Alec Baldwin’s wife Hilaria appears to be trying to send a message through her clothes as she broke cover for a coffee ride the day after her husband vowed to fight manslaughter.
Hilaria, 39, left her luxury Manhattan apartment building with several of her children this morning – two coffees in hand.
Baldwin, 64, has not been seen since announcing that he and Rust gunsmith Hannah Gutierrez-Reed would be charged with manslaughter in the death of Halyna Hutchins.
Hilaria was wearing a green sweatshirt with “EMPATHY” written – valued at $108 – on the front as she looked pale and donned large dark glasses to cover her face.

Just yesterday, she was spotted wearing a beige hoodie with “HUMAN” written on the front, picking up her children from their driver on Thursday.
Before the announcement, she was all smiles, dripping in diamonds as she left Thursday morning, cell phone in one hand with a coffee mug.
Wearing a faux fur bomber jacket, her signature leather-look track leggings and oversized sunglasses, the mother-of-seven rounded off her look with a pair of $300 beaded and rhinestone-encrusted slippers from Spanish brand Alameda Turquesa.
Hilaria, who married the Oscar-nominated actor in 2012, was spotted taking her children to school on Thursday – before the charges were announced.
When she went to pick them up later that afternoon, her facial expression had changed noticeably.

Baldwin’s attorneys say he will put the charges into context and insist he cannot be held responsible for the on-set prop guns, which were the responsibility of gunsmith Hannah Gutierrez-Reed.
The film’s assistant director, Dave Halls, pleaded guilty to negligence and received a six-month suspended sentence.
Santa Fe prosecutor Mary Carmack-Altwies snarled at Baldwin as she announced the charges, saying, “An actor doesn’t get a free pass,” as she insisted he pulled the trigger on the gun that killed Hutchins.
He and Gutierrez-Reed face up to 18 months in prison if convicted of involuntary manslaughter.
If they are also convicted of weapon enhancement on this charge, they face a mandatory five-year prison sentence.

In a statement, Baldwin’s attorney said: “This decision distorts the tragic death of Halyna Hutchins and constitutes a horrific miscarriage of justice. Mr. Baldwin had no reason to believe there was a live bullet in the gun – or anywhere on the film set.
In a statement, Baldwin’s attorney said: “This decision distorts the tragic death of Halyna Hutchins and constitutes a horrific miscarriage of justice.
‘Mr. Baldwin had no reason to believe there was a live bullet in the gun — or anywhere on the film set.
“He relied on the professionals he worked with to reassure him that the gun had no live cartridges. We will fight these allegations and we will win.”
Carmack-Altwies told CNN they concluded that Baldwin pulled the trigger — and that he ran a “fast and loose set” that was plagued by safety issues.

“There was such a lack of security and safety standards on this set. There were live rounds on set, they were mixed in with dummy rounds.
“Nobody checked these, or at least they didn’t check them regularly.
“They were sort of loaded into a gun, handed over to Alec Baldwin, he didn’t check, he didn’t do what he was supposed to do to make sure he was safe or that someone else was safe.
“He pointed the gun at Halyna Hutchins and pulled the trigger,” she said.
She said a “total of circumstances” led to the decision, adding, “This was a really fast and loose set. And that nobody did their job.’
Her appearance comes after Mickey Rourke jumped to Alec’s defense and insisted that he “no way” should be charged for shooting Rust’s camerawoman on set.
Rourke, 70, who appeared on Baldwin’s podcast in 2016, said it was wrong to prosecute the Oscar-nominated actor.

Posting on Instagram, he said, “I never normally put my 2 cents in for what happens on someone’s movie set.”
“It is a terrible tragedy what happened to cinematographer Halyna Hutchins.
“But by no means should actor Alec Baldwin be charged with any negligence.”
Baldwin, who has since liked Rourke’s post, insists he is not responsible for the shooting and points out that he trusted the firearms professionals employed on set. His attorney said he expected his release.
Rourke claimed it was wrong to expect Baldwin to manage the gun safety aspects of the set.

“Most actors don’t know anything about guns, especially if they didn’t grow up with them,” he continued.
‘Alec did not bring the gun to the set from his house or his car, if guns are involved on a film set the guns should only be handled by the ‘gun armour’.
“In some cases the 1st AD hands a weapon to an actor, but more often than not the weapon is given to the actor directly from the ‘armour of arms’.
“That’s Armor’s job on set. To have an expert on every kind of dangerous weapon.’
Rourke said the actors could then either “dry fire the gun” or check the barrel themselves.
He said the decision to charge Baldwin was “terribly wrong,” adding, “I’m sure Alec is already suffering enough from what happened. But blaming him is terribly wrong.”
