Alec Baldwin—who shares a daughter with ex Kim Basinger and seven kids with wife Hilaria Baldwin—joked about what his ideal Father’s Day would entail in an exclusive interview with E! News.
Alec Baldwin wants to be the boss, baby.
That’s why the 30 Rock alum—who is dad to 29-year-old daughter Ireland Baldwin with ex Kim Basinger and seven little ones with wife Hilaria Baldwin—believes the ideal Father’s Day entails “me time” where he gets to call the shots.
“I’d ride my bike to Virginia,” the New York-based actor quipped to E! News at the 2025 Gotham TV Awards on June 2. “I’ll have a long time with fresh air.”
After all, according to the 67-year-old, it’s already challenging enough finding alone time with Hilaria, with whom he shares children Carmen, 11, Rafael, 9, Leonardo, 8, Romeo, 7, Eduardo, 4, María Lucía, 4, Ilaria, 2.
“We escape our house by the skin of our teeth to leave our kids,” he shared of their typical date nights. “A 90 minute dinner, and then we go home and go to bed.”
But for Hilaria, she’d rather spend her special day immersed in family chaos. As she noted on Instagram last month, “Mother’s Day is being together.”
“Remembering the journey of making these little people,” she continued, sharing photos from her pregnancies through the years. “Playgrounds, climbing trees, homework, random Baldwinito fitness class.”
And these days, she’s also embraced the title of grandmother after Ireland welcomed a daughter named Holland in 2023.
“It’s so wonderful because we were pregnant together, but just barely,” Hilaria, 41, shared on a March episode of TLC’s The Baldwins, explaining how her youngest child is “almost nine months older than Ireland’s baby.”
“It’s unique for a stepmom and stepdaughter relationship, because that’s technically what we are,” she continued of her and Ireland’s dynamic. “First of all, I’m 11 years older than her. I didn’t raise her and we find tremendous humor in that, and we always have found tremendous humor.”

“My mother taught me about second acts. And third ones, too,” Alec wrote in tribute when she died. “She spent the last 25 years of her life as a fighter and a champion for the cause to which she devoted so much energy.”

Baby of the Baldwin family Stephen has been married to Kennya Deodato since June 10, 1990.
They’re parents to daughters Alaia, born Jan. 23, 1993, and daughter Hailey, born Nov. 22, 1996.
Stephen’s First Grandkid

A certain delighted new aunt gushed on her Instagram Story, “been hard to keep this to myself, my beautiful niece is here and she is PERFECT…Auntie Hails loves you sooooo much.”
Hailey Becomes a Bieber
While they were friends for a decade, it was after a rather whirlwind romance that Hailey wed Justin Bieber in a no-frills New York courthouse ceremony on Sept. 13, 2018.
They further sealed the deal with more lavish nuptials in South Carolina on Sept. 30, 2019, allowing dad Stephen to walk the bride down the aisle and sister Alaia and cousin Ireland to serve as a bridesmaids.
While she swapped her maiden name for her similarly famous married name soon after she and Justin legally wed, it wasn’t a decision Hailey took lightly.
“It took some getting used to, for sure,” she told Bustle in 2019. “It’s definitely strange, it takes adjusting.”
Growing up a Baldwin, she added, “I’m very proud of my family name. I come from a great family with a history in this industry.”
The couple revealed in May 2024 that Hailey was pregnant with their first child together.
Baby Bieber
On Aug. 23, 2024, Justin revealed that son Jack Blues Bieber had arrived.
“WELCOME HOME,” the singer captioned a photo of the newborn’s squee-inducing tiny foot juxtaposed against one of his mom’s immaculately manicured fingers.
Justin’s mom, Pattie Mallette, wrote on X, “CONGRATULATIONS @justinbieber & Hailey. I LOVE YOU FOREVER BABY JACK.”
Stephen reposted the sentiment, adding, “Amen. Congratulations to you and may God continue to bless our family.”
