Alec Baldwin Reflects on Divorce's Impact on Daughter Ireland

The actor discusses the lasting effects of his contentious custody battle with Kim Basinger on their now-adult daughter during his new reality show.

Alec Baldwin revealed on his TLC show 'The Baldwins' that his divorce from Kim Basinger negatively affected his relationship with their daughter, Ireland Baldwin.
The divorce, finalized in 2002, included a seven-year custody battle that Baldwin described as 'insanity' and 'really, really tough.'
Baldwin expressed regret over how the publicized conflict impacted Ireland, who was seven years old at the time, and apologized for his actions, including a leaked voicemail incident in 2007.
Ireland, now 29 and a mother herself, has since reconciled with Baldwin, who says they now share a 'good relationship.'
Baldwin emphasized that he is applying lessons from his past parenting challenges to his current relationship with his younger children from his marriage to Hilaria Baldwin.
