AceShowbiz - Blake Lively's legal clash with "It Ends With Us" director and co-star Justin Baldoni has escalated into a complex battle of accusations. The dispute has drawn in multiple voices, including former co-stars and crew members, shedding new light on this high-profile case.
The conflict began when Lively, 37, accused Baldoni, 41, of sexual harassment in a December lawsuit. Baldoni countered with a staggering $400 million defamation suit, further entangling the lives of Lively and her husband, Ryan Reynolds.
Storyboard artist Talia Spencer has staunchly defended Baldoni during her appearance on "60 Minutes Australia". She stated, "I feel like maybe Blake smelled his kindness, mistook it for weakness, and tried to take advantage and take power." Spencer added, "I just find it hard to believe the allegations, to be honest."
Co-star Adam Mondschein also spoke out, disputing Lively's claim that his role as her OBGYN in a birthing scene was invasive and humiliating.
"Her costume included a full hospital gown, black shorts and torso-covering prosthetic to make her appear pregnant in addition to whatever personal garments she chose," said Mondschein. He expressed willingness to testify, asserting that "nothing unusual or improper occurred."
In his lawsuit, Baldoni claimed that Lively and Reynolds tried to "ruin the reputations and careers of the Wayfarer parties." Besides defamation, he accused the couple of attempting to seize control of the film.
Meanwhile, Lively's team described Baldoni's actions as "another chapter in the abuser playbook," aiming to "shift the narrative to Ms. Lively by falsely claiming that she seized creative control and alienated the cast from Mr. Baldoni."
Both parties are now preparing for a March 2026 trial.
