Kim Basinger Makes Rare Comments About Alec Baldwin Relationship

Alec and Kim married in 1993 and divorced in 2002, when Ireland was 7. They battled in court over custody of their daughter for several years. In 2007, a voicemail Alec had left Ireland, originally contained in a sealed file from the former couple’s court battle, leaked online and went viral.

The 30 Rock alum later apologized for the audio recording, in which he had called his and Kim’s daughter a “rude, thoughtless little pig” for not answering his call at a pre-arranged time and his ex-wife a “thoughtless pain in the a–.”

“I’m sorry, as everyone who knows me is aware, for losing my temper with my child,” he said in a statement on his website one day later. “I have been driven to the edge by parental alienation for many years now.”

Ireland went on to poke fun at the now-infamous voicemail, including at her dad’s 2019 Comedy Central roast. “It’s good to be here,” she joked at the event. “I almost didn’t even know about it because I haven’t check my voicemails from my dad from the last, like, 12 years.”
