How Hilaria Baldwin Is “Alpha Parent” to Her, Alec Baldwin’s 7 Kids

Watch: Hilaria Baldwin Says 26-Year Age Gap With Alec Baldwin “Sounds Ridiculous”

Hilaria Baldwin is sharing an inside look at her and Alec Baldwin’s parenting styles.

The Dancing With the Stars alum explained how she and her husband navigate life with their seven kids—Carmen, 12, Rafael, 11, Leonardo, 9, Romeo, 8, Eduardo, 5, Maria Lucia, 5, and Ilaria, 3,—and why their differing roles has led to her being the more dominant figure.

“Alec and I are both extremely fiery,” Hilaria shared on the July 29 episode of the Whine Down with Jana Kramerpodcast. “I believe—and he would say this [too]—I’m the alpha parent. There’s certain things that he knows he has to ask my permission for with them.”

“It’s like, ‘Oh, can they have this whatever,’” Hilaria continued. “And I’m like, ‘No. They cannot have this whatever.’ [Or] ‘Can they go?’ ‘No. They cannot.’”

Yet, the yoga instructor noted that Alec—also dad to daughter Ireland, 30, with ex-wife Kim Basinger—has responsibilities of his own, such as their “social schedule.”

As Hilaria emphasized, “We all have hats that we wear.”

And The Baldwins star proved that while her family may be in the spotlight, she experiences common mishaps that other moms with many kids can likely relate to.

“Trust me, I miscount them,” Hilaria jokingly admitted to host Jana Kramer. “I’m that mom [when] somebody’s doing something, I go through all the other names and find I’m like, ‘Whoever you are, stop doing what you’re doing.’”

And as she and the 30 Rock star watch their kids achieve milestones, the couple—who tied the knot in 2012—are passing down inspirational messages to them.

“I want my kids to grow up having hope,” Alec shared with E! News at the premiere of the documentary Gaslit June 12, “because right now it’s more hopeless than I’ve ever seen.”

The 68-year-old continued, “We’ve got to continue to fight to prove to our children that you got to keep fighting. You got to have hope, and you got to keep fighting to take the reins of power in our society, and that responsibility—that awesome responsibility—away from people who are going to abuse it.”
