James Gandolfini was laid to rest yesterday and among those in attendance were Alec Baldwin and his pregnant yoga wife Hilaria. Notable because the Daily Mail reports that while the funeral was going on, Hilaria was tweeting. These tweets included soliciting ideas for wedding anniversary presents and promoting her appearance on the Rachel Ray Show.
I'm sure you have some amazing recipes! “@KatieLeeKitchen: @hilariabaldwin @rachael_ray @RachaelRayShow Looks YUMMY!!”

The circle of life is unbelievable–birth, life, death… Please take care of yourselves as life is fragile. Rest in Peace Jimmy

What did you do for your first wedding anniversary? What did you give your partner? Ours is coming up!

Hilaria later claimed that she did not have her cell with her during the funeral.
FYI I don't believe in bringing phones into a funeral and I never did and I never would

Sources say Alec and Hilaria left early because she was feeling “faint” from the heat and that she was tweeting from the car on the way home.
Now in classic Alec Baldwin fashion, he’s fired back at the report the only way he knows how. By promising to put his foot up the writer of the article, George Stark’s, ass in a series of tweets.
After the last tweet, he disabled his Twitter account which is the internet’s version of dropping the mic and exiting the building.
