Justin Baldoni Sued by Former Publicist Amid Blake Lively Scandal


Justin Baldoni's ex-publicist, Steph Jones, sued him and others on Tuesday, alleging she has been falsely blamed amid the Blake Lively fiasco.

Jones also sued Abel and publicist Melissa Nathan, accusing them of implementing the smear campaign against Lively behind her back and without her knowledge. Jones’ suit alleges that Abel conspired for months to leave her company and to “steal” her clients and trash her reputation in the industry. Among other things, the suit alleges that Abel and Nathan planted negative stories about Jones in the press, including an article in Business Insider that was published last summer.
