Through her father’s second marriage, she has seven younger half-siblings: three half-sisters and four half-brothers.[5]

At age 11 in 2007, she gained attention in the media after her father left her an angry voicemail message, which became publicized.[6]

Baldwin signed with IMG Models in March 2013.[7] In April, she made her modeling debut in a swimwear editorial for the New York Post.[8][9] In May, Baldwin appeared in W Magazine's It Trend, It Girl feature.[10] Baldwin was Vanity Fair's It Girl in June, photographed by Patrick Demarchelier.[11] Her first magazine cover appearance was for Modern Luxury's second issue of Beach in July, appearing in a white bikini.[12] Elle interviewed Baldwin in its September 2013 issue.[13][14] The editorial accompanying the interview was photographed by Thomas Whiteside and styled by Joe Zee.[15] She appeared in an editorial for DuJour magazine, photographed by Bruce Weber.[16] Baldwin made her acting debut in the film Grudge Match, playing a younger version of Kim Basinger's character, Sally.[2]

In 2014, Baldwin began studying at the New York Film Academy, mainly cinematography and acting.[17] She attended the 86th Academy Awards alongside Nancy O'Dell and Joe Zee as media correspondents for Entertainment Tonight.[18]

In April 2015, Baldwin resigned from IMG after a stint in rehab.[citation needed] She signed with DT Model Management in June 2015.[19]

In 2017, Baldwin appeared in campaigns for True Religion Jeans and Guess. In May, she appeared on the covers of Elle Bulgaria, L'Officiel Ukraine, and Marie Claire Mexico.[20][21] Baldwin appeared in the film Campus Caller as the main character, Macey Duncan.

In 2018, she posed nude for a PETA "I'd Rather Go Naked Than Wear Fur" anti-fur ad campaign, 24 years after her mother did the same.[4] The promotional video for the piece featured Baldwin stating that she has a "no fur" policy in her contract.[22] In September, Baldwin appeared on the cover of Grazia, shot by Yu Tsai.[3]

In 2019, Baldwin was hired to DJ alongside Caroline D'Amore for the Norah restaurant's 3rd anniversary.

Personal life

In 2014, Baldwin was in a relationship with rapper Angel Haze.[26] In 2015, Haze devoted her track "Candlxs" to Baldwin; the cover art depicting Baldwin and Haze was painted by Haze. Several months later Baldwin ended the relationship before checking herself into Malibu's Soba Recovery Center for "emotional trauma".[27] In 2018, she began dating musician Corey Harper.[28]

In 2019, Baldwin alleged in an Instagram story about the Human Life Protection Act that she was a victim of sexual assault. In the story, she said that she is a survivor and that "one day [she] will reveal the true story". She also claimed that at the time, she began to rely on substances, resulting in what she characterized as "sabotaging" her career.[29] In 2022, she expanded on that story on TikTok, saying she was raped as a teenager while she was unconscious.[30] She also wrote that she had an abortion in response to an unrelated incident, "because I know exactly what it felt like to be born to two people who hated each other".[30]
