Blake Lively has accused her “It Ends With Us” director and co-star Justin Baldoni of sexual harassment. In a bombshell filing, the actress alleges that Baldoni attempted to mount a smear campaign against her and claims his behavior caused her and her family “severe emotional distress” (per a legal complaint obtained by the New York Times). Bryan Freedman, a lawyer for Baldoni and his production company Wayfarer Studios, fired back at Lively’s complaint in a statement to Variety. He called the suit “shameful” and full of “categorically false accusations.”
According to the complaint lodged with the California Civil Rights department, a meeting was held during the production of “It Ends With Us” to address Lively’s claims and her demands for working on the film. Lively’s husband, Ryan Reynolds, was reportedly in attendance at the meeting. Some of the demands addressed allegedly included “no more showing nude videos or images of women to Blake, no more mention of Baldoni’s alleged previous ‘pornography addiction,’ no more discussions about sexual conquests in front of Blake and others, no further mentions of cast and crew’s genitalia, no more inquiries about Blake’s weight, and no further mention of Blake’s dead father.”
