Hilaria Baldwin has revealed her husband Alec Baldwin wanted to kill himself after the tragic Rust shooting.

On the latest episode of their reality show, The Baldwins, Hilaria recalled Alec stating he wanted to end his own life in a text message he sent to her the day after the fatal incident. 

‘I found these text messages the other day, between us, you know, the day after. And you know, he said he wanted to kill himself,’ she shared with a friend. 

‘He has survivor’s guilt,’ she continued in a confessional. ‘You’re involved in this thing that nobody could even possibly imagine. And so it goes back to that day. He wishes it were him.

‘He would change places in a second. This has affected his health, and his mental health tremendously.’

‘The past few years, all of the sudden he started having heart problems. He’s been hospitalized multiple times. He’s fainted… everybody’s just screaming, I’m going, I’m on top, and I’m shaking him.

‘It’s hard sometimes. But hopefully we’re in the hardest, but tail end of it.’

In October 2021, cinematographer Halyna Hutchins died when a gun the A-list actor was using as a prop discharged on the set of the western film.

The following October, Alec reached an undisclosed settlement with Hutchins’ family in their wrongful death lawsuit.

His trial for involuntary manslaughter was thrown out in August 2024.
