Kobe Bryant's sudden death encouraged Ireland Baldwin to view her relationship with her once-estranged famous father in a new light.

Alec Baldwin and Kim Basinger's 24-year-old daughter revealed in a new interview that she has decided to leave the bad blood between her and her father in the past.

"[In light] of recent events that have happened within the last couple of weeks, like with Kobe, it's like, 'What's the f--king point of arguing?'" Ireland told Entertainment Tonight. "Like, there's no point. So let's all just get over it and hug that person you love."

Ireland and Alec's rocky relationship came to a historic halt in 2007 after the actor, now 61, left Ireland a voicemail calling her a "rude, thoughtless, little pig." The infamous call led to the father-daughter duo being estranged for many years.

Ireland explained that the devastating news of Bryant's death, as well as his daughter Gianna, 13, and seven others last month in an helicopter crash served as a reminder to appreciate the ones you love.

"You never know what's going to happen to somebody and it all comes down to love," Ireland continued to the outlet. "Nothing else matters."

Ireland added that she and Alec do "have fun" together despite distance still being between them.

Ireland also called Alec's wife, Hilaria, "amazing," in addition to their "amazing" brood of kids.

Months ago, Hilaria bravely revealed that she suffered a miscarriage.
