Alec Baldwin’s Not-Quite-Twins
Alec and Hilaria Baldwin have a bustling household with seven children, but two of their youngest share a special bond. Three-year-olds Eduardo and Maria, born just five and a half months apart, are so close that dad Alec jokingly calls them “the twins.”
In the latest episode of their reality series, The Baldwins, Hilaria reveals the unique story behind the close-in-age siblings. The children, nicknamed Edu and Lulu, even have their own special language, referring to each other as “Dede.” Hilaria explains that the term evolved organically from the toddlers and has become their adorable version of “twin.”
The episode also offers a glimpse into Hilaria’s emotional motherhood journey. She candidly discusses her experience with two miscarriages, one of which followed a round of IVF.
While the losses were devastating, Hilaria’s desire to expand her family remained. Unsure of how to proceed after such heartbreak, she explored surrogacy, ultimately connecting with a woman who carried Maria.
In a surprising turn of events, Hilaria discovered she was pregnant with Eduardo naturally, resulting in both pregnancies overlapping.
Despite the different paths to parenthood, Hilaria emphasizes the unwavering love she feels for all her children. She reflects on the unique experience, acknowledging that while Maria’s arrival differed from her other children, the bond is just as strong. “She feels the same, she’s still connected to me,” Hilaria shares, reinforcing that love is the ultimate connector in their family.
