Alec Baldwin smiles in family Halloween pics in aftermath of tragic ‘Rust’ shooting
Alec Baldwin and his wife, Hilaria, have been ripped as “tone deaf” narcissists for posting smiling Halloween family photos — as late cinematographer Halyna Hutchins’ son spends the holidays without her.
Hilaria, 37, shared the series of snaps and a video of her family late Friday — while complaining about how hard it is to celebrate while her husband remains under investigation for fatally shooting Hutchins, 42, on the New Mexico set of his Western “Rust.”
“Parenting through this has been an intense experience, to say the least,” Hilaria wrote of her six kids.
“Today, we rallied to give them a holiday,” Hilaria wrote of the children, who were shown in their costumes alongside her and Alec, who smiled while posing in his outfit from kids’ classic “Where the Wild Things Are.”
“Last min costumes…a little hodge-podge…but they were so happy and that warmed my mama heart,” she wrote late Sunday.
“Happy Halloween, from the Baldwinitos,” she wrote, saying the kids give them love, which she then sent to followers.
While her post received supportive messages from many of her followers, it was also quickly dragged online for coming so soon after Hutchins died, leaving a husband, Matt, and nine-year-old son, Andros.
“This is so inappropriate and tone-deaf. Absolutely breathtaking in disrespect,” one mom wrote on Twitter.
Another person tweeted, “How nice for them. I doubt Halyna’s 9yr old son celebrated Halloween this year.”
Someone else called it “disgusting,” asking, “What is wrong with #AlecBaldwin???
“He had some nerve to put on a #costume and take pictures with his sensitivity #Halloween.
“How does he not have the senstivity to realize that the son of the woman he just killed would be having the worst holiday of his young life?!”
Others also suggested that Hilaria’s photo with her daughters showed them “dressed up as 3 Black Widows,” with one person calling it “just cruel and inappropriate” given Hutchins’ family being in mourning.
Others called the Baldwins “narcissists,” saying they were showing “no empathy for the son of the woman killed.”
“They could have hired a nanny to take the kids trick or treating. Instead, Hilaria is complaining about the challenges she is facing.
“You know who will have challenges? The grieving husband and son,” one person wrote.
“Halyna Hutchins is dead. How was her 9-yr-old’s son’s Halloween?” another person asked Hilaria.
Another follower reasoned that “the Baldwin kids should absolutely enjoy Halloween” — but their parents “should have kept their festivities … off social media.”
“Halyna’s son didn’t get to enjoy this holiday. Celebrate without posting, Hillary,” the follower said, using the controversial yoga instructor’s real name. “It’s literally the least you could do.”
The five photos and one video clip shared by Hilaria included two family shots showing Alec smiling in a costume from kids’ classic “Where the Wild Things Are.”
Other pics showed Hilaria posing for a glam shot with daughters Carmen, 8, and Maria Lucia Victoria, 8 months, with them all in matching black spiderweb-decorated dresses.
Maria also wore bright ’80s-style workout clothes alongside her 1-year-old brother Eduardo, with an adorable video showing them dancing. The group shot also showed the couple’s sons Rafael, 6, Leonardo, 5, and Romeo, 3, laughing as they posed in their costumes.
Hilaria posted the images a day after she joined her husband in speaking to reporters for the first time about the accidental fatal shooting of Halyna Hutchins, 42, whom Baldwin called his “friend.”
“There are incidental accidents on film sets from time to time, but nothing like this,” Baldwin said in Manchester, Vermont, where the family has been staying since the tragedy in New Mexico set of his Western, “Rust.”
Baldwin insisted it was a “one in a trillion” freak accident — as he also appeared irritated with his wife who interrupted three times.
Earlier Sunday, Hilaria also posted a photo of her hand intertwined with her husband’s in a tender moment.
“I love you and I’m here,” she wrote with a heart emoji.
Officials have so far refused to rule out charges against the actor over Thursday’s shooting, confirming that Baldwin is “an active part of this investigation.”
