Hilaria Baldwin has shared the images she sends to husband Alec Baldwin when trying to clear the air after “immature arguments”.

The mother-of-six posted the pictures to her Instagram Stories just weeks after welcoming their sixth child to the family.

In the first image, Ms Baldwin can be seen breastfeeding one of her two infant children with a beatific expression on her face as she lunges in tight leggings.

“When Alec and I have immature arguments, and I get a frustrated text...I decide to respond with ridiculously random/non sequitur photos like this,' she wrote.

“Try it...totally diffuses (sic) the convo and they can't help but laugh.”

She followed this up with a second picture of her in the kitchen juggling her baby, a duster and reaching over the stove for a kettle, while surrounded by her remaining five children.

“And then if that doesn't solve the problem, I call in backup and we send this…” she added.

“Don't worry, nothing is plugged in, turned on, lit on fire, or whatever you are concerned of”.

Ms Baldwin gave birth to their fifth child, son Eduardo “Edu” Pao Lucas, in September 2020.

And at the beginning of March, the couple revealed that they had welcomed a sixth child, Lucia, who is believed to have been born through a surrogate.

Ms Baldwin posted a picture of their newborn daughter on Instagram at the beginning of March, writing: “We are so in love with our daughter, Lucia.

“Just like your brothers and sisters, you are a dream come true.”

Recently she revealed on her Instagram Stories that she is breastfeeding both of her infants and joked: “This cow is tired and thirsty.”

The news follows Ms Baldwin’s decision to address the December controversy surrounding her heritage, where critics accused her of pretending to have Spanish origins.

In a post to Instagram, Ms Baldwin said she had “spent the last month listening, reflecting, and asking myself how I can learn and grow”.

“My parents raised my brother and me with two cultures, American and Spanish, and I feel a true sense of belonging to both,” she wrote.

“The way I’ve spoken about myself and my deep connection to two cultures could have been better explained – I should have been more clear and I'm sorry.”

Speaking to The New York Times, Baldwin insisted that she had not intended to create a false narrative about her origins, saying: “I think there is a difference between hiding and creating a boundary.”
