The Rust actor, 66, and his wife, 40, were seen sitting in the bleachers and watching a match on the first day of the championships at Flushing Meadows in New York City.

‘Happy 11th birthday to our Carmen Gabriela….we are so lucky to be your parents. Thank you for being our light, for making us laugh….and for being you,’ Hilaria gushed in her caption.
Alec reposted the photo and wrote: ’11!!! Love you, Carmencita…’
For the photo, Hilaria looked radiant in a black turtleneck top as she wrapped an arm around her eldest daughter.
Her husband of 12-plus years donned a blue dress shirt, and his salt-and-pepper hair pushed back off his face.
As for Carmen, the 11-year-old looked darling with her brunette hair worn down and what appeared to be mascara on her eyelashes.
One comment stated that Carmen is ‘seriously way too young to be wearing makeup.’
‘Full makeup at 11,’ one Instagram user wrote. ‘Good luck with that’

Back in June, a photo of Carmen wearing mascara and glossy lipstick that Alec posted in celebration of Father’s Day sparked backlash.

Earlier this year in February, Hilaria was mom-shamed for allowing Carmen to wear full-face makeup in a photo uploaded to her own Instagram page.
She typed in the caption: ‘Date night with my first baby…she did both our makeup. How quickly they get big and how amazing it is to get to be inspired by them.’
‘Carmen, you are such a special soul…just like your siblings…all unique and equally incredible,’ the media personality concluded.
Once again, social media users flocked to the comment section, with one adding, ‘Isn’t she too young for makeup?’
Another wrote, ‘Why do these celebrities make their children look so grown. Why all that makeup??’ while one shared, ‘She is a child. Please!’
