She explained, “At one point, I recall thinking, ‘What if Alec doesn’t come home after the trial? What would I do?”
With Alec—also dad to his and ex-wife Kim Basinger‘s 30-year-old daughter Ireland—and Hilaria’s TLC show The Baldwins filming amid the trial, the yoga instructor struggled to balance everything in their life in front of the cameras.
“I was angry when we started,” she noted. “I was worried and protective of my family. I had to be the head of the family through it all.”
Nonetheless, Hilaria, 41, found her footing as their family rolled with the punches. While she knows that bringing cameras into her home could bring some not-so-pleasant comments about their life, she added, “Eventually, you learn to live with it anyway.”
And Hilaria hasn’t shied away from comments about their blended family, either. In fact, she also revealed how she navigated her relationship with Ireland when she and Alec began dating.
