Justin Baldoni's trove of WhatsApps and videos he believes will torpedo Blake Lively's career for good: The unedited footage, full exchanges and 'pumping' message revealed by ALISON BOSHOFF
Blake Lively has been on the receiving end of a jolting lesson in Newton's Third Law of late, which holds that every action has an equal and opposite reaction.
Her move to incinerate the reputation and career of Justin Baldoni, her co-star in hit film It Ends With Us, via a civil complaint filed just before Christmas accusing him of sexual harassment on set, has led to a media storm which has engulfed her – and Reynolds – in painful ways which they clearly never saw coming. The website will also include full unedited WhatsApp, text and email exchanges between Lively and Baldoni, such as a message where she invites him to come and run through lines in her trailer, saying she was ‘pumping’ (expressing breast milk – she’d not long had her fourth child at the time of filming). The article, which is now subject to a libel complaint from Baldoni’s team, alleged that his PRs Melissa Nathan and Jen Abel conspired to create a global smear campaign against Lively at the time of the film’s premiere, when the actress was criticised for being tone deaf in using a movie about domestic violence to promote her alcohol brands and for telling viewers to ‘grab your florals’ to watch it.
