Ireland Baldwin Gives Birth To First Baby With Musician RAC
Model Ireland Baldwin welcomed her first daughter with musician RAC. The couple shared the news of the birth of their daughter Holland through Instagram on May 18.
The new mom posted a selfie of herself with her boyfriend in bed, with the baby girl bundled up in her arms. She captioned the picture “Holland”.
Her cousin, Alaia Baldwin, commented on the post, talking about the new mom looking very pretty. Ireland, 27, announced her pregnancy in December last year by posting a video of an ultrasound appointment.
She also posted a sonogram of her ultrasound on Instagram. And many fans pointed out that the baby looked like a small dog.
While fans were busy deciding if the sonogram was of a human baby or a dog, the entire Baldwin family excitedly received the pregnancy news. The now grandpa, Alec commented, “Amazing”. Her cousins were all in support, with Alaia welcoming her to the mommy club and Hailey Bieber commenting, “Cryin’.”.
In January, Ireland hinted that her baby was a girl by using female pronouns for the unborn baby. In the same month, she revealed that the name of her baby would be named “Holland”, the name of another country to keep with consistency.
She talked to Girlboss Radio about loving the name since she was young and thinking it was classy and beautiful.
Holland is the first grandchild of Alec Baldwin and Kim Basinger. The couple was married for nine years before going their separate ways in 1993. Kim had earlier remarked about the pregnancy. When fans pointed out that the baby was a dog, the actress shared that Ireland’s pregnancy had similarities to hers.
She posted a picture from her collection and wrote, “I know it’s hard to read…But in April of 1995, this was a note I wrote on one of my first sonograms of baby Ireland.”
The note reads, “4 white paws and a tail”, and the star remembers telling her OB, Dr. Liu, ‘It’s a puppy!'” Kim went on to joke that she thought Ireland was having a Beagle, observing that the mother and daughter were very much alike. She also expressed her excitement over the addition of a new baby girl to the family.
Ireland was active on social media throughout her pregnancy. She regularly posted snaps and videos and even shared details about what her pregnancy was like. She talked about pregnancy being hard and not being ready for that. She said it was “physical warfare” with her body and even thanked RAC (real name André Allen Anjos) for being her everything.
She talked about dealing with anxiety, which was exacerbated during her pregnancy. She knew everyone’s experience was different, and while it can be easy for some, hers was a struggle.
However, now with Holland in hand, Ireland notes that all of it was worth it and that she is very excited about the new phase of her life.
