A new video shows Hilaria Baldwin struggling to recall the English word for “onion,” leading to heavy online criticism.
Previously, Baldwin presented herself as Spanish, causing controversy after it was revealed she is actually American, born as Hillary Hayward-Thomas in Boston.
In the posted video, Baldwin spoke in a strong Spanish accent while cooking, prompting skepticism about her authenticity.
While some online users criticized her for cultural appropriation, others expressed empathy, citing common experiences among bilingual speakers.
The incident caused many to revisit Baldwin's past statements about her identity and roots, maintaining she has always been honest about her background.
