Jul 11 2018 by Corinne Sullivan

If you've finally recovered from the shock of Hailey Baldwin and Justin Bieber's engagement, you're probably trying to remember why exactly Hailey Baldwin is famous. Sure, the 22-year-old is famous in her own right (have you seen her in a swimsuit?) but she also has a last name that we're sure you recognise. However, there are four Baldwin brothers — who's her daddy? And even though we know Hailey got it from her mama, we bet anything you can't name her. Read on to find out who the newly engaged model calls Mum and Dad.

Stephen Baldwin

Stephen Baldwin is the youngest of the four Baldwin brothers, following older bros Alec, Daniel, and William. Stephen is best known for starring in 1995's The Usual Suspects, a thriller about five criminals who meet at a seemingly random police lineup. He also starred in 1996's unanimously panned comedy Bio-Dome, and he played Barney Rubble in 2000's live-action film, The Flintstones in Viva Rock Vegas. Later on, Baldwin took to reality television, appearing in everything from ABC's Celebrity Mole Hawaiiand Ty Murray's Celebrity Bull Riding Challenge to Donald Trump's Celebrity Apprentice and NBC's I'm a Celebrity . . . Get Me Out of Here!, the last of which he quit mid-season.

Stephen met his wife, Brazilian graphic designer Kennya Deodato, in 1987, and the two have been married since 1990. Their first daughter, Alaia, was born in 1993, and their second daughter, Hailey, was born in 1996. A fun fact: Stephen has a tattoo on his left shoulder with the initials "HM" for Hannah Montana. He'd made a pact with Miley Cyrus that he would be allowed to cameo on the show if he had the initials tattooed on him, but unfortunately, he never got the opportunity.

Kennya Baldwin (née Deodato)

Kennya Baldwin was born in Brazil and is the daughter of legendary Brazilian composer Eumir Deodato. Though she grew up in her father's limelight, she decided to move to New York for school, attending York Preparatory School and later studying graphic design at Parsons School of Design. However, her newly quiet life took a surprising turn when she met her future husband, Stephen Baldwin, on a New York City subway in 1987. The two started to date soon after, and in their three decades together, Kennya has remained impressively obscure despite her celebrity status. She was once even approached by Leonardo DiCaprio at a London bar and asked on a date.

Kennya is purportedly responsible for her husband Stephen's return to faith, as she herself is a devout Christian. They both consider themselves born-again Christians. She and Stephen have remained faithful and romantic even through tough times, such as when Stephen was forced to file for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in 2009 after failing to pay mortgage and income tax. Daughters Alaia and Hailey often refer to their parents' relationship as "couple goals" on social media, as the two represent one of Hollywood's longest and strongest marriages.
