Hailey Bieber’s dad Stephen Baldwin makes rare comments about her after she hints at family rift
Stephen Baldwin is in awe of his daughter Hailey Bieber’s business skills.
The actor, 59, made rare comments about 28-year-old Bieber, praising her massive success with her makeup and skincare line, Rhode.
“I never talk about her, but my daughter has done the impossible, relatively,” he said on Tori Spelling’s podcast, “MisSPELLING,” Tuesday. “But in this day and age, in the last 10 years, it’s not impossible. It’s happened.”
“It’s like these kinds of successes are happening,” he continued. “And young people are making unbelievable amounts of money on the Internet in ways that are very sketchy.”
“So God bless her.”
Baldwin shares Bieber and his oldest daughter, 32-year-old Alaia, with his wife, Kennya Baldwin.
Baldwin’s admission comes one year after Bieber hinted at a frosty relationship with her family.
“I’m not super close with my family at this point in my life because I feel like I’m very independent. I’m my own individual now, and I’ve built my own family,” she told W magazine in July 2024.
The model shared that she had a “fairly normal childhood” despite her famous family.
“But when I look back on my childhood and how I grew up, I have very fond, beautiful memories,” she said.
“Obviously, I come from the family that I come from, and I always recognized that that was different,” she added.
Shortly after the interview was published, Baldwin posted a cryptic selfie video on Instagram that seemed to be in response to his daughter’s quotes.
Baldwin stared into the camera before giving a slight smirk and simply saying, “I love you.”
He then looked away from the camera and into the distance before returning his gaze to the camera and smirking a second time.
The actor did have words of praise for his son-in-law Justin Bieber this past July, as divorce rumors swirled between Hailey and Justin.
Baldwin described himself as “blessed” on the “Adam Carolla Show” podcast, because both his daughters have “married two great guys.”
