Ireland Baldwin shared rare comments about her \u201cbats\u2013t crazy\u201d stepmom, Hilaria Baldwin, in a new Instagram post<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The model joked about their unique bond while crediting the yoga instructor for \u201csaving\u201d dad Alec Baldwin\u2019s life \u2014 and congratulating her on her new \u201cDancing With the Stars\u201d gig<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cI wanted to take a second to talk about my step mom @hilariabaldwin,\u201d Ireland wrote Thursday, alongside a photo of herself posing with Hilaria, her dog and one of her stepsiblings. \u201cI think if people actually knew her the way I do, they would be quite surprised.\u201d<\/p>\n

The model, 29, acknowledged that her message \u201cmay come out of left field\u201d for some people, due to her decision to rarely post about her family life<\/a> on social media.<\/p>\n

\u201cHilaria has had a far more complex and chaotic upbringing than she lets on and I think that\u2019s why we\u2019ve maybe bonded in someways? She didn\u2019t always feel safe and seen. Sometimes, she is too loyal to a fault. She is eccentric and totally bat s\u2013t crazy (in a fun way) but she saved my dad\u2019s life.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ireland also credited Hilaria, 41, for \u201cturning [Alec\u2019s] health around\u201d and bringing out the \u201ccompassionate\u201d and \u201cwonderful\u201d parts of the actor.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe\u2019s taught him that he doesn\u2019t need to suffer inside of his own head and stay stuck in his own past. That it\u2019s never too late to admit you need help and it\u2019s never too late to learn to be kind to yourself.\u201d<\/p>\n

The mom of one even revealed that the \u201cMom Brain\u201d podcast host is the reason why she now has a \u201cclose relationship\u201d with her dad and has given her the big family she has \u201calways wanted.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cShe has always respected me, accepted my flaws, embraced me, and has always shown me kindness,\u201d Ireland continued. \u201cI met her as a teenager and I needed her as an example.\u201d <\/p>\n

The actress penned that she still \u201cvery much look[s] up to her now\u201d and can\u2019t wait to \u201ccheer her ass on\u201d when Hilaria Hilaria competes on Season 34<\/a> of \u201cDWTS.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cShe deserves this! And it\u2019s not my place to share the ins and outs, but this woman is a gem and deserves all the love,\u201d she concluded her sentimental message. WireImage<\/p>\n

\u201cShe deserves this! And it\u2019s not my place to share the ins and outs, but this woman is a gem and deserves all the love,\u201d she concluded her sentimental message.<\/p>\n

Alec, 67, and Hilaria wed in 2012<\/a> and share seven children<\/a> together: Carmen,11, Rafael, 9, Leonardo, 8, Romeo, 6, Eduardo, 4, Mar\u00eda, 4 and Ilaria, 2. Hilaria also\u00a0gave birth to the couple\u2019s rainbow baby<\/a>, son Eduardo, in September 2020.<\/p>\n

As Page Six previously reported, this is not the first time Ireland has defended her stepmom<\/a> over the years. She also spoke up when the yoga guru sparked backlash for self-identifying as Spanish<\/a> and using an accent that many claimed was \u201cfake.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s so pathetic that anyone would wanna play detective, and dig that deep into someone\u2019s life that they don\u2019t know, don\u2019t know anything about, how they were raised, who they were actually raised by. It\u2019s just kinda sad and pathetic,\u201d she\u00a0said in a video on her Instagram\u00a0Story back in 2020.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have a great relationship with her. And she could be a really malicious, terrible, horrible human who tears people down, but she isn\u2019t.\u00a0Hilaria is a wonderful mother who takes great care of her kids, and she takes great care of my dad. And that\u2019s really all that matters to me.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ireland and her father were estranged on and off for many years before their reconciliation, which the model credited Hilaria for helping fix. Alec shares Ireland with ex-wife Kim Bassinger, whom he was married to from 1993 to 2002.<\/p>\n

The father-daughter duo\u2019s relationship came to a head in 2007 after the \u201cBlue Jasmine\u201d actor infamously called her a \u201cthoughtless little pig\u201d<\/a> in a leaked voicemail when she was just 11 years old.<\/p>\n

\u201cI must say that because my relationship with my daughter Ireland was so negatively impacted by my divorce from her mother and having a very protracted custody battle that the media really were having a party about everything,\u201d he admitted.<\/p>\n

He recalled how the public court battle was \u201cjust insanity\u201d and \u201creally, really tough\u201d on both him and his daughter.<\/p>\n

In spite of their ups and downs, Ireland introduced her daughter to Hilaria and Alec\u2019s children in August 2024. irelandirelandireland\/Instagram<\/p>\n

In May 2023, Alec admitted that he \u201cforgot\u201d to include Ireland<\/a> in a tribute he made to his children after prosecutors\u00a0dropped involuntary manslaughter charges against him<\/a>\u00a0stemming from a\u00a0fatal 2021 on-set shooting<\/a> on the set of his film \u201cRust.\u201d<\/p>\n

Later that month, Ireland snubbed her dad<\/a> on social media in response, tactically thanking just her \u201cpartners\u2019 parents\u201d and her mom for visiting her in the hospital after she gave birth to her daughter<\/a>, Holland.<\/p>\n

Despite their social media feud, Ireland introduced her daughter <\/a>to Hilaria and Alec\u2019s children in August 2024 and shared adorable snaps of Holland meeting her young \u201caunts and uncles.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Ireland Baldwin shared rare comments about her \u201cbats\u2013t crazy\u201d stepmom, Hilaria Baldwin, in a new Instagram post.
