NEED TO KNOW
Hilaria Baldwin is ready for “a reset.”
The Dancing with the Stars alum and proud mom, 41, recently chatted with relationship and divorce guru Kara Francis for gurus magazine about motherhood, family life and needing a reset. Hilaria, who shares seven children with husband Alec Baldwin, opened up to Francis about needing new energy, adding that she and the 30 Rock alum, 67, no longer wanted to raise their children in the Hamptons.
“We don’t want to raise our kids in the Hamptons anymore,” she told the outlet. “We’re considering L.A. It’s all about fresh energy — a reset.”

The pair, who tied the knot in 2012, share three daughters — Carmen Gabriela, 12, María Lucía Victoria, 4, and Ilaria Catalina Irena, 2 — as well as four sons: Rafael Thomas, 10, Leonardo Ángel Charles, 9, Romeo Alejandro David, 7, and Eduardo “Edu” Pao Lucas, 5. Alec is also dad to daughter Ireland Baldwin, 30, whom he shares with ex-wife Kim Basinger.
On Dec. 5, Alec appeared on The Adam Friedland Show where he discussed how his kids helped him get through a tough moment in his life. Baldwin said that over the past three and a half years, since the accidental shooting on the set of Rust and the trial that followed, he hasn’t been “doing very much” and was at home all the time, adding that his kids “saved him.”
“I’m 67 years old, I got a 3-year-old baby, so I got a lot of kids at home … and they saved my life,” he said. “You get to the point where you think less about where you get love than where you give love. One of the more frustrating and even painful things in life is [when] you have nobody to give your love to.”
“I have a lot of love to give, and I have all these kids around me all day long and I’m not really … doing very much for the last three and a half years,” he added. “I was home all the time, and they saved me. They saved my life.”

Hilaria has also leaned on her children for support and extra strength during tough moments.
During an episode of Dancing with the Stars, the doting mom received huge support from her husband and their seven children, who sat in the front row as she performed the samba to the viral song “Shake it to the Max.” When chatting to PEOPLE following her performance, Hilaria shared how it felt to have her family rooting for her in the audience.
“The purpose of dancing is not just to feel and to enjoy the work that we do, but it’s to make people happy [and] to entertain people. We want to do this because we want to bring joy to people,” she told PEOPLE at the time. “And, so to have Kris [Jenner] and Alec and my children and Shangela and my friends here is so wonderful.”
