Hilaria Baldwin - THREAD 2

This is for the person who asked if her husband was also lied to. The video seems to answer this.

Is it just me, or is Alec Baldwin insinuating that an enemy has outed Hilaria?

Like The Donald, perhaps?

Who knew this would be Don's last Daring Do bet it was him though

Where is thread 1?

MsHedgehog · 30/12/2020 18:43

That is extremely disturbing. Not sure how she can blame the media for getting it wrong when she keeps saying she moved to the US from Spain, speaks with an accent and makes a point of showing she's Spanish. Did she never think she would be caught out?

I think Alec Baldwin's been deceived by her. The question is, did her family and friends help... Were they so impressed she met and then married a celebrity that they played along?!

Wow!

purpledagger · 30/12/2020 18:54

I'm watching Dirty Dancing. Reminds me of Hilarys upbringing. Very WASPy.

Hope that works, not sure how to link a thread?

I think AB was well aware. He would have met her parents and known where she went to school. I get the impression he is very image conscious so he probably liked the idea that she played the 'I'm Spanish' card whilst still being a purebred WASP and all of the connections that he benefited from as a result.

He's probably annoyed it came out the way it did because they have no control over it. Maybe they were slowly phasing out the Spanish connection?

This is like that episode of Friends where Ross starts a job using a British accent, and then doesn't know how to drop it without it being weird.

DrManhattan · 30/12/2020 20:04

I hope Trump has seen this

PurplePansy05 · 30/12/2020 20:46

This has made my day Grin

lioncitygirl · 30/12/2020 20:51

I also found this mega weird - I mean, what a thing to lie about, especially seeing as how she married someone famous and is always in the news! She must have known she was going to get caught.....

MorganKitten · 30/12/2020 20:55

He fancied Salma Hayek, “She was literally the most fabulous woman that I’ve ever worked with.” Bought her loads of gifts and she wasn’t into him... HILARY used a mock accent to draw him in and he fell for it, and fired staff who told him she was a fake.
She’s a rich white girl who went to Spain on holidays and no family are from there - her family are coming forward and saying this!

Quirrelsotherface · 30/12/2020 21:10

This is totally bizarre but what I don't get is how is this just coming out now?! She's been around ages, prolific in celeb columns and insta. Wonder if it is the doing of The Donald. It's the way she pronounces 'Eee-laa-ria'..! She has to be extremely mentally unwell.

The amazing Tracie Morrissey outed her on Instagram, if you don’t follow her you’re missing out a lot of celeb exposes eg the Teddy Mellancap fitness program which is basically an eating disorder

Ironically her husband describes her as the most emotionally healthy person he knows in the video in the OP.

It's all just so bizarre.

EachandEveryone · 30/12/2020 21:15

I really like Alec. Surely SNL cant let this pass by? Does he have any clout over who they send up I wonder?

Cecily42 · 30/12/2020 21:17

This is so strange. Does she have a Spanish accent? She sounds American to me.

Cocolapew · 30/12/2020 21:18

There's more in the Mail about it, she's did an interview with the NY Times (?) And basically said its the medias fault for not doing research Grin

MsHedgehog · 30/12/2020 21:19

@Quirrelsotherface I’ve read that it’s come up over the years in places like Reddit and Twitter and old school friends have posted about her before, but it never got any traction and was never picked up by anyone. This time, it did.

JillofTrades · 30/12/2020 21:21

Has his voice-mail to his daughter been brought up on the previous thread. I listened to it today and I was horrified. He is clearly a narcissist. That recording was just vile.

ButtWormHole · 30/12/2020 21:21

Doesn’t tattle exist for vile gossip like this?
