The Couple Is Opening Their Own Shop In Oregon Called 'Good Times'
Back in April, RAC took to Instagram to announce that the couple, who has been together for over a year now, was opening a shop together in Gearhart, Oregon, called Good Times! In the caption, he wrote, “Some big news! We’re opening up a shop on the Oregon coast called -> @goodtimes. It’s in the beautiful town of Gearhart, right on the beach.”
“We’re still getting it all ready but we’re so excited and can’t wait to share,” he continued, thanking @ginggerbreaad for coming up with their logo design. Ireland dropped three red heart emoji and three fire emojis in the comments of the post as fans and famous friends showered the post with more heart emojis to show their approval.
Ireland actually talked about the business in a TikTok video from back in April. While answering fan questions, she said that she "frequently" gets asked whether or not she has a job and alluded to her new shop in the video.
“I am a business owner. I just started a business with my boyfriend. We are opening up a café, wine bar, and a boutique and we are starting a brand together. That is one part of what I do,” she explained.
Ireland said that she is also a “foster rescue dog mom,” saying that she works in adoption with foster and rescue dogs. “I am in the works of starting my own rescue and have been for a while now,” she added.
She added that she’s also a screenwriter, although she freely confessed that she hasn’t made anything “yet,” adding, “Everyone has to start somewhere.”
Ireland Baldwin also addressed speculation that she still receives an allowance from her famous parents in another TikTok video. The video was shot back in August when she was still 26. Ireland has since turned 27.
“At different points in my life, my parents have definitely helped me,” Ireland said, before admitting, “I do not get a monthly allowance from my parents because I’m 26 years old.” She quickly added, “Nothing wrong with that if you do get an allowance from your parents at 26.”
“That’s totally cool if your parents help you out,” she went on. “My parents have helped me so much of my life. They’ve made life a lot easier for me than in comparison to a lot of people.”
Alec Baldwin recently welcomed a new baby, daughter Ilaria Catalina Irena, in September with his wife Hilaria Baldwin. The couple also shares daughters Maria Lucia Victoria, 20 months, and Carmen, 9, and sons Eduardo “Edu” Pao Lucas, 2, Romeo Alejandro David, 4, Leonardo Ángel Charles, 6, and Rafael “Raf” Thomas, 7.
