‘Happy New Year’: Ireland Baldwin announces she’s pregnant with first child

Baldwin and her musician boyfriend RAC confirmed the news on Saturday (31 December)

Ireland Baldwin has announced she is expecting her first child with musician RAC.

Baldwin, 27, and the 37-year-old record producer – whose real name is André Allen Anjos – have reportedly been dating for over a year.

The model, who is the daughter of Alec Baldwin and ex-wife Kim Basinger, posted a photograph of a sonogram on her Instagram account on Saturday (31 December).

Her caption read: “Happy New Year,” alongside a heart emoji.

RAC also shared the photograph to his social media accounts.

Baldwin followed up her post with a picture of a positive pregnancy test on her Instagram Stories, writing: “It’s not a dog lol.”

Baldwin’s comment was seemingly in reference to speculation that her post was a joke, and that she was, in fact, getting a new puppy.

She also explained her pregnancy was the reason for a slower-than-usual response time to inquiries and work emails.

“It’s because this was me for the past while,” she wrote, alongside a photograph of herself over a toilet, apparently in a bout of morning sickness.

Several celebrities, including Hailey Bieber, Paris Hilton, and Sarah Paulson, congratulated the couple in the comments section.

Bieber commented “cryin”, while Rumer Willis wrote: “Yay can’t wait to meet you little one.”

Baldwin followed up her pregnancy announcement with a picture of her “2023 hair”. In it, she sports a cropped style.

RAC celebrated Baldwin’s 27th birthday on 23 October 2022 with an Instagram Reel, which featured pictures and videos of their time together.

His caption read: “You make me feel alive.”

RAC also announced that the couple were opening up a new shop on the Oregon coast, adding that it is called Good Times and is located in “the beautiful town of gearhart, right on the beach”.
