Blake Lively, her husband, and their kids experience the ’emotional effect’ of Justin Baldoni’s claimed defamation campaign, according to a new court declaration filed by her lawyers.
In December 2024, Lively sued Baldoni, her co-star on It Ends With Us, alleging that he had sexually harassed her and that.
He and his crew had launched a smear campaign against her. Then, claiming slander, Baldoni filed a countersuit against Lively, Ryan Reynolds, and their publicist.
The accusations against them are denied by both actors. In the course of their continuing court battle, dozens more accusations.
Between Lively, 37, and Baldoni, 41, have subsequently come to light. These include alleged text message conversations between Baldoni and Reynolds.
According to a voice message that was released, Baldoni apologized to his co-star, who acknowledged that he had “f****d up.”
Lively’s team has now filed a fresh petition claiming that Baldoni’s alleged activities have left her children “traumatized.”
The former Gossip Girl has been married to Reynolds for 12 years, and the couple has four children together: Betty, 5, James, 10, Inez, 8, and Olin, 2.
“There are days when she has struggled to get out of bed, and she frequently chooses not to venture outside in public,” the amendment states.
“While she has fought to maintain her personal life and business interests, behind closed doors she has suffered from grief, fear, trauma, and extreme anxiety.”
Reynolds, the 48-year-old Deadpool actor, has reportedly “been affected mentally, physically, and professionally by his wife’s and children’s pain.”
The modification also states that: “Worst of all, however, has been the impact on their young children, who have been traumatized and emotionally uprooted.
In ways that have substantially impacted their well-being.” In response to the updated charge, Baldoni’s attorney Bryan Freedman released.
A statement calling the additional accusations “underwhelming.” “Our clients have been transparent in providing receipts, real-time documents and video showing.
A completely different story than what has been manipulated and cherry-picked to the media,” he said to Fox News. “Despite the plaintiff and her husband’s public jokes,
Our clients have taken this action and these matters extremely seriously. Unsubstantial hearsay from anonymous people who are obviously no longer prepared to come forward or publicly back.
Her accusations abounds throughout her lackluster updated lawsuit. The next depositions of individuals who first backed Ms. Lively’s bogus allegations and those.
Who saw her own actions will be instructive because humans lie, not records. “What is truly uncomfortable here is Ms. Lively’s lack of actual evidence.”
The modifications were made a few days after Reynolds, while addressing Saturday Night Live’s 50th festivities over the weekend, made references to their continuing legal battle with Baldoni.
Reynolds participated in a humorous Q&A, marking the famous couple’s first public appearance together since Lively filed the lawsuit last year.
The actor responded, “Great,” when Tina Fey and Amy Poehler inquired how he was feeling. Why? Have you heard anything?
It was quickly assumed that he was referring to their current legal troubles with Baldoni. Baldoni’s attorney criticized Reynolds for the purported.
Remark in light of this. During an episode of Hot Mics with Bill Bush, Freedman said, “I honestly don’t know anyone.
Whose wife has experienced sexual harassment and has joked about that kind of situation.” “I can’t think of anyone who’s done anything like that,” he said. So I was taken aback.
