Alec Baldwin and his wife Hilaria are about to pull back the curtain on their private lives, starring in a reality TV show that promises an unfiltered look at their family’s triumphs and tribulations.
TLC is gearing up to bring us into the wild and wonderful world of the Baldwins, a family of nine that’s full of life and love. With seven kids under 10, this couple’s reality show, premiering in 2025, promises to be a heartwarming and hilarious ride.
The family shared the announcement on Instagram with a teaser video, captioned: “We’ve got an exciting announcement to share!”
The Baldwins’ reality show announcement has been overshadowed by Alec’s legal troubles, sparking debate about whether the family should be seeking out the public eye amid such scrutiny.
The actor’s day in court is fast approaching, as Alec Baldwin prepares to stand trial in July for his alleged involvement in a fatal shooting that rocked the set of Rust in 2021.
Option 4A devastating accident on the Rust film set in New Mexico left cinematographer Halyna Hutchins, 42, dead and director Joel Souza wounded after a gun in Alec Baldwin’s possession fired unexpectedly during a rehearsal.
Alec Baldwin’s version of events contradicts the charges, as he claims to have only drawn the hammer back, but the legal consequences of a guilty verdict would be severe – up to 18 months in prison.

Baldwin’s publicists have been sounded out for an official statement, but their silence has only fueled the speculation.
The preview clip offers a glimpse into the pair’s domestic bliss, showcasing their life at home with their kids, six years after tying the knot.
“We’re inviting you into our home to experience the ups and downs; the good, the bad, the wild and the crazy.
