Hilaria Baldwin almost pulled the plug on her marriage to her husband Alec Baldwin.
The actress-author has reportedly made startling admissions about the couple’s life in her upcoming memoir Manual Not Included.
In her book, which hits the shelves on May 6, Hilaria, now 41, admits that she was ready to walk away” from the Rust actor, 67, and “took her rings off” at one point in their marriage.
Hilaria admitted that they “fought a lot” as Alec was travelling for work while she was left alone in New York caring for their daughter Carmen and their dogs.
“It really p***** me off, and I didn’t hesitate to tell him so. That year was probably the rockiest for us, and not just in terms of juggling a baby and a toddler.”
In excerpts viewed via The Sun she continued, “I was so focused on how I thought things should be, and Alec was so set in his ways. Neither one of us would budge. I took my rings off as a sign that I was potentially ready to walk.”
The mom-of-seven also claims in her memoir how Alec was responding to emails and taking calls while she was giving birth to Rafael, who arrived prematurely, and that he went back to work straight after the birth, which she found “disrespectful.”
However, the pair—who has been married since 2012—decided to work on their marriage and renewed their vows on their fifth wedding anniversary in 2017.
