Alec Baldwin joked about forgetting to mention his oldest daughter Ireland in an Instagram post celebrating his children

• Alec Baldwin made a post honoring his seven youngest children, who he shares with Hilaria Baldwin.
• Commenters quickly pointed out that he had left out his eldest daughter, 27-year-old Ireland.

Alec Baldwin acknowledged that he "forgot" his eldest daughter in a post where he said his seven younger children had gotten him through "some tough times."

On Thursday, Baldwin posted a series of photos of the seven children that he shares with wife Hilaria Baldwin: Carmen Gabriela, 9, Rafael Thomas, 7, Leonardo Ángel Charles, 6, Romeo Alejandro David, 4, Eduardo Pao Lucas, 2, María Lucía Victoria, 2, and Ilaria Catalina Irena, eight months.

"Seven reasons to carry on during some tough times," Baldwin wrote in the post's caption. "I'm not gonna lie, without my family, I don't know what my life would be."

People in the comments, however, were quick to point out that Baldwin had not included his 27-year-old daughter Ireland, who he shares with Kim Basinger.

"We forgot Billy Preston!" Baldwin wrote in the caption of a subsequent post Thursday about his eldest child, referencing the musician who was among those sometimes referred to as the "Fifth Beatle."

"This one, the first one, is about to make me a grandfather," Baldwin said of Ireland in the caption for that post. "Oy."

Ireland and her boyfriend RAC (whose given name is André Allen Anjos) are currently expecting their first child. The model said on a January episode of the "Girlboss Radio" podcast, per People, that she and Anjos plan to name their daughter Holland, so that she had "another country name."

Alec Baldwin and Basinger split in 2022, when Ireland was seven years old. In the past, she's poked fun at her relationship with her father, who once left her a voicemail in which he called the then-11-year-old Ireland a "rude, thoughtless little pig."
