Stephen Baldwin shared a cryptic post after his pregnant daughter Hailey Bieber revealed she’s not ‘super close’ with her family anymore.
The actor, 58, who shares Hailey, 27 with wife Kennya Baldwin, shared a video of himself smiling at the camera before uttering: ‘I love you’ and staring into the distance.
He captioned the video: ‘Today, staying positive is a choice !! so I’m trusting in the power of joy, peace, and happiness. Finally if anyone hasn’t told you today, I LOVE YOU.’
Fans were quick to call out the timing of the video’s release – with one writing: ‘Sadly your daughter don’t love you. your [sic] embarrassing her.’ while another typed: ‘Your daughter is ashamed of you.’
Others praised the star for spreading positivity, with one saying, “I needed this. Thanks!” and another adding, “Stephen, that felt genuine and sincere… sending positivity right back to you!”
This comes after Hailey told W magazine that she is not as close to her birth family these days as she expects her first child with husband Justin Bieber.
Hailey is also the niece of actor Alec Baldwin, who is starring in a new reality TV show with wife Hilaria. Her cousin is Guess model Ireland Baldwin whose mother is movie star Kim Basinger.
The pal of Kendall Jenner does not really see much of her famous family these days, she noted during her cover interview.
‘I’m not super close with my family at this point in my life because I feel like I’m very independent. I’m my own individual now, and I’ve built my own family,’ she said of being married to pop king Justin.
But the blonde added she has ‘fond’ memories of her childhood.
She told the magazine: ‘I had a fairly normal childhood. Obviously, I come from the family that I come from, and I always recognized that that was different.
‘But when I look back on my childhood and how I grew up, I have very fond, beautiful memories.’
The Rhode founder started to build her career on the catwalk towards the end of her teen years and reflected that was a time that she had to learn to stand on her own two feet while all her friends were venturing off to higher education.
She said: ‘I started traveling the world, making my own money.
‘I got my own apartment and had to learn how to live on my own and pay bills.
‘That pushed me into adulthood kind of quickly, when most of my friends were just leaving for college.’
Meanwhile, Hailey revealed that she and Peaches hitmaker Justin, 30, are just trying to enjoy the time they have together before their little one arrives.
She said: ‘In the beginning [of pregnancy], it was super emotional for me. Like, ‘I love this human so much.
‘How can I possibly bring someone else into this? I’m trying to soak in these days of it being Justin and me, just the two of us.’
Earlier this year Baldwin publicly asked for prayers for Hailey and son-in-law Justin in a Instastory, which caused concern from fans.
The Usual Suspects alum reposted a video of Justin singing, which was shared by All Things Possible Ministries founder Victor Marx and captioned: ‘Christians please when you think of Justin & Hailey, take a moment to offer a little prayer for them to have wisdom, protection, and draw close to the Lord.’
The evangelist had written that his wife Eileen Marx and Hailey’s mother Kennya ‘pray often together’ for the married couple.
‘There are special challenges that folks in high visibility positions face and also the enemy doesn’t want them to draw closer to Jesus,’ Victor wrote.
‘So often regardless of the material things or the accolades they often face spiritual warfare that intense and seeks to ship-wreck their faith, marriage, and life in general. So thank you.’
Hailey arguably would never have even met the Canadian crooner had he not been there to introduce the future couple while backstage on NBC’s TODAY back in 2009.
‘Nice to meet you,’ were the first words Hailey ever uttered to Bieber.
The two-time Grammy winner and the Rhode founder eventually began dating in 2015, and they rekindled their on/off romance in 2018 – three months after his split with Selena Gomez.
