Hilaria and Alec Baldwin recently celebrated their daughter Carmen’s 11th birthday with heartfelt tributes on social media. However, the accompanying photo sparked controversy among online users.

In the photo, Hilaria, dressed in a black turtleneck, is seen embracing Carmen, while Alec stands beside them. The 40-year-old mother expressed her love and gratitude for her daughter in a touching post on her personal blog.

While the photo was intended to be a celebration of Carmen’s birthday, it quickly drew criticism from online users. Critics questioned the appropriateness of Carmen’s makeup, suggesting that it was too mature for an 11-year-old. Comments such as “She looks way too grown-up for 11” and “Please don’t continue to sexualize your child” flooded the post.

Despite the backlash, Alec and Hilaria chose not to engage with the negative comments. However, the controversy seemed to dampen their spirits, as they attended the US Open in New York City without their seven children. The couple appeared less than thrilled while watching the match.

It’s worth noting that Alec Baldwin also has a 28-year-old daughter, Ireland, from his previous marriage to Kim Basinger. In addition to Carmen, Alec and Hilaria are parents to Rafael, Leonardo, Romeo, Eduardo, Lucia, and Ilaria.
