Blake Lively’s lawyers denounced ‘more attacks’ from Justin Baldoni and his ‘associates’ in a statement on Monday, January 6
Blake Lively’s lawyers are denouncing “more attacks” from Justin Baldoni and his team.
On New Year’s Eve, Lively, 37, filed a lawsuit against Baldoni, 40, in a New York federal court, mirroring her earlier claims that were submitted with the California Civil Rights Department. In addition to Baldoni, Lively is suing publicists Melissa Nathan and Jennifer Abel, as well as Wayfarer Studios, Baldoni’s production company.
“This is not a ‘feud’ arising from ‘creative differences’ or a ‘he said/she said’ situation,” the lawyers’ statement read, per the outlet. “As alleged in Ms. Lively’s complaint, and as we will prove in litigation, Wayfarer and its associates engaged in unlawful, retaliatory astroturfing against Ms. Lively for simply trying to protect herself and others on a film set. And their response to the lawsuit has been to launch more attacks against Ms. Lively since her filing.
Lively's team continued, “Another classic tactic is to reverse the victim and offender, and suggest that the offender is actually the victim. These concepts normalize and trivialize allegations of serious misconduct.'
