He started things off by saying “I wanted to take a moment to say thank you to all the people who sent me such kind words and best wishes and strength and hope and prayers, thoughts and lots of encouragement,” the actor said as he stood outside.
“I got hundreds, hundreds of emails from friends, family and colleagues and people I haven’t heard from in quite a while to send me strength and good wishes and so forth. I’m really grateful to them.”
“I’m looking forward to some aspects of this being behind me, of course. For everyone who is involved in this, it’ll never be behind us because someone died so tragically… I never lose sight of that, not a day goes by I don’t think about that,” he added.
Alec also said that the only thing that he cares about right now is being home with his family, which includes his wife Hilaria Baldwin and their six kids. Alec also shares his daughter Ireland Baldwin with his ex-wife Kim Basinger.
“It’s true, I only care about my wife and my kids and moving forward with my life and trying to get through a tough time, a really tough time,” he said. “I want to say thank you to all the people who sent me good wishes who sent me support. I’m really grateful for that, I feel very awkward going through this, it’s been very difficult.”
“Whatever holiday you’re celebrating, happy holidays to everybody,” he continued. “I hope that you’re as lucky as I am in one department, that you’re home with your family; I’m home with my family.”
Baldwin added, “I don’t have anything smart or original to say, just thank you to the people who sent me these great wishes. Be safe, wear a mask, get the booster. Don’t let Santa Claus down the chimney without a mask.”
