Hilaria Baldwin has taken firm control of her husband Alec Baldwin’s fitness and lifestyle, pushing him through an intense workout regime now that his schedule has cleared following the dismissal of his involuntary manslaughter case linked to the tragic *Rust* shooting.
According to Sydtomarket.net, the 66-year-old actor is being put through a physically demanding training program designed by Hilaria, who is reportedly keen to ensure Alec looks his best for the upcoming TLC reality show, *The Baldwins*, set to premiere in 2025.
Insiders reveal that Hilaria, 40, is the mastermind behind both the reality show and Alec’s new fitness regime, as she prepares him for their family’s venture into reality TV. Known for her dedication to health and wellness, Hilaria has imposed a strict regimen on Alec, consisting of early morning yoga, strength exercises, brisk treadmill walking, and sit-ups aimed at trimming down his midsection. In addition to the workouts, she has taken control of Alec’s diet, even banning sugar from his coffee as part of her effort to whip him into shape.
The mother of seven is said to be watching Alec like a hawk, ensuring he follows the routine with precision. According to one source, Hilaria is “a tough trainer” and has her husband up at the crack of dawn each day to maintain his fitness. She is reportedly determined to have Alec in peak form by the time filming for the reality show begins, believing that his appearance will play a significant role in the show’s success.
The pair, who have been married for 12 years, share a large family, with children ranging in age from Carmen, 11, to Ilaria, who turns 2 later this month. The reality show, *The Baldwins*, will provide viewers with a glimpse into their family life, but sources say Alec, who initially agreed to the project out of financial necessity, is now having second thoughts. With his legal bills piling up and film roles becoming scarce, Alec felt compelled to take on the reality TV gig. However, he reportedly did so without fully understanding the level of physical training his wife would expect from him.
An insider close to the family shared that Alec is feeling the pressure and even regrets agreeing to the show, especially with the added strain of Hilaria’s intense fitness regime. “Alec’s feeling worn down,” the source revealed. “He has a huge family to support, and with Hilaria pushing him so hard to get into shape, he’s wondering if the reality show is worth all the effort.”
The insider also noted that Hilaria has grand ambitions for their reality TV project, which she sees as an opportunity to further elevate their family’s profile in the entertainment world. “Hilaria’s fascinated with the spotlight and wants to turn herself and her family into reality TV superstars,” the source added. “She believes the show will bring them both fame and financial stability, and she’s determined to make it happen, no matter how much Alec struggles with the process.”
Alec’s legal troubles have been a significant burden on the family in recent years. The actor was at the center of a highly publicized court case stemming from the accidental death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins during the filming of *Rust* in 2021. Alec maintained his innocence, claiming he was unaware that the prop gun he was holding contained a live round. In July 2023, a New Mexico judge dismissed the involuntary manslaughter charges against Alec, citing that key evidence had been withheld from the defense. While this legal victory brought some relief to the Baldwin family, the aftermath of the case, along with the financial strain it caused, continues to weigh heavily on Alec.
As Alec faces the demands of preparing for the reality show, sources say he is beginning to feel overwhelmed by the pressures placed on him by Hilaria. Friends and colleagues have expressed concern that Alec, already dealing with the stress of his legal situation and mounting financial obligations, may not be fully prepared for the intense scrutiny that will come with starring in a reality TV series. “Alec’s doing the show, but with a heavy heart,” the insider shared. “He’s not thrilled about being thrust into the spotlight again, especially with so much on his plate. But Hilaria’s leaving him with little choice.”
Despite Alec’s reservations, Hilaria is said to be fully committed to turning their family into reality TV sensations. She has been heavily involved in the development of *The Baldwins* and is reportedly excited about the prospect of sharing their lives with the world. “Hilaria loves the spotlight and believes this is the perfect opportunity to shine,” said the source. “She’s determined to make the show a success, and she’s doing everything she can to ensure Alec is ready for the cameras.”
As *The Baldwins* moves closer to its 2025 debut, Alec is left to grapple with the intense demands placed upon him by both his wife and the reality TV venture. While Hilaria’s ambitions are clear, Alec’s reluctance and mounting stress suggest the road ahead may be more challenging than either of them anticipated.
