Hilaria Baldwin openly admitted that she and her husband, Alec Baldwin, are ‘not okay’ following tragic Rust shooting during a preview interview with Extra published Friday.

The yoga instructor, 38, stated tearfully, ‘We can’t be okay. No one is okay.’ The emotional statement came a little over one year since cinematographer Halyna Hutchins was fatally shot on set on October 21, 2021 due to a prop gun with live rounds that was accidentally discharged while in the hands of Baldwin, 64.

The mother of seven further expressed that, ‘It was and is a tragedy that nobody could ever have imagined.’

Hilaria could be seen sitting in a chair with city skyscrapers sprawled out behind her through a large window amid the interview. 

The businesswoman donned an all-black ensemble, and carefully listened to the interviewer asking about how the Baldwin family was coping following the fatal shooting. 

Initially, the podcaster remained silent as she took in a deep breath, and then answered with her voice cracking, ‘We’re not okay.’ 

Shortly after the tragedy, Alec was involved in a ‘wrongful death’ lawsuit filed by Halyna’s family, which included her husband, Matthew. Earlier this year in October, both parties reached a settlement. 

The 30 Rock actor shared the news on Instagram, writing in the caption, ‘Throughout this difficult process, everyone has maintained the specific desire to do what is best for Halyna’s son.’  

‘We are grateful to everyone who contributed to the resolution of this tragic and painful situation,’ he concluded. 

According to People, Matthew had released a statement of his own, ‘All of us believe Halyna’s death was a terrible accident. I am grateful that the producers and the entertainment community have come together to pay tribute to Halyna’s final work.’  

Also in October, the actor uploaded a tribute to Halyna on Instagram on the one-year anniversary of her tragic death, simply adding the caption, ‘One year ago today…’

Last month in November, Alec officially sued Rust crew members and the armorer for negligence and for supplying a prop gun loaded with ammunition. 

According to The New York Times, the lawsuit stated, ‘This tragedy happened because live bullets were delivered to the set and loaded into the gun.’

‘Though by no means comparable, Baldwin must live with the immense grief, and the resulting emotional, physical, and financial toll, caused by the fact that Cross-Defendants’ negligent conduct, assurances, and supervision put a loaded weapon in his hand,’ the lawsuit continued. 

‘And led him, Hutchins, and everyone else on set to believe that his directed use of the weapon was safe.’ Along with the cinematographer being fatally shot, a producer on set, Joel Souza, was also shot and injured. 

In December of last year, two months after the tragedy, Alec opened up during a candid interview with ABC’s George Stephanopoulos

Alec had stated that he, ‘didn’t pull the trigger,’ while on set at Bonanza Creek Ranch in Sante Fe. ‘I would never point a gun at anyone and pull the trigger at them, never.’ 

In March of this year, he also followed legal papers in which he denied having any responsibility in the fatal shooting, according to The New York Post.

Following Hutchins’s tragic death on set of Rust last year, Hilaria has continuously shown support for her husband. 

In July, the podcast host shared a lengthy post where she emotionally expressed how ‘grateful’ she was for Alec. 

She told her husband to, ‘turn down the volume on the darkness and negativity,’ and that it was easier, ‘now more than ever to slander people and cherry pick and piece together strands taken out of context, ‘opinions’, or complete fabrications.’ 

Hilaria also added that ‘enemies’ were seeking to ‘destroy him.’ The star further penned, ‘I am the one that sees you in your dark moments…the human moments,’ and that, ‘So many love you, AB, we are here for you to lean on and feel safe.’ 

In August, she shared another heartfelt post to the actor, typing, ‘I am not going anywhere. Take all the time to be sad. I am here.’

During the preview interview with Extra, which airs in full-length on Monday, December 5, opened up briefly about their large family. 

‘I would say that we’re done, but I said we were done with six,’ Hilaria revealed as she held her two-month-old daughter. 

‘But Alec still has to go and do his part. So if he does not do his part, sometimes things can happen,’ the entrepreneur added.
