Hilaria Baldwin shared that her nine-year-old son Leo had a scary accident during a family beach getaway, ending up in hospital with a cut above his eyebrow that required medical attention.
The wellness influencer posted a carousel of photos to Instagram on Monday, including shots of Leo lying on a hospital bed with his forehead examined, sitting in a wheelchair and later showing off his bandaged wound with the resilience only a nine-year-old can muster.
“Trigger warning: Leo split his forehead and we were well cared for at the hospital. I’m so grateful for the kindness and care,” she wrote in her caption.
She was quick to reassure her followers that the rest of the trip had been much more peaceful.
“Besides that, it was the beach, together, we practiced walking like… Memories made. I missed them so much it hurt.
The post also included videos of the family enjoying time by the water, including one of husband Alec, 67, splashing in the ocean.
The getaway came after Hilaria, 42, had been away on a work trip since March 8, during which she openly spoke about how much she missed her family.
“My heart hurts because I’m leaving all my babies at home,” she wrote at the time.
“My kids asked me how many hugs and kisses would be enough: I told them there was no number that would stop us from missing each other and hurting each other every day.”
Hilaria and Alec share seven children, daughter Carmen, 12, sons Rafael, 10, Leo, Romeo, 7, and Eduardo, 5, and daughters María Lucía, 4, and Ilaria, 3.
Aside from Leo’s hospital visit, it seems the reunion was everything she hoped for.
