Alec Baldwin, the 65-year-old actor, was recently seen using a cane as he recovers from hip surgery. The procedure took place on May 30, and he expects to rely on the cane for a few more weeks until he fully regains his strength and balance. Despite the challenges, Baldwin is grateful to be active once again.
The cane supports his left side, which underwent the surgery. Baldwin paired the metal cane with a black blazer, navy blue button-down shirt, black t-shirt, navy blue pants, and black loafers. This marked his first public appearance since the operation.

His wife, Hilaria Baldwin, announced the surgery on May 30, posting a photo of herself in a hospital bed with Baldwin by her side. She described the surgery as necessary and expressed gratitude to the doctors, nurses, and staff who supported them. Alec thanked her for her support and expressed his desire to leave behind the chronic pain he had been experiencing.
Just five days after the surgery, Alec Baldwin shared a video on Instagram explaining the reasons behind the operation. He mentioned he had hip surgery on his left side five years ago and decided to address his right hip this time. Despite needing the surgery for several years, work commitments and glucose issues had delayed it. He spoke about the intense pain during the surgery but acknowledged it was worth it to prevent further damage as he ages.
Alec Baldwin’s hip surgery comes shortly after he became a first-time grandfather. His eldest daughter, 27-year-old Ireland Baldwin, welcomed her first child with boyfriend André Allen Anjos. Alec shared a throwback photo on Instagram of him with Ireland when she was a little girl, expressing his love and joy for the new addition to the family. Hilaria Baldwin also posted a photo of their large family on Instagram, congratulating Ireland and Andre on their new arrival.
In addition to family news, Baldwin also celebrated the completion of the movie “Rust,” which had been marred by a tragic accident. Baldwin accidentally shot and killed a cinematographer with what was believed to be a prop gun. After pausing production, they recently finished filming the movie.
