Justin Baldoni now sued by ex-publicist amid legal battle with It Ends With Us co-star Blake Lively


Lively sued Baldoni this month, accusing him of sexually harassing her and fostering a toxic work environment on the set of their movie It Ends With Us. He has staunchly denied the allegations.

Late last summer, Lively repeatedly went viral online as social media users slammed her 'mean girl' behavior in interviews, a trend she now insists was the result of a campaign of 'astroturfing' waged by Baldoni's PR team. In her lawsuit, Jones says Abel plotted to poach clients from her and to damage her reputation in the PR business - and even allegedly egged on 'almost half of Jonesworks's employees' to take jobs elsewhere, as a result of which two people supposedly did leave the company 'to work for competitors.' Since news of Lively's lawsuit broke on Saturday, Baldoni's career has imploded, as he was dropped by his agency William Morris Endeavor and his podcast co-host Liz Plank announced she was quitting the show.
