Ireland added, “ This guy has been digging up old tweets from Hilaria’s high school classmates, and they’re all saying one thing about her, it’s really nice, when they reflect on their experience with her. And that’s because she’s so cute, she’s a good person. And she is someone who always cares about respecting my relationship with my father.
