A video of Hilaria Baldwin scolding her husband, Alec Baldwin, during a red-carpet interview has gone viral, attracting millions of views and sparking mixed reactions online.
The exchange took place on March 11, 2025, at the grand opening of Planet Hollywood Times Square in New York City. During the event, the couple was asked about the possibility of a second season of their TLC reality show, “The Baldwins.”
In the clip, shared by Extra, Hilaria began answering a question about the show’s future, saying, “I think we’re gonna see, you know? We’re going to see how it feels to have it be out there.” Before she could finish, Alec interrupted, stating, “It’s gonna be great. You’re a winner.”
Hilaria immediately turned to Alec and snapped, “Oh my God. When I’m talking, you’re not talking!” Alec looked down and apologized, but she firmly repeated, “No! When I’m talking, you’re not talking.” She then jokingly suggested that he should be cut from the show, raising her arm to block him from view.
As the interview continued, another exchange between the couple drew further attention. Hilaria was answering a question about how their reality show had affected the parenting of their seven children when Alec interjected again.
“Every parent knows that a routine is king, or queen. Routine is key, we’ll just say,” Hilaria explained. Alec then added, “Routine is essential.” She continued, “It’s essential, it’s essential. But I think that us trying to, every day—” before Alec cut in once more, asking, “What’s the word for ‘essential’ in Spanish?”
Alec continued making remarks, including “You didn’t let me down” and “You’re so beautiful,” leading Hilaria to stop the interview, wave her hands, and address him directly, “You’re distracting me right now. Why? Why are you distracting me?… Oh my God you’re annoying me, stop. It’s not cute, no. He’s distracting me. I’m going to walk out of this interview.”
Alec briefly walked away in a lighthearted manner, allowing Hilaria to regain her focus. She then resumed speaking, concluding, “Let me go back. It’s all about routine. Every day we strive to be boring and un-boring things happen to us, as they do.”
The video has since generated a wide range of reactions, with viewers debating the couple’s dynamic during the interview.
On Reddit, one person wrote, “Omg she’s so much worse than we thought. That was actually hard to watch. Did she break him?”
Meanwhile, another added, “Just watching that made my heart sink. She was so incredibly rude and dismissive. How do you speak to your spouse like that?” Another reaction simply stated, “She’s insufferable.”
On X, one comment read, “Hilaria. Don’t talk to him like that in public ever again. What’s wrong with you! That was disrespectful.” Another person observed, “His expression says it all.” Someone else shared, “It’s totally disrespectful [sic] feel sorry for him.”
Over on TikTok, a viewer commented, “Shame on her for humiliating him like that. If you watch the show like I watch the show it seems to be all about her she doesn’t let him do anything doesn’t let him say anything it’s all about her [sic].”
Another reaction said, “She seems abusive….that’s scary.” Meanwhile, one TikToker noted, “She is very rude to her husband in front of everyone.”
The viral video has fueled debate, with many criticizing Hilaria’s behavior toward Alec. As discussions continue online, the couple has yet to respond publicly.
