Eyebrows were raised and tongues were wagging after Hilaria and Alec Baldwin announced the birth of their sixth (his seventh) child, Lucia. Ordinarily, a celebrity birth announcement gets attention, but not like this. What was the difference? Well, they had just announced the birth of their fifth child, Eduardo “Edu” Pao Lucas, a few months earlier. The Baldwins kept the news of the surrogacy private, and the announcement of a sixth Baldwin baby was a surprise for everyone.
People may
really want to know why the Baldwins made the decision they made, but here’s the thing: It’s no one’s business but the Baldwins’. They don’t owe fans any answers about their private lives or the private lives of their children. This is true even though they are public people and Hilaria shares so much of her life on social media.
