Ireland Baldwin Shares Photo of Gruesome Injury From Babysitting for Just “45 Minutes”
In an Instagram photo, Ireland Baldwin shared the end result of a mishap that occurred while watching two 7-year-olds. Scroll on for more details on the shocking photo.
Talk about an unforgettable ending to an adventure in babysitting.
Model Ireland Baldwin took to her Instagram on Friday, April 23 to show the gruesome injury she says was inflicted while watching "two 7-year-old boys for 45 minutes." She posted a photo of an incredibly bloody nose and ended her caption with the hashtag #birthcontrol.
Naturally, the comments were flooded with agape-mouthed emojis from shocked friends and fans. There is one comment in particular that stood out though, courtesy of her uncle, Billy Baldwin.
When it came to the jaw dropping photo, the actor and brother of dad Alec Baldwin commented, "When I grew up with your father and your uncles.. we called that Tuesday." To which Ireland simply replied, "Oh dear God."
It comes as no surprise that the daughter of actors Kim Basinger and Alec Baldwin has experience in the world of watching tiny tots—the actress does in fact have six younger siblings deriving from her dad's 2012 marriage to stepmom Hilaria Baldwin.
Although it's unclear if the 7-year-old little ones were any of her siblings, when it comes to her large family, it's clear even in her social media photos that she absolutely loves being surrounded by her younger family members.
Also, in addition to doing just fine after this little mishap, Ireland seems to be doing even better on other fronts. Most recently, she's enjoyed the side hustle of becoming a DJ, and was hired to perform at Smile Train's annual Pool Party Charity Event, but made it clear that she has "no plans on making it a full time career."
We're willing to bet that being a babysitter full time wouldn't quite make the list now either.
When Justin Theroux was dating Jennifer Aniston, their relationship frequently made headlines. And while dealing with the media frenzy, the actor received "one of the most sage pieces of advice ever" from Jason Bateman.
"He said, 'Look, in that side of the entertainment industry, a character is about to be born. And that character is you, but it's not you,'" Theroux recalled in a teaser for his upcoming Sunday Today With Willie Geist interview. "'That character is, you know, angry; that character has got a problem; that character is, you know, sweet. It's just this little soap opera that gets written in the margins. And he said, 'And so, my advice is don't follow that guy's storyline.'"
The Mosquito Coast star said he stuck to Bateman's words of wisdom. As he put it, "That's the only way you can keep sane in all that."
Aniston and Theroux started dating in 2011 and got engaged in 2012, tying the knot in 2015. But just a few years later, the two announced they'd broken up at the end of 2017, noting they were "two best friends" who'd "decided to part ways as a couple" and looked forward to continuing their "cherished friendship."
And they have. From celebrating holidays together to sending each other birthday wishes, the exes have remained on good terms. In fact, Theroux recently told Esquire he and the actress call, text and FaceTime now and then.
"Like it or not, we didn't have that dramatic split, and we love each other," he told the magazine. "I'm sincere when I say that I cherish our friendship. We can not be together and still bring each other joy and friendship. Also, she makes me laugh very, very hard. She's a hilarious person. It would be a loss if we weren't in contact, for me personally. And I'd like to think the same for her."
Aniston has also said she considers her marriages, which also include her five years of matrimony with Brad Pitt, to be "very successful."
"When they came to an end, it was a choice that was made because we chose to be happy, and sometimes happiness didn't exist within that arrangement anymore," she told Elle in 2018. "Sure, there were bumps, and not every moment felt fantastic, obviously, but at the end of it, this is our one life and I would not stay in a situation out of fear. Fear of being alone. Fear of not being able to survive. To stay in a marriage based on fear feels like you're doing your one life a disservice. When the work has been put in and it doesn't seem that there's an option of it working, that's okay. That's not a failure."
As for the tabloids' fascination with her love life, the Friends alum has admitted it can be "pretty crazy."
"The misconceptions are 'Jen can't keep a man,' and 'Jen refuses to have a baby because she's selfish and committed to her career.' Or that I'm sad and heartbroken," Aniston told InStyle in 2018. "First, with all due respect, I'm not heartbroken. And second, those are reckless assumptions. No one knows what's going on behind closed doors. No one considers how sensitive that might be for my partner and me. They don't know what I've been through medically or emotionally. There is a pressure on women to be mothers, and if they are not, then they're deemed damaged goods. Maybe my purpose on this planet isn't to procreate. Maybe I have other things I'm supposed to do."
