Alec Baldwin has truly fallen from grace with fans—after the accidental fatal shooting on the set of his movie, Rust, he’s been under close watch, which is why fans were quick to criticize his Father’s Day post. The father-of-eight posted a carousel of photos to celebrate fatherhood, but included a photo of his 10-year-old daughter wearing a noticeable amount of make-up, something fans had a lot of thoughts on.

Alec Baldwin Posts A Photo Of His Daughter Wearing Makeup
The 66-year-old actor has four daughters, Ireland, 28, Ilaria, 1, María, 3, and Carmen, 10, and four sons, Rafael, 8, Leonardo, 7, Romeo, 6, and Eduardo, 3. He posted photos of all of his beloved kiddos to commemorate Father’s Day, but it was the one of Carmen that raised some eyebrows with fans.
The photo, which is the second photo in the first carousel he posted, shows Carmen holding one of her younger sisters and smiling softly at the camera. The 10-year-old is clearly wearing both lip gloss and mascara, which seems innocent enough, but the comment section turned into a debate anyways.
Fans Argue Over Alec Baldwin's Instagram Post
Baldwin's post garnered over 7,000 comments, most of which saw fans arguing over the photo of Carmen. "Why is she wearing makeup? one person asked.
"You'll have so much time later to wear makeup," another person said. "Enjoy your little girl face!"
"She's only 10 years old," added a third.
But others defended the actor. "What's the big deal?" one person asked. "Shut your negative mouths and move on."
"My grandkids love to wear makeup and it is just fun!" another person said.
"Little girls wear tutus, tiaras, and poorly applied blue and green eye shadow," a final fan said. "They are PLAYING! If you are seeing something inappropriate or sinister, that's on you."
