Justin Baldoni Sues His Former Publicist Stephanie Jones, Alleging She ‘Maliciously’ Leaked Texts That Sparked Legal Battle With Blake Lively
'It Ends With Us' star Justin Baldoni sues former publicist Stephanie Jones, alleging she leaked texts that led to Blake Lively legal battle.
“It is undeniable that Stephanie Jones initiated this catastrophic sequence of events by violating the most basic of privacy rights, as well as any remaining trust her clients held,” Baldoni’s attorney Bryan Freedman said in a statement to Variety. The latest lawsuit portrays Jones as growing increasingly paranoid and rattled by negative press about her in outlets like Puck and Business Insider as well as on an anonymous website that detailed her alleged treatment of employees and clients. That kicked off a legal back and forth that now involves three celebrities (Reynolds, the biggest of the three, Lively and Baldoni) four publicists (Jones, Nathan, Abel and Sloane) as well as two “It Ends With Us” producers (Jamey Heath and Steve Sarowitz) and a social media guru in Texas (Jed Harris).
