Alec Baldwin’s daughter Ireland spoke with
Page Six Magazine and she opened up about her dad. The 16 year old also talked about her new stepmom that is only 12 years older than her. She said, “And Hilaria and I are really close. She’s like a big sister to me, but I feel like I haven’t spent enough time with her yet. We have a lot more to learn about each other and we have a lot more experiences to have together. We joke around and I call her ‘Mom.’ But I respect her, it’s not like I’m Parent Trap-ping her, setting up booby traps in her room.” Which makes sense considering she is closer to Hilaria’s age than her dad is.
Now back to her dad, who can forget that infamous voicemail he left for her when she was just 11 years old. She said, “The only problem with that voicemail was that people made it out to be a way bigger deal than it was. He’s said stuff like that before just because he’s frustrated. For me it was like, ‘OK, whatever.’ I called him back, I was like, ‘Sorry, Dad, I didn’t have my phone.’ That was it.” She added that the 30 Rock star and her were thinking of making a YouTube video of her yelling at him as a fun joke, but have yet to do it.
The high school senior also admitted she wants to become a child psychologist. She said she has seen so many because the courts ruled that she should. She said some were good, but most of them were not. Because of her experience she knows she can do better.
For someone who had the upbringing she had, she comes off as pretty sane in this interview. Maybe some day I will send my children to her because they will need all the help they can get.
