Alec Baldwin, 66, reveals if he's open to possibility of becoming a father again after welcoming eight children
Alec Baldwin got candid about his chances of becoming a father again while on the Our Way with Paul Anka and Skip Bronson podcast.
The 66-year-old actor joked 'I'm the only person I know who drops four kids off at school in the morning and comes home and I still have three kids waiting for me when I get home,' as transcribed by PEOPLE.
'I have eight children. I got my oldest daughter. She has a baby and she and her boyfriend are living in Oregon. I met my wife [Hilaria Baldwin] and we got married and had seven kids in nine years. It's crazy,' the Rust star explained.
Alec and Hilaria share daughters Carmen, 10, Maria, three, and Ilaria , 16 months, as well as sons Rafael, eight, Leonardo, seven, Romeo, five, and Eduardo 'Edu' Pao Lucas, three.
The actor also has daughter Ireland, 28, with ex-wife Kim Basinger, 70.
When asked if he was considering having more children - despite already being a father of eight - Alec said: 'Oh man, how dare you ask me that question. I think I'm done.'

The actor went on: 'I found that as I got older, work became less interesting to me. I'm interested, you know, I wanna work and I like to work. But they just don't make that many films anymore that I think are interesting.
'Plus, we're all older. Whatever I've done in the past, I try not to be duplicative of that,' he told the hosts.
'Then all of a sudden I met [Hilaria], who I love dearly. And every time the [youngest] baby would get to be 2 years old, we go, "Maybe it's time for one more baby — just one more baby…" So we have seven kids.'
In June of last year his wife Hilaria opened up with Romper about the subject and being on the same page as Alec.
'This is probably, most definitely, almost completely my last baby,' she said of her youngest.
'I'm always afraid to say it. I was putting away my maternity clothes recently and was like, 'I'm afraid to give them away, because then I'll find out I'm pregnant,'' she joked with the outlet.
The 40-year-old Massachusetts native also admitted that her OB tried to drop hints at a vasectomy every time she came in pregnant.
'Every single time I have a baby, my OB writes down the vasectomy doctor on a Post-It, and I bring it home to Alec,' she said, 'He hasn't done it yet.'
The loving couple was first linked at Sarma Melngailis' New York restaurant Pure Food and Wine on February 18, 2011.
It would take another six weeks until they started dating, which was in August of 2011.
They ended up getting married in a Catholic ceremony on June 29, 2012 at the Basilica of St. Patrick's Old Cathedral in New York City.

The news comes after Baldwin's lawyer, Alex Spiro, filed new legal documents to be let off the hook in the Rust manslaughter case.
The verdict spells trouble for Baldwin when he goes on trial in July in the same courthouse for involuntary manslaughter. If found guilty he faces 18 months in jail.
Baldwin was originally charged with involuntary manslaughter, but the allegations were dropped in April last year. He was dramatically charged again last month and pleaded not guilty.
The shooting happened in October 2021 after two weeks of filming while Baldwin was practicing drawing out his gun from the holster.
