Alec and Hilaria Baldwin posted a selfie with Carmen Gabriela on the girl’s birthday. They were hit with a barrage of criticism.
Alec Baldwin and his wife Hilaria Baldwin allowed their 11-year-old daughter Carmen Gabriela to wear makeup on her birthday. This caused stormy criticism from the star couple’s subscribers. The 66-year-old actor and 40-year-old Hilaria Baldwin posted a selfie with their eldest daughter on their blogs in honor of her 11th birthday.
Readers condemned the parenting style chosen by the celebrity couple, and in dozens of comments they asked why a “beauty filter” was applied to Carmen Gabriela’s face and why there was so much makeup on the face of an 11-year-old girl.
Critical netizens condemned the couple for allowing their daughter to wear “an inappropriate amount of makeup” at such a young age. Alec and Hilaria previously faced harsh criticism for allowing Carmen Gabriela to wear makeup from the age of 10.
The new case was no exception. The reason for the discussion was a photo from a dinner in honor of the girl’s birthday. “11! I love you, Carmencita,” Baldwin wrote succinctly under the photo.
“Happy 11th birthday to our Carmen Gabriela! We are so lucky to be your parents. Thank you for being our light, for making us laugh and for being you,” Hilaria congratulated the girl.
In the photo, the birthday girl presses her back against her mother, with Alec Baldwin standing behind her. Adults hug the girl. Behind the family, a large restaurant hall is visible, immersed in twilight.
An 11-year-old girl put on makeup and hairstyle in honor of her birthday. Carmen Gabriela painted her eyelashes with mascara and touched her lips with pink lipstick. In the comments, subscribers said that the girl was too young to wear makeup.
One fan called Alec Baldwin’s daughter adorable, but urged her parents to “let her be a little girl a little longer.” “It’s weird that you would let your daughter wear as much makeup as a 15 year old could,” another said.
A third reader was apparently upset that the photo was edited before publication: he wrote that he was offended that the parents “enlarged” Carmen Gabriela’s face in the photo. “Please don’t sexualize this child. You are setting her up for a lifetime of pain,” one fan wrote emotionally.
Some noted that the girl looks almost twice her age, others said that Carmen Gabriela “looks too old for 11 years.” “11 and makeup…Are you sure?” – this was the leitmotif of many comments.
However, there were also those who came to the defense of the girl’s parents: “Why do you think it is necessary to control her upbringing? Mind your own business and your life will become much calmer. She is beautiful!”, “Wonderful family. My 8 year old granddaughter loves to play with makeup and we let her! What’s wrong with that? – they noted.
Another fan called the critics cruel, adding that Carmen Gabriela just wanted to be beautiful like her mother on her birthday.
Alec and Hilaria Baldwin have seven children: three daughters and four sons. It is noteworthy that their three-year-old daughter Maria Lucia Victoria was born just five months after Eduardo Pau’s brother Lucas, as she was carried by a surrogate mother. The couple’s youngest child was born in September 2022, and in May 2023, the actor’s eldest daughter from Kim Basinger made him a grandfather.
