Alec Baldwin fans have criticised what was meant to be a sweet post by the actor after he praised all kids bar one.

The Hollywood star listed the "seven reasons" which have kept him going over a difficult year.

However, while his youngest kids had their own special image on his Instagram post, his eldest child Ireland Baldwin was nowhere to be seen.

Instead, photos of Carmen, 9, Rafael, 7, Leonardo, 6, Romeo, 4, Eduardo, 2, Lucia, 2, and Ilaria, 7 months, were featured.

Alec had written: "Seven reasons to carry on during some tough times. I’m not gonna lie, without my family, I don’t know what my life would be."

But his sweet words were quickly questioned in the comments section, with one user questioning: "Don’t you have 8 children?"

A second sarcastically wrote: "I'm sure your oldest is happy you left her out," while a third said: "Why don’t you ever include you oldest child ?"

A fourth joked: "Got so many you forgot one," alongside a rolling eyes emoji and another slammed: "Sorry...but it's bad not to include all your children."

But Alec quickly tried to rectify his mistake and made a post solely for Ireland, who is the daughter of Kim Basinger.

He penned: "We forgot Billy Preston! This one, the first one, is about to make me a grandfather. Oy."

The actor shared a close-up black-and-white image of his actress daughter who is currently pregnant with her first child.

Ireland and her boyfriend RAC have revealed they plan to name their child Holland.

She is yet to comment on her dad's apparent mishap, but his followers seemed divided on the new post.

One user wrote: "Leave him alone, he always includes her..it's rare, when mentioning their clan that they don't mention her. Coming from an Irish American family with six kids, heck, forgetting a name???! no biggie!!!"

Another gushed: "She deserves her own post."

Michelle Pfeiffer even got in on the commenting action by simply sharing two red love heart emojis.

However, another user wasn't as sympathetic and bluntly wrote: "Honestly. #dobetter"

A second agreed, saying: "She is finally included. This should’ve been the 1st pic of all your children. She is as beautiful as her mother."
