Hilaria Baldwin has revealed that it was her pregnancy loss that led her and husband Alec Baldwin to try again for another baby.
Baldwin, who just welcomed the couple’s sixth child via surrogate (and five months after she gave birth to son Eduardo) revealed on Instagram how her kids were crushed when she lost a pregnancy at four months along in 2019.
“When I found out our baby had died, I told our children that their sister was going to come, just not at that time,” Hilaria wrote. “Nothing will ever replace her, but two wonderful souls have come into our lives, and we are humbled to know them.”
In 2019, Hilaria also suffered a miscarriage.
Hilaria revealed how her children “craved so much to have a little sister,” Hilaria said they “held out hope” for another sibling, and ended up getting two.

“Our children were brave during our time of tremendous grief—braver than us…and they held out hope,” she said.
“To experience and accept life’s ups and downs is challenging, but a reality that all of us have no choice but to receive and process. I have learned that often our children are wiser than we are and their wisdom has guided us.”
Previously, a source confirmed to Page Six how the Baldwins welcomed new daughter Lucía via surrogate. And while Hilaria hasn’t outright addressed the subject, she alluded to it in her new post — admitting she’s “grateful for all of the very special angels who helped bring Lucía into the world.”
“María Lucía Victoria and Eduardo Pau Lucas: our babies who bring light into our lives—almost like twins, we love you so much.”
Hilaria and 62-year-old Alec, who were married in 2012, are also the parents of 7-year-old daughter Carmen, 5-year-old son Rafael, 4-year-old son Leonardo, and 2-year-old son Romeo.
Alec is also dad to Ireland Baldwin, 25, with ex-wife Kim Basinger.
