HILARIA BEFORE ALEC
Now we're onto Alec Baldwin's second wife, Hilaria Baldwin. Born as Hilaria Lynn Thomas in Mallorca, Spain. She was the child of an American father and a Spanish mother. Therefore, her early years were spent between Spain and Boston. She was a history and dance major at New York University and aspired to be a professional dancer.

Unfortunately, the stresses of life as a professional performer and previous injuries took a toll on her. She then gave up life as a dancer and pursued a career as a yoga instructor. This choice resulted in founding her own studio "Yoga Vida", which quickly became a respectable place in New York City.

THEIR LOVE STORY IS STRAIGHT OUT OF A ROM-COM
To put it lightly, the story of their romance definitely sounds like it came out of the writing room of a romantic comedy. Especially the way that Alec tells it. The actor once posted a photo on Instagram in honor of their eight-year anniversary, and it definitely resembles the actor's experiences with rom-coms.

"8 years ago, I wandered into Pure Food and Wine on Irving Place, on an unseasonably warm February evening," he wrote. "My friend, @bocartist and I sat down (outside!) and as I turned to my left I saw a woman who would change my life. Entirely. 8 years today. Thanks for all you’ve given me. You are a gift."

HER WAY OF TELLING IT
The future Mrs. Baldwin told The New York Times that the actor's opening line was pretty smooth. "I was standing near the door with my friends when he walked up and took my hand and said, ‘I must know you,’" she recalled. "You must know me?’” she replied, after which “he gave me his card.”

If that isn't smooth, then what is? Although she also revealed that she wasn't sure at first whether Alec's intentions were romantic. "He didn’t kiss me for six weeks!" she told Mariska Hargitay for Beach magazine. "We’d have the most romantic dinner date, and afterward he’d drop me off at my house and shake my hand," she added.

A 'QUICK' CHANGE OF PACE
Clearly, his intentions were romantic or else this article wouldn't exist. Their courtship may have been slow, but things between them soon began to move quickly. "Five months into our relationship, we got an apartment together; then we started talking about getting married; then he proposed; then we got married; now we have a kid," she has said.

The couple married on June 29, 2012, at the Basilica of St. Patrick’s Old Cathedral in New York City. Once again, they do move fast, and here is how quick their little brood got going. Hilaria gave birth to their first baby daughter, Carmen Gabriela Baldwin, on August 23, 2013.
