Since the public announcement on December 21 about Blake Lively’s sexual harassment allegations against Justin Baldoni, her legal team has been facing persistent attacks from him and his legal team. This is in reference to the fact that she had filed the complaint against Baldoni, who was also her co-star and director of a summer release movie titled “It Ends With Us.
On New Year’s Eve, after lodging a complaint, Lively took legal action against Baldoni, also known for his role in Jane the Virgin. Besides filing a lawsuit against him, she also filed suits against Wayfarer Studios, Baldoni’s production company, as well as his publicists, Melissa Nathan and Jennifer Abel.
Baldoni has rejected all claims brought forth in the lawsuit, which closely resemble the actress’s previous allegations, and has filed a lawsuit against The New York Times for a sum of $250 million, claiming they published Lively’s accusations without proper justification.
On Monday, January 6th, attorneys for the actress communicated to People magazine that her “substantial allegations of sexual misconduct and reprisal” have solid supporting evidence.
According to the lawyers’ statement, as reported by the outlet, this is not a disagreement stemming from artistic differences or a matter of he-said-she-said. Instead, they claim, as stated in Ms. Lively’s complaint and what they will demonstrate in court, Wayfarer Studios and their associates have acted illegally by retaliating astroturfing against Ms. Lively for taking steps to ensure safety on a film set. Furthermore, they allege that Wayfarer’s response to the lawsuit has been to escalate their attacks against Ms. Lively since she filed it.
The statement suggests that Baldoni and his team have been using a common strategy of shifting blame onto the victim as a diversion from the actor’s misconduct, but they plan to substantiate their client’s allegations in a federal court setting.
In response to a lawsuit against him by The New York Times, Baldoni’s lawyer, Bryan Freedman, declared on January 2nd that the actor was indeed intending to file a lawsuit against Lively. He stated this with confidence, citing every text message exchanged between them as potential evidence supporting his version of events and proving his client’s innocence.
I’m all about transparency, so I advocate for making those documents publicly available. I believe it’s crucial that decisions are made with solid evidence, and in this case, that evidence comes from receipts.
Meanwhile, Times asserts that their story was thoroughly and cautiously crafted, having been compiled from extensive reviews of numerous original records, which they’ve accurately cited and extensively quoted within the article titled, “We Can Silence Anyone: Unmasking the Hollywood Defamation Apparatus.
