The 65-year-old actor recently attended a social event for the first time in a long time. Alec and his wife Hilaria were guests at the PEN America Spring Literary Gala in New York, dedicated to literature and the arts. A rare appearance turned into another trouble for the Golden Globe winner.
Baldwin had a conflict with the staff serving the table. The actor emotionally scolded the girl, after which she looked scared and upset. Eyewitnesses to the incident indicated that Alec was annoyed that the waiters were arranging the plates, which distracted him from communicating with the guests.
An employee of the institute revealed new details of the incident today. The manager said Baldwin insulted her. The girl described in detail an unpleasant conversation with a Hollywood actor.
“I’m the head of staff, which means I actually tell the waiters when to put the plates. We have to do it in a certain order. I was about to serve the dishes for the head of the table: for the one he was talking to. So I went up and said: “I’m sorry, sir, we have waiters here, they will walk between the tables in a minute,” – said the actor’s spokesman.
The head waiter admitted that Alec had intervened at that point. According to her, the actor reacted emotionally to her request. Baldwin addressed her “patronisingly”.
“So when is the right time to talk to my friends?” Alec asked. According to an employee of the institution, Baldwin was “very excited”. “Do I have to explain it to you?” Alec continued. The American did not want to inflate the conflict, so she agreed with the actor. “Then get out of the way,” ordered the grandfather of the newborn Holland.
The manager apologized, but later learned from colleagues about the offensive phrase Baldwin had thrown at her. “After that, many of my colleagues came up to me and said, ‘Do you know what he said when you were leaving?’ ,” PageSix quotes an employee of the institution.
The manager admitted that she made a similar request to other guests, including Colin Yost. According to the girl, he politely stepped aside.
Last month, Alec Baldwin was able to withdraw charges for the murder of cameraman Galina Hutchins. The actor thanked his wife, who supported him in a dramatic period of his life.
