Hilaria Baldwin - At it again

Anonymous
"She called it “extremely important” for people to be “able to come out as different parts of themselves and how they identify and have people listen.”

She's not seriously going down the identity road, is she???

I'm first generation and took a lot of accent reduction classes, as I testify for a living. Sometimes I still get some a** pretending not to understand me when he runs out of arguments and it makes my blood boil. Another reaction that I get is men sexualizing my accent, like it's a kink to make me more attractive, and it's skin crawling. This witch should be punished.

From Reddit:
BTW, her parents' "retirement house" in Spain is actually a very small, 2 bedroom 1 bath apartment, that seems to be unoccupied since 2016 until present and is for rent on a site similar to air bnb. I'm not going to post the link out of privacy. I don't think they even live in Spain.

She shows no signs, Moving on...

The sad thing is she is causing harm...

There are other mentally ill women who see her images on IG and assume they too should be underweight, sexy and with the kids all the time. Anyone who has tried doing 10 minutes of yoga with toddlers awake and under your care knows it's an accident waiting to happen. She needs to explain there are nannies 2 feet away ready to grab them and prevent accidents.


She profited off the exotic Spanish woman shtick and the more it boosted her career, the more credibility it gave her to mentally ill women who cannot see through the ruse. I wonder how many people with EDs got re-triggered by her lingerie posts. I wonder how many woman had to take a kid to the ER because they thought it was perfectly reasonable to do a workout in lingerie while the babies and puppies were frolicking about unsupervised.

I never heard from her until now, I didn’t know who she was, she wasn’t remotely relevant on Spain.
Things that I want to point out:
1) I don’t think she knows about our culture at all. Mallorca is a tourist place, where there are touristy places where no one is a local. There are many British and Germans who retire there and don’t know any word in Spanish after living in Spain for many years, they don’t tend to integrate or blend with the local community. What she talks about Spain are all stereotypes, I don’t follow her on social media, but has she talked about “Los Reyes Magos”? (The Three Wise Men), they give presents on January 6th (they’re our version of Santa Claus). If she names her children Spanish names (well, weird composed names not common here) you’d think she celebrates Spanish traditions as “Reyes Magos”, or the twelve grapes at New Years’ Eve (you eat 12 grapes on each clock bell strike at midnight).
2) Her brother wrote to her in Spanish being both Americans? Come on! And the Spanish was off, with common mistakes.
3) She never speaks more than two sentences in Spanish. Her accent is good, but her grammar and vocabulary is not, that’s why I think she avoided to talk with the Spanish press.
4) What I find most offensive of it all it’s not that she pretended to be Spanish, but that she portrayed an stereotype of “Latin” that has nothing to do with us. When I look at the way she makes up, for example, I think of a Latin girl, not a Spaniard from Spain. And I read some interviews full of stereotypes that are not even from our country. “Cielito lindo”! And she tanned and dyed her hair to look from Spain? Come on! That’s so offensive! Tell Elsa Pataky that she’s not Spanish because she’s blonde... argh.
5) No one in Spain is called Hilaria. It’s absurd.
6) A Spaniard wouldn’t give up her last name, it’s a cultural thing for us. We marry and keep our last name and we have two last names. Take Elsa Pataky, for example, she didn’t lost her last names when she married Chris Hemsworth. She’s Elsa (name) Lafuente (first surname, from her father) Medianu (second surname, from her mother). We don’t tend to have middle names (I don’t, for example, as most of my friends), so that’s even weirder that Hilaria names her children even three.


Very good contribution! Just add that she has claimed to have studied in Mallorca at some time (in fact, I would swear that in the video-explanation, but I already mix sources). If that were true, she would have to speak Mallorcan in order to graduate. And he has never, ever referred to this beyond naming "Pau" to one of his children. By the way, as you say, mixed with another name that does not fit (it is not Catalan) and being in itself a rarity to put two names in Spain. It is something quite old school and it is not done anymore even in the most posh families. And she put THREE to the latest one. And speaking of this, Romeo is also a very very weird name in Spain. Certainly is not a classic, common or in vogue.

So much embarrassment, anxiety over how her husband is reacting to her lies, her brand being upended, and is also taking care of five kids(granted with 5 nannies but still that’s a lot).


Well, the best way to avoid the pain of that humiliation is to not lie in the first place. What did she think would happen???


I feel bad for her for being mentally ill but at some point you are responsible for your actions even if you are sick.

I actually feel really bad for everyone else involved here- Alec, her parents, her poor kids, even those poor nannies.

This woman has hurt every single person who loves her in service of this ridiculous delusion. My mother is also mentally ill and she also did nothing but hurt other people her entire adult life. At some point you stop feeling sorry for these people and only feel for their hapless victims- their families.

No kidding, but the punishment in this case is way out of proportion with the crime. I feel sorry for her and while she shouldn’t have lied, I wonder if she actually hurt anyone - or did this to hurt anyone. And in the scheme of things, there are so many awful humans in the world. Hilaria’s not one of them, regardless of her considerable flaws.

While this story is tantalizing, she’s being bullied and savagely ridiculed for no decent reason.

There are mentally ill social media strivers who try to perfect their image, and they aren't even famous. How is this helping??

How do you know she hurt anyone in the circle you describe? And maybe her delusion is a signal of issues that warrant compassion and empathy, not nastiness and witch hunts.

I dunno, I often see bullies defending their ways in this very manner. What gave her a right?

What punishment? Is she losing her home? Her children? Her materials goods? No. She will be fine.

Anyone genuinely following HB should question their own values. What makes you want to follow her? And all of these IG “celebrities” are essentially fakes. You don’t see the staff that help them post, that create the themes they create, that keep their kids out of sight and/or tidy on camera.

I love Chrissy Teigen but I have no illusions that I’m seeing her “real life”. I’m not. I’m seeing a brand that I happen to like, but it’s not the bare, raw, day-to-day.

Totally! I don’t know any one who would mix a Catalan name with a Spanish name.

Gosh, you have a really superficial view of what matters. Hint, people can be hurt terribly and still keep their material goods. Do you not imagine people suffer terribly psychologically and emotionally from the nastiness of these witch hunts / cancel culture mobs? I’m not condoning HB’s lies, but her “crime” was very limited compared to the damage she’ll sustain. I hope she survives.
