Hilaria Baldwin spills secret to happy marriage with Alec Baldwin

Hilaria Baldwin has finally shared the secret behind her 14-year successful marriage to Alec Baldwin.

“We just let each other be, and I think that’s one of the reasons our relationship has gone on as long as it has, because we are polar opposites and so different,” the 42-year-old businesswoman told the Daily Mail.

She further told the publication that regular date nights play a vital part in keeping the flame alive.

“We take a lot of time for date nights,” said Hilaria. “We’ve been traveling a lot for work recently but we try to have a lot of date nights.”

“He loves a good dinner, we either go out or I cook and we usually end up chatting and catching each other up on our seven kids and our projects," continued the yoga instructor.

The mom-of-seven added that people once viewed her marriage to Alec as "ridiculous."

“Take a 27-year-old yoga instructor married to a rich and famous older man – it sounds ridiculous. It sounds like a bad ‘SNL’ sketch,” quipped Hilaria.

“It worked out luckily, but we poke fun at each other in our family all the time,” Hilaria added. “I think people expect that Alec wanted somebody he could boss around, and we’re on the same level together," she added.

For those unversed, Hilaria tied the knot with Alec in 2012, and the couple shares 7 kids together - Carmen, 12, Rafael, 10, Leonardo, 9, Romeo, 8, Eduardo, 5, Maria Lucia, 5, and Ilaria, 3.
