Hilaria Baldwin is setting the record straight.
The Yoga Vida founder and her husband Alec Baldwin spoke out after facing backlash over a red carpet interview they did together where she seemingly scolded him for interrupting her.
In a video shared to her Instagram March 19, the couple laid in bed together while they mouthed along to an audio clip of the interview. When the voiceover finished, Hilaria asked Alec, "And that is called, what's the word of the day?"
To which the 30 Rock alum responded, "Manterrupting."
Joking that the term could be a "positive" or a "negative"—or a case of "correctile dysfunction"—Hilaria added, "The whole point is that we interrupt each other all the time or sometimes our kids interrupt."
In fact, as the couple filmed the video, one of their seven kids—Carmen, 11, Rafael, 9, Leonardo, 8, Romeo, 6, Eduardo, 4, María Lucía, 4, and Ilaria, 2—could be heard banging on their bedroom door and calling out for "mommy," which led Hilaria to quip, "I think that's one of our children trying to get in."
But before concluding the clip to tend to her children, the matriarch had one last request for her husband.
"And now that we cleared all of that up," she told Alec, "give me a kiss."
However, Hilaria wasn't done laughing about the whole ordeal. In a separate Instagram video, the 41-year-old cuddled in bed with Alec, 66, who was closing his eyes trying to sleep. In a whisper, she hilariously asked, "I'm having a lot of women tell me they'd treat me better than I'd treat you—do you want to make a change?"
And Alec immediately played into the joke, replying, "Yeah, I think this isn't working."

One week before their light-hearted response, Hilaria and Alec faced backlash over an interview with Extra at the grand opening of Planet Hollywood, with some fans commenting that it seemed like "she's horrible to him" and accusing her of being "very rude."
In the March 11 clip, Hilaria had a strong reaction after Alec interrupted her response to being asked about a season two of their TLC reality series The Baldwins.
"Oh my god, when I'm talking, you're not talking," she told the actor. "No, when I'm talking, you're not talking."
Turning to the camera, she then joked, "See, this is why, yes, we'll have to just cut him out of the show."

Swept Away
Hilaria accompanied Alec to the Cannes Film Festival in 2012. "I've dated a lot of people since my divorce, and have thought a lot about what I wanted and what I wanted to do," he said. "I thought about it too much, I suppose. I wasn't really ready to take that chance and to act until I met Hilaria."
