Alec Baldwin unleashed a furious tirade at Instagram trolls who questioned the paternity of his newborn daughter Lucia, telling one user to ‘shut the f*** up’ when asked about the arrival of his youngest child, whose birth was announced just six months after his wife Hilaria gave birth to the couple’s fifth baby.

The 62-year-old SNL star told one Instagram user to ‘shut the f*** up and mind your own business’ on Monday evening after being asked ‘who is the mother’ of his baby girl amid furious speculation that the couple welcomed their daughter via a surrogate.

Alec and Hilaria announced the arrival of the baby girl on Monday, sharing an image of the newborn with her mother and siblings – but sharing no other information about her identity, or her birth, prompting some critics to accuse them of ‘attention-seeking’ and ‘clickbait’.

‘Who’s the mother? She wasn’t pregnant. She gave birth six months ago,’ one commenter wrote. ‘If it was a surrogate just say that. If the baby was adopted just say that. If the baby was a product of an affair and you’ve decided to raise it with your wife just say that.

‘If you don’t want to say anything – why don’t you both stop constantly posting and begging for clickbait. Just raise your 100 children in private.’

He made the same comment to another user who wrote ‘yikes’ beneath the photo that he shared of his wife and their six children: Carmen, seven, Rafael, five, Leonardo, four, Romeo, two, Eduardo, six months, and newborn Lucia.

‘I believe that people should simply say “Congratulations” or just shut the f**k up. That’s it,’ Alec wrote, before once again deleting the comment.
