Hilaria Baldwin ‘judged’ couples with big age differences before meeting Alec

Age is just a number — but that hasn’t been Hilaria Baldwin’s way of thinking in the past.

The mom-of-seven opened up about substantial age differences in relationships, including her 26-year age gap with her 64-year-old husband, Alec Baldwin.

Speaking during the first episode of her brand new podcast “Witches Anonymous,” Hilaria revealed she was often quick to judge couples who weren’t close in age.

“Before I got together with Alec [Baldwin], I would judge women and men that had big age differences,” the Boston-born yoga instructor admitted. “I would look at it like, this older man wants some young bimbo with no opinions whatsoever.”

The 38-year-old said she often found herself questioning people’s intentions and assumed the love between an older and younger partner wasn’t genuine.

“That younger woman is obviously a gold digger, and she obviously doesn’t even care and is just like whatever, ‘I hope you die, and I’m going to take all your money,'” she added.

Hilaria admitted her mentality changed after finding love with Alec, to whom she’s been married since 2012.

“Now that I’m in that relationship and people will say those things about me regularly, I realize, what was this trained into my head?” she said.

“Why was I so judgmental about other people who are literally just finding love? Maybe their love looks different from you and from your love or what I thought love would be but it doesn’t make it not valid.”

The Baldwins last month welcomed the youngest “Baldwinito,” daughter Ilaria Catalina Irena.

Ilaria joined big siblings Carmen, 9, Rafael, 7, Leonardo, 6, Romeo, 4, Eduardo, 2, and Lucia, 20 months, as well as Ireland, Alec’s 27-year-old daughter with ex-wife Kim Basinger.
