The yoga instructor went on explain how grateful she is for her followers and noted it had been a "challenging year" for her and so many others.

Knowing you were there — such comfort. Yes, my children and my husband, my family and close friends have been invaluable … but YOU, I don’t get to express this face to face, due to the nature of social media and how far we all are … I SO want you to know and take in how grateful I am every day for you. I miss our chats and the safety net of our community."
Hilaria's post about her "challenging year" comes as Baldwin deals with the ongoing investigation into the fatal shooting of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on the set of his film "Rust" on Oct. 21.

The actor has been targeted with several lawsuits since the shooting.

"I brought [Alec] up here because we have to mourn Halyna’s death," she told the outlet. "Alec had a really traumatic thing happen, and I am trying to limit the PTSD."
"You look at what happens to soldiers and police officers when something like this happens, it’s traumatic. We just came up here for quiet."
