\n

The resurfaced audio clip has reignited public debate, emerging just days after Ireland notably left her father out of a Father’s Day tribute on social media. The voicemail, originally made public in 2007 during Baldwin\u2019s bitter custody battle with ex-wife Kim Basinger, features the actor delivering a heated message to his then 11-year-old daughter.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Upset over a missed phone call, Balwin expressed anger and disappointment,\u00a0telling<\/a>\u00a0Ireland she had “insulted [him] for the last time.” He continued by criticizing her intelligence and decency, going on to blame Basinger for what he viewed as Ireland’s disrespectful behavior.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Baldwin, then embroiled in a highly public divorce, vented his frustration further in the message,\u00a0saying<\/a>\u00a0he felt “humiliated” due to her failure to answer his call.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Channeling the intensity of his on-screen personas, the actor threatened to fly out and confront his daughter,\u00a0vowing to<\/a>\u00a0“straighten [her] out” and reiterating his belief that she was “a rude little pig.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

This week, the message began circulating once more online, prompted by a recent post from Ireland in which she honored her partner RAC and his father for Father’s Day, while omitting any mention of the actor.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The silence caught attention, with some interpreting it as a pointed exclusion. Online reactions to the voicemail\u2019s resurgence have been swift and varied.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

One commenter\u00a0stated<\/a>,\u00a0“Doesn’t matter if it was the 90’s, 00\u2019’ or today, you cannot speak to your daughter like that.

Others expressed personal disbelief, with one user\u00a0noting<\/a>,\u00a0“My father has NEVER spoken to me like this!”\u00a0<\/i>Yet not all the responses were critical.

When the voicemail first made headlines in April 2007, Baldwin responded publicly with a statement on his website. He explained that the outburst stemmed from what he described as years of being estranged from his daughter, a situation he attributed to parental alienation.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

At the time, Baldwin expressed regret, saying he had been pushed to his limit and apologized for losing his temper, noting that only those who had experienced such circumstances could truly understand his frustration.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

He also referenced the prolonged custody battle with ex-wife Basinger, stating he had endured considerable emotional strain over the years.

Now a father of eight, Baldwin shares seven children with his wife Hilaria: daughters Carmen, Maria, and Ilaria, and sons Rafael, Leonardo, Romeo, and Eduardo. In May 2023, he faced criticism after referring to his younger children as his seven reasons to carry on during some tough times.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Following backlash over the apparent omission of Ireland, he amended the comment, lightheartedly acknowledging his eldest by saying she was the first one and joking that she was about to make him a grandfather.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
