Hilaria Baldwin decided to give fans a peek into her motherhood journey while her husband, Alec Baldwin, is away filming "Rust" in Montana.
On September 22, 2022, the “30 Rock” actor became a father of eight after he and the Boston native welcomed a daughter named Ilaria Catalina Irena Baldwin.
"How grateful we feel to welcome our newest little daughter into this world," the couple told PEOPLE at the time. "Just as magical and filled with love as every other little person we have been blessed with."
However, the actor was away filming “Rust” in Montana while Hilaria took to Instagram to share a collage as photos and videos and Ilaria turned seven months old.

On Monday, Hilaria took to Instagram to share a video that contained both photos and videos of the latest Baldwinito to join the family. Some of the photos have been previously posted on her Instagram page and most feature her other children jumping in to help take care of their little sister.
"ilaria catalina irena: 7 months of bringing happy to us. You and your siblings are guiding lights and such blessings," Hilaria wrote in the caption. "The Dedes (Edu and Lu) feel responsible to be your translators: 'baby no like food! Baby no like it!'"
"It’s taking a min to get you to like solids…but we anticipate a lifetime filled with amazing meals with you," she added, "Your facial expressions of surprise and disgust are cutely epic. We promise you: food is good!!!"
Many fans took to Instagram to show their support. “Beautiful babies! I have loved watching all of your children grow,” one follower wrote. “Cuteness overload,” another fan wrote. “Precious!!!” another follower exclaimed. “Adorable,” another fan agreed.
This is Hilaria's first Instagram post since special prosecutors dropped the two counts of involuntary manslaughter against Alec Baldwin in the fatal shooting of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins. The charges have not been dropped against "Rust" armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed, although her preliminary hearing has been postponed until August.
Alec Baldwin Thanks His Wife And Lawyer After 'Rust' Charges Are Dismissed (For Now)
The podcast host took to Instagram to share a single photo of her sitting in Alec’s lap after the charges against her husband were dismissed. She dropped a single red heart emoji in the caption, which was echoed by many fans and famous friends in the comments.
Earlier in the day, the actor also took to Instagram to share a blurry photo of him posing alongside his wife. In the caption, he wrote, “I owe everything I have to this woman. (and to you, Luke),” referring to his lawyer, Luke Nikas.
However, it should be noted that Baldwin is not off the hook just yet. Special prosecutors Kari Morrissey and Jason Lewis dismissed the charges without prejudice, which means that Baldwin could face criminal charges again as their investigation continues.
“Over the last few days and in preparation for the May 3, 2023, preliminary hearing, new facts were revealed that demand further investigation and forensic analysis in the case against Alexander ‘Alec’ Rae Baldwin, III," their statement read. "Consequently, we cannot proceed under the current time constraints and on the facts and evidence turned over by law enforcement in its existing form."
"We therefore will be dismissing the involuntary manslaughter charges against Mr. Baldwin to conduct further investigation. This decision does not absolve Mr. Baldwin of criminal culpability and charges may be refiled," they continued. "Our follow-up investigation will remain active and on-going.”
Alec Baldwin Resumes Filming 'Rust' In Montana
While Hilaria Baldwin takes care of the children at home, Alec Baldwin is away at the Yellowstone Film Ranch in Montana to finish filming "Rust." Most of the original cast and crew have returned, including director Joel Souza. Bianca Cline, who has worked on the critically acclaimed “Marcel the Shell With Shoes On,” will serve as the film’s new cinematographer.
According to Rust Movie Productions, Cline will donate her salary to charity. Matthew Hutchins, the husband of Halyna, has reportedly given Cline his “blessing and support” to go forward in the position. Matthew will also be serving as executive producer as part of the wrongful death lawsuit that was settled last October.
