeated the process after suffering her second miscarriage.
On Thursday, she admitted opening up about both miscarriages helped her heal and made each loss more “real,” sharing with reporters:
“I believe, when you go through something difficult, the sooner you make it into something real, you can do something with it. And it was something that you don’t want to be real… I kept on waking up and thinking it was a bad dream and it wasn’t, but the more that you talk about it, the more you make it real, and when it’s real, then you can work on it.”
In addition to grieving over their heartbreaking losses, the couple will continue to try for a fifth child. The Motherless Brooklyn actor, who is also dad to 24-year-old daughter Ireland with ex-wife Kim Basinger, said:
“If you have kids, and if you’re like us, sometimes you feel like you can’t stop having kids. Every time we have them, we’re like, ‘This is great. Let’s have more!’”
Hilaria added:
“We can’t end on that note. I don’t want to. At least, we’re trying not to end on that note. Cause that was a sad note.”
Alec agreed, responding:
“Yeah, we’re gonna have another one.”
Great to hear!
Wishing the couple the best of luck in their pregnancy journey!
