Amy Schumer has struck a chord with Hilaria Baldwin over her dubious Spanish accent amid accusations that the Boston-born yoga guru has been pretending to his ancestors for years.
“I understand. I’ve been to Spain a few times and I liked it too,” the comedian wrote on Sunday, in a post on Instagram deleted since then, of a photo with sunglasses and an oversized beach hat.
The post included a cucumber emoji – a thin veiled reference to Baldwin, 36, “forgetting” the English word for vegetables during a “Today” segment of the show.
Schumer and Baldwin changed their beards last week after the comedian jokingly posted a photo of a Baldwin in lingerie and her newborn, claiming it happened to her, and wrote that she “wants to wish everyone a happy holiday.”
Baldwin responded with a video about body-shamers – and promptly confused fans by bursting into an American accent.
Baldwin, who has five children with actor Alec Baldwin, had to defend his fluctuating accent and questions about her inheritance from a viral tweet from Leni Briscoe who wrote: “You have to admire Hilary Baldwin’s commitment to her decades of care in imitating a Spanish person.”
In an Instagram video, Hilaria admitted that she was born in Beantown as “Hillary”, claiming that she spent “part of my childhood in Boston, part of my childhood in Spain”.
“Yes, I’m a white girl, my family is white,” she said.
However, the biography of his agency mentions that the fitness amateur “was born in Mallorca, Spain and grew up in Boston, Massachusetts”.
On Sunday, Baldwin tried to explain her ever-changing accent, saying she was confused as well.
“If I speak a lot of Spanish, I tend to mix them up or if I speak a lot of English, that mixture is one of those things that I’ve always been a little unsure about,” she said. .
