Blake Lively Sues Justin Baldoni Over 'It Ends With Us' Sexual Harassment and Smear Campaign
Dec 22, 2024, 12:20 PM
Blake Lively has filed a lawsuit against her 'It Ends With Us' co-star and director, Justin Baldoni, alleging sexual harassment and a coordinated smear campaign aimed at damaging her reputation. Lively claims that after she and her husband Ryan Reynolds raised concerns about Baldoni's behavior on set, which included showing her nude videos and images of women, discussing his alleged previous pornography addiction, and making sexual comments, Baldoni's team launched a multi-tiered plan to discredit her. The lawsuit includes text messages and emails that purportedly show Baldoni and his public relations team, including Jennifer Abel and Melissa Nathan, discussing strategies to plant negative stories about Lively in the media and on social media platforms like Reddit, TikTok, and Instagram. Lively's legal action also references a document from Baldoni's crisis management team that suggested using the example of Hailey Bieber's public image issues as a model for their campaign against her. Lively hopes her lawsuit will expose these retaliatory tactics and protect others from similar targeting.
