Hilaria Baldwin Reflects on Two-Decade Struggle With Eating Disorders

Speaking on the Page Six Radio program in July 2026, Baldwin revealed the psychological toll of her past, describing a period where she could not distinguish between hunger and fullness. Her experience spanned a spectrum of behaviors including anorexia, bulimia, and cycles of overeating and undereating. She described the isolation of the condition, noting that social outings like restaurant dinners became sources of intense stress, driven by a distorted self-image that persisted even when she appeared healthy to others.

Baldwin traced the origins of these habits to age five, describing a long-standing feeling that something was fundamentally broken within her. Since first addressing the topic in her 2016 book, The Living Clearly Method, she has transitioned her focus toward yoga and wellness. Today, she emphasizes to her children that food choices should be based on physical strength and emotional well-being rather than weight. By removing the focus on appearance, she suggests, the obsessive patterns that defined her youth have finally begun to recede.
