Just hours after Alec Baldwin returned to Instagram, his first post sparked controversy. The post featured a picture of his wife Hilaria and their son, Leo. Baldwin captioned the photo with a joking remark, “The old ‘let me give you a back rub’ ploy.” Some commenters criticized Baldwin for sexualizing what they saw as an innocent and sweet photo.
One user wrote, “That’s a pretty weird comment to make on a photo of your son and his mother ????.” Another commented, “This caption is disgusting.” In response to the backlash, Baldwin added, “Potato chips to follow,” to the comments of the post, explaining that he made the adjustment due to the negative feedback from internet trolls.

Recent Tragedy and Legal Issues
Baldwin’s return to Instagram comes in the wake of the tragic shooting incident on the set of his film “Rust,” which resulted in the death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins. Baldwin and the film’s weapons handler, Hannah Gutierrez Reed, are both facing charges of involuntary manslaughter. Reports indicate that the film’s assistant director, David Halls, has already pleaded guilty to charges related to the incident. Halls had handed Baldwin the gun, deeming it safe before the accident occurred.
Investigation Findings and Filming Continuation
The investigation into the incident revealed that the gun was functional and could only fire if the trigger was pulled. Initially, it was believed that the gun was “cold” and did not contain live rounds. Despite the tragedy, it has been confirmed that filming for “Rust” will continue. The movie’s producer, Matthew Hutchins, the husband of Halyna Hutchins, will also take on the role of executive producer of the film.
