Justin Baldoni has finally spoken out in an interview about the turmoil in his personal and professional life as he navigates a heated lawsuit with actress Blake Lively.
In a newly surfaced interview, Justin Baldoni appears deeply emotional, wiping away tears as he describes the immense anxiety he has endured over the past year. The interview was recorded in November, weeks before Lively filed a lawsuit accusing Justin Baldoni of sexual harassment and launching a smear campaign against her.
‘I Had Anxiety’: Baldoni’s Emotional Interview
During his appearance on the Gent’s Talk podcast, Baldoni opened up about his struggles, sharing that he had sent a text message earlier that day and immediately felt anxious about it. When the host, Samir Mourani, asked why, Baldoni hesitated before saying, “I haven’t talked about this yet,” before appearing visibly emotional. The interview, set to air on February 10, is already gaining traction online as fans speculate about the deeper context behind his statements.
Blake Lively’s Lawsuit and the Feud That Shook Hollywood
The tension between Baldoni and Lively has been simmering for months. In January, Lively officially filed a lawsuit against Baldoni, alleging inappropriate behavior on the set of their film It Ends With Us. Reports suggest that the two co-stars, who once seemed to have a professional working relationship, began promoting the film separately amid rumors of behind-the-scenes clashes.
Baldoni’s Defense: A Text Message from Co-Star Isabela Ferrer
In an effort to counter the allegations, Baldoni has submitted a text message from Isabela Ferrer, his co-star who played a younger version of Blake Lively’s character in the film. The message, sent on July 11, 2023, describes Baldoni as a “wonderful, smart, and sincere director” and praises him for creating a “comfortable, safe space” during filming.
Ryan Reynolds and Hollywood’s Reaction
Adding fuel to the fire, Baldoni claims that Lively’s husband, Ryan Reynolds, played a role in his ostracization. Both Reynolds and Lively unfollowed Baldoni on social media, and even Colleen Hoover, the author of the book on which the film is based, distanced herself from him. Baldoni has described this treatment as an intentional effort by Lively to discredit him in Hollywood.
The Fallout and What Comes Next
With the legal battle intensifying, both actors are expected to face more scrutiny in the coming weeks. Fans and industry insiders are divided, with some rallying behind Lively while others support Baldoni. As the lawsuit unfolds, all eyes will be on their upcoming court appearances and public statements.
