Justin Baldoni’s Camp Thinks Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds’ Gag Order Attempt Is ‘Unbelievable’ and ‘Grossly Unfair’

by

As a lifestyle expert, I’d rephrase it like this: Recently, Justin Baldoni’s attorney, Bryan Freedman, has been under scrutiny due to his handling of unedited footage from “It Ends With Us.” Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds have expressed concerns about improper conduct in the release of these materials. To address this issue, they’ve requested a gag order, which would limit what Freedman can discuss publicly regarding this matter. Now, for the first time since the filing of the request, Baldoni’s camp has responded to these developments.

According to my sources, the director of Five Feet Apart felt strongly that it was unjust for the couple to ask the court to stop their lawyer from speaking with the press following the publication of sexual harassment accusations against them in the New York Times.

Based on reports, the actor from Jane The Virgin appears to be upset about their “hard-to-believe” action directed towards his lawyer. This lawyer was simply protecting his client against the accusations of a “supposed takedown campaign” by the Green Lantern actress.

Via the protective order, Lively and Reynolds aimed to prevent Freedman from disclosing case-related documents to the media. The letter submitted to Judge Lewis J. Liman expressed concerns that Freedman’s statements about the harassment case could potentially bias the jury pool before it reached court.

According to various news sources, Lively’s lawyer repeatedly advised Freedman to behave professionally and adhere to the guidelines of federal court proceedings. However, instead of doing so, Freedman continued to grant interviews, appear on podcasts, disclose confidential information, and make provocative written statements in support of his client.

It has been asserted that, starting from when the ex-Gossip Girl cast member filed a lawsuit, he has consistently given interviews to Hollywood press and tabloid media “daily.” More recently, he shared a 10-minute video featuring Blake Lively and Stefanie Baldoni on the sets of their movie.

In the scene onscreen, my partner and I were spotted engaging in a leisurely dance, perhaps ad-libbing some lines. The attorney for Lively clarified the situation to Page Six, stating that Baldoni was attempting to kiss me, touching my forehead, flicking my lips with his thumb, caressing me, complimenting my scent, and conversing with me off-script.

It was claimed that the director spontaneously created the entire scene without prior conversation or approval, and also lacked an intimacy coach on set. Additionally, they suggested that Freedman inappropriately tried to influence public opinion by leaking the evidence to the media instead of presenting it in a court of law.
