"Life's too short not to have fun with what you wear."
~ Ireland Baldwin
How tall is Supermodel Ireland Baldwin? Too tall -- according to some (not to us obviously). She is a really big woman who is a lot taller than even the average male from the United States -- and could become something of an amazon if she worked out a bit.
But the question is where did she get her height from? Her dad Alec Baldwin is 5'11½" (more like 5'11" now) and her mom Kim Basinger was never over 5'7".
Genes work in mysterious ways though. Perhaps she inherited some deeply buried height genes from her father and become the big girl she is. At at least two of her uncle are pretty tall as well -- Daniel Baldwin and William Baldwin (both around 6'2").
Ireland Baldwin once claimed to be six feet two inches tall. But before you jump to any conclusions, here is how she went about it on dad Alec Baldwin's 'One Night Only' Roast: "I'm here tonight for something very important, I'm here to roast this big old ham I call my father. Speaking of pig, some of you may remember me as that thoughtless little pig you read about. That was a decade ago and my dad and I are in a much better place now, he would never say something like that because I'm six-two and I would kick his ass."
But Ms. Baldwin has claimed to be six feet tall as well. After taking a look at her and comparing her height to that of Gigi Hadid (5'9½"), Taylor Swift (5'9½"), Alec Baldwin (5'11½"), Karlie Kloss (6'1½"), and some more such interesting people, we think that Ms. Baldwin is a bit over six feet tall.
The real height of Ireland Baldwin is
6'½" or 184 cm
