Hilaria Baldwin hit back at backlash over her weight after posting a video with her kids on Instagram.
Newsweek reached out to Baldwin's representative via email on Tuesday for comment.
The Context
Baldwin, 41, wed actor Alec Baldwin in July 2012, and the couple share seven children: daughters Carmen, María Lucía and Ilaria, and sons Rafael, Leo, Romeo and Eduardo. Alec also shares a daughter with his ex-wife, Kim Basinger, Ireland Baldwin.
In February, Hilaria and Alec Baldwin announced their new TLC show, The Baldwins, which takes "an intimate, behind-the-scenes look" at their lives, the network said at the time.

What To Know
On Monday, Baldwin took to Instagram to share a video with two of her children. In the playful clip, Leo and Carmen each individually lifted their mom off the floor as she attempted to pick up Carmen.
"Leo and Carmen can pick me up now!" the Yoga Vida co-founder wrote. "And I am struggling to pick them up. How does this happen so fast???"
In the replies underneath the post, an Instagram user wrote: "'look how light i am!'"
In response, Baldwin said, "how about 'look how strong my kids are'????"
When a separate commenter wrote, "Because you all bones. Do you eat?" she shot back: "well yes I do" alongside a face with tears of joy emoji.
At the time of publication, her video racked up 195,000 views, over 6,400 likes and 189 comments.
In an interview with Elle in 2016, Baldwin, who was pregnant with her third child at the time, revealed what she often eats in a day. Some meals included a salmon and quinoa salad for breakfast, a quesadilla for lunch, and a salad with mushrooms, tomatoes, apples, olives, and balsamic dressing for dinner.
In terms of fitness, the Boston native said she enjoys jogging and swimming.
"I always try to listen to how I'm feeling," Hilaria Baldwin told the outlet. "It's all about having perspective about the big picture of health."
She added: "I am somebody who has dedicated my life to being healthy and to promote being healthy. It's something that I believe passionately in. Some people will call it 'cheat days,' I'm not even gonna think of it as cheating. It's all fine. It's within that healthy range that I need right now, and if this is what I want to do, then this is what I'll do."
What People Are Saying
Despite the backlash, many also praised Hilaria Baldwin's Instagram post.
One Instagram user commented: "I love seeing your relationship with your children! We can be mother and play right along with them and be best friends!"
Another Instagram user commented: "Oh this mama feels this!"
A third Instagram user wrote: "I used to do this with my mom too. She was 5"1 and I was 5"8."
A fourth Instagram user said: "Aww that is so cute. They are growing up so fast."
What Happens Next
Baldwin is scheduled to attend a celebration of her new parenting book Manual Not Included at Ari Soho in New York City on Wednesday, she shared via her Instagram Story. The book was released on May 6.

Owners Bring Home Saint Bernard, Poodle Mix—Shock at What She Grows Into
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. When bringing home a young, mixed-breed puppy, owners can only imagine what their canine will look like as an adult, which left one family with a bigger fur mess than they expected. A family didn't know what to imagine when welcoming home a Saint Bernard and poodle mix, also known as a Saint Berdoodle. This hybrid is known to be a friendly and affectionate yet protective dog, according to an article from Dogster. These gentle giants make a great family dog, especially as they are hypoallergenic. Given the dog's lineage, the owners planned for a large dog breed, but a March 16 Instagram video posted to the account @yourfriendmarley showed how they underestimated her size. The text on the video reads "when two worlds collide," accompanied by images of the two dog breeds. The product was Marley, a giant fluff baby. About 93 pounds later, their dog was fully grown, and their home was filled with endless fur. Marley stood up with her front paws propping her on the kitchen counter. She stood as tall as the man in the background. Her entire body was covered with luscious, curly hair that looked like a cloud. Newsweek reached out to @yourfriendmarley via Instagram for additional information and comment. Screenshots of two popular dog breeds, a Saint Bernard, left, and a white poodle.

Belova Veronika and RS-photography/Getty Images Like any dog, there's plenty of upkeep when it comes to a Saint Berdoodle. The owner wrote in the comment section that Marley receives six cups of food daily and a biscuit, "plus anything she sneaks." Their coats vary. Some might be medium and thick with curly hair, or long and wavy like a Saint Bernard's coat. But either way, daily grooming is essential to avoid any knots. Viewer Reactions The Instagram video amassed over 12.7 million views, 555,000 likes and 4,356 comments as of Friday. "He needs to start paying rent," joked a viewer, while a second wrote: "I thought it was AI." Another added: "That ain't no dog that's a horse." Someone else commented: "I'm a dog groomer and I think I'd die on the spot if that walked in." While many were stunned by the dog's mane, others expressed concern about breeding these two dogs together, claiming many hybrid mixes come from unethical breeders and are prone to health or behavioral issues.
