- Hilaria and
Alec Baldwin are expecting their seventh child, they confirmed in a statement to People. - Hilaria also shared the moment she told their six children the news in a video to Instagram.
"We have 'somos un buen equipo' engraved on our wedding bands. We say that to each other all the time at home — that we're a good team," they said in the statement. "One of the most beautiful things my children have experienced with a big family is how the heart can grow with every new sibling."
"Our capacity to love continues to expand and we can't wait to embrace our new little one this fall!" the statement added.
Hilaria also shared the news via a video posted to Instagram.
"After many ups and downs over the past few years, we have an exciting up and a huge surprise: another Baldwinito is coming this fall," the caption of the video reads, in part. "We were pretty sure our family was complete, and we're beyond happy with this surprise."
"I'm sharing with you the moment we told the kids—as you can see, they are super excited!" the caption continued. "Our new baby is a very bright spot in our lives. A blessing and a gift during such uncertain times."
Hilaria and Alec already share daughters María Lucía Victoria, 13 months, and Carmen Gabriela, 8, and sons Rafael Thomas, 6, Leonardo Ángel Charles, 5, Romeo Alejandro David, 3½, and Eduardo "Edu" Pao Lucas, 18 months.
The pregnancy announcement comes weeks after Alec made headlines again for his involvement in the October 2021 shooting on the set of the "Rust" film, which resulted in the death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins.
Per the New York Times, on March 11, Alec's lawyer filed new documents stating that "he was not responsible for her death, since he had been assured that the gun did not contain any live ammunition and because he was not responsible for checking the ammunition or for firearm safety on the set."
Alec's latest legal filing also contained text messages exchanged between Alec and Hutchins' widower, which "showed how their relationship had deteriorated over time," the Times reported.
Hilaria posted the pregnancy news just over three weeks after announcing a break from social media.
"I love you all and know you worry so want to give you a heads up," she wrote in the post. "I might check in from time to time, dropping you a photo, and letting you know we are ok."
