Is it possible they wanted to protect their privacy? Not everyone wants to be “outed” as a parent of a celebrity, especially when living in a relatively small city. That inevitably would bring press and attention that Hilaria’s parents may not have wanted. |
Totally possible. Except they also mentioned her parents live in Mallorca. Which was completely unnecessary. |
would any paparazzi really know who she even is? i wouldn't' and frankly don't care..think she needs to get over herself (insert eye roll) |
If you were interested in privacy you would not put a wedding announcement in the NYTimes. |
That’s silly. Alec Baldwin is definitely going to have a NY Times write up of his wedding. But her parents have a right to request privacy and to remain unnamed if they choose. This doesn’t strike me as odd. I think Hilaria is ridiculous but her parents may well be normal people. |
Why would he definitely have a write-up? I would venture to guess that most celebrities don't. |
Yes, this! And why the mention of Mallorca - who knows - but the geographical reference is a different thing than using names. |
| I went down the rabbit hole on all of this, and here's my two cents: She's spoken about previously suffering from an eating disorder. I think this appropriation of a fictional cultural identity is probably that same original psychological issue--now just playing itself out in a different form. She must think that passing herself off as Spanish makes her more interesting, or desirable, or something. She must not think the regular, American version of herself measures up. If that's what's going on, it's kind of sad. But what do I know? Maybe she just really, really likes Spanish culture. |
How would you pronounce it? ( DP) |
|
If anyone still doubts the whole not really Spanish thing, the daily mail wrote up the name change way back. She did dance competitions as Hilary Hayward-Thomas.

Whoah. I went to her Instagram today for the first time in about a month. Like 80% of the comments are negative now. Especially on this picture. Everybody is like dude, stop with the selfies already and take care of your kid
|
Looks like she’s taking care of her kid to me....
|
She is young and beautiful, has a rich husband and lovely kids. Why is she so desperate for attention? |
Really? Who cares? Every single celebrity posts stuff. Idk why you all feel like you need to attack her constantly. 50+ pages is quite sad. |
C’mon the cultural appropriation is very, very weird. |
