Hilaria Baldwin hit back at accusations of having "daddy issues" regarding her 26-year age gap with her husband Alec Baldwin, and said that, in fact, sometimes she's his mommy.
Hilaria, 39, met Alec, 65, in 2011 when she was 27 and he was 52, and the pair got engaged and married just over a year after meeting.
Speaking to Romper in an interview published Wednesday, Hilaria addressed their age gap.
"Am I his mommy?" she said. "Sometimes I'm his mommy. Sometimes. At the beginning of our relationship, everyone was like, 'She must have daddy issues because she's married to somebody older.' But it's actually the opposite."
Hilaria and Alec have seven children together: Carmen, 9, Rafael, 8, Leonardo, 6, Romeo, 5, Eduardo, 2, María Lucía, 2, and Ilaria, who is 9 months old.
Hilaria told Romper that the pair don't have plans to have more children.
"This is probably, most definitely, almost completely my last baby," the podcaster said. "I'm always afraid to say it. I was putting away my maternity clothes recently and was like, 'I'm afraid to give them away, because then I'll find out I'm pregnant.'"
Hilaria said that she is not on birth control and Baldwin isn't interested in getting a vasectomy.
"I feel awful when I'm on birth control; it makes me depressed," she said."Every single time I have a baby, my OB writes down the vasectomy doctor on a Post-it, and I bring it home to Alec."
Hilaria added: "He hasn't done it yet."
Hilaria also discussed the struggle of parenting seven children, adding that the family rarely goes on holiday because she doesn't know "how to travel with seven kids yet."
"With two, I felt like I could still have a level of control; I was trying to micromanage everything. And once I got to three, I just released and was like, 'OK, it's going to be chaos. We are outnumbered. You've got to let it go,'" she said. "I'm probably like 90% gentle parenting. Though every once in a while, you have to say: 'Stop it. Full stop. Right now.'"
