Alec Baldwin is angry again.
That’s not really news, as this guy seems to wake up in a bad mood just about every day.
But this time, Alec has good reason to be furious, as he crashed his Range Rover into a tree in the Hamptons on Monday — and he swears it wasn’t his fault.
Alec opens up about close call in the Hamptons
The crash took place on Monday afternoon, and it seems that Alec’s brother Stephen Baldwin was riding shotgun.
Alec opened up about the accident in an Instagram Story.
“I crushed my wife’s car and I feel bad about that. But it’s all fine and I’m fine and my brother’s fine,” he explained, adding:
“My brother Stephen was visiting me. And we spent the weekend out there for the film festival.”
The brothers were both in town to attend the Hamptons International Film Festival.
“This morning I was in a car accident, this guy cut me off,” Alec continued, according to Page Six.
“A big garbage truck … a garbage truck the size of a whale … it was the biggest garbage truck I’d ever seen … to avoid hitting him, I hit a tree. I hit a big fat tree and crushed my wife’s car.”
Alec concluded by stating that he would be flying home to Los Angeles to reunite with his controversial wife, Hilaria Baldwin.
“I’m still so proud of my wife,” he said, seemingly referring to Hilaria’s recent elimination from Dancing With the Stars.
A rocky couple of years for the Baldwin family
This is not, of course, the first time that Alec has been involved in an accident — and the last one had fatal consequences.
Though Alec was cleared of any wrongdoing in the shooting death of Halyna Hutchins on the set of the movie Rust, we’re sure the incident will stay with him for the rest of his life.
Hutchins was killed when a prop gun held by Baldwin went off, but investigators ruled that the film’s armorer was at fault, not Baldwin.
Hopefully, Alec’s return flight to Los Angeles was uneventful, and he’s now safely reunited with Hilaria and their seven children.
We’re sure she’ll be forgiving about the car.
