Hilaria Baldwin Defends 12-Year-Old Daughter’s Outfit in Instagram Video, Then Deletes the Post

She framed the backlash as shaming, emphasizing safety lessons over public scolding.

Overview

  • In a nearly five-minute Instagram Reel posted Monday, Baldwin addressed criticism of Carmen’s tank top, skirt, tights and a reported body-chain.
  • A frequently cited comment asked, “How on earth do you let a 12 y/o dress like this … EVERYTHING!”, which prompted her direct response.
  • She used a whiteboard and a “pie” analogy about patriarchy and female life stages to argue that shaming girls stems from scarcity thinking.
  • Baldwin said her children are taught online and street safety and asserted that Instagram shaming does not protect kids from predators.
  • Page Six reports the response video was later deleted, and coverage situates the episode in her pattern of public rebuttals, including recent age-shaming pushback and claims of coordinated cyberbullying during her Dancing With the Stars run.
