Stephen Baldwin is a proud dad! The Fled actor made a rare comment about daughter Hailey Bieber’s success during his Wednesday, September 17, appearance on Tori Spelling’s “MisSPELLING” podcast.
“Some people achieve all different levels of experience and success. Look at my daughter. I never talk about her, but my daughter has done the impossible, relatively. But in this day and age, in the last 10 years, it’s not impossible. It’s happened,” Baldwin, 59, said. “It’s like these kinds of successes are happening. And young people are making unbelievable amounts of money on the Internet in ways that are very sketchy. So God bless her.”
Stephen shares Hailey, 28, and daughter Alaia, 32, with wife Kennya Baldwin.
Both Hailey and Alaia are fashion models who have worked with brands like Tommy Hilfiger, Calvin Klein and more. Alaia is also an advocate for endometriosis awareness. Meanwhile, Hailey launched her skincare brand, Rhode, in 2022. e.l.f. Beauty acquired the brand for $1 million in May, and Stephen praised Hailey for the business move.
“The cool part of it is she’s super smart, smart in business,” Stephen said on “The Adam Carolla Show” podcast in July. “Succeeded as a model prior to everything she’s doing now. But the cool part was she actually had an offer to do something pretty big and cool in the cosmetics a couple years ago and didn’t.”
Stephen added that Hailey decided to make a product that she herself would want to use — and her gamble paid off.
“The reason it’s succeeding is people are responding to it. It actually works as hydration and all of that,” he continued.
Stephen also gushed about his daughters’ romantic partners. (Hailey married Justin Bieber in 2018, and the pair welcomed son Jack Blues in August 2024. Meanwhile, Alaia tied the knot with businessman Andrew Aronow in 2017, and they share daughter Iris, 5.)
“I’m blessed that my two daughters married two great guys,” he gushed.
Stephen concluded, “The sweet part of my kids too is, in the wake of whatever their success is, their dad remains the same. I’ve always been the same way. You know you’re going to tell your daughter the truth.”
Back in December, Stephen gushed about his life as a grandfather of two and how much he was looking forward to Christmas with Jack, now 13 months old.
“He’s grown like a weed. Actually, he looks like a little plump potato,” the Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test alum told TooFab. “He’s so cute. I can’t stand it. I want to say so much.”
Stephen also shared his special grandparent nickname.
“Grampy. We’re going with Grampy. But it’s with a W. A lot of people don’t know that,” he continued. “So G-W-A-M-P-Y is Gwampy. So that’s kind of the handle I’ve been going with. It was my granddaughter Iris, my first grandchild. It was the name she gave me.”
