The model referred to her son as “she” when she embarked on a virtual venting session about her pregnancy earlier this month.
‘If one more person asks me to send them a picture of my belly, I’m going to lose my mind. Because I don’t have one. My daughter is nestled so deeply in there, and I’m tall, and there’s a lot of room for her in there,” Ireland said in the videos of her.
It’s been a tumultuous few weeks for the Baldwin family, after it was revealed that Ireland’s superstar dad, Alec Baldwin, will be officially charged with manslaughter for his role in the tragic shooting in Rust of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins.
Prosecutors in Santa Fe, New Mexico, formally filed charges today against Baldwin.
Baldwin has vowed to fight the charges. He says that he never pulled the trigger and that it was a tragic accident.
If convicted, he faces up to five years in prison.
Gunsmith Hannah Gutierrez-Reed was also charged.
