In her latest book, Manual Not Included, Hilaria Baldwin opens up about a bitter encounter with a well-known celebrity—one she had never met, but whose comments deeply affected her. Though she doesn’t directly name Amy Schumer, Hilaria reflects on a famous person who made harsh and false remarks about her and her family. Hilaria writes, “She even tried to provoke me and Alec on Instagram.”
She goes on to say that despite her frustration, she chose not to engage, feeling proud that she remained calm. “I don’t need her apology,” Hilaria writes. “No matter what, I hope I never meet her.”
This moment of confrontation, according to Hilaria, led to extreme stress and made her rethink how celebrities engage with each other. The Hilaria Baldwin memoir shines a light on how public figures can impact one another, whether through humor or mean-spirited remarks.
The Personal Toll of Public Scrutiny in the Hilaria Baldwin Memoir
The Hilaria Baldwin memoir also reveals how the constant scrutiny of her cultural background, particularly her accent, contributed to her emotional toll. Hilaria shares how a special episode from Schumer’s Netflix special Emergency Contact took a toll on her mental health. In it, Schumer poked fun at the controversy over Hilaria’s Spanish heritage and accent, which sparked a viral debate in 2020.
But Hilaria remains resolute: she does not seek an apology. Instead, she uses her book as a platform to express her truth. Through these pages, readers get a deeper understanding of the human side of public figures often reduced to headlines.
