Alec Baldwin and his wife Hilaria have announced they are expecting their seventh child together.

Hilaria, 38, an author and yoga instructor, shared a video of the moment they gave the news to their other children.

The couple’s announcement comes five months after Baldwin accidentally shot dead Halyna Hutchins, a cinematographer, while filming his movie Rust.

Hilaria wrote in a post on Instagram: “After many ups and downs over the past few years, we have an exciting up and a huge surprise: another Baldwinito is coming this fall.

“We were pretty sure our family was complete, and we’re beyond happy with this surprise.

“I’m sharing with you the moment we told the kids – as you can see, they are super excited! Our new baby is a very bright spot in our lives. A blessing and a gift during such uncertain times.”

The couple began a relationship in 2011 and married the next year.
