Amber Heard on Lively-Baldoni
Blake Lively has sued Justin Baldoni, her director and co-star on It Ends With Us, for sexual harassment, as we previously reported.
Before the movie’s premiere, there were constant rumors of animosity on the Colleen Hoover adaptation’s set.Blake is now claiming that things were far worse than they were previously described.
An Alleged Campaign of Smears
One of Lively’s accusations is that Baldoni engaged a public relations firm to plan a “smear campaign” aimed at ruining her reputation and career.
During his defamation trial against his ex-wife Amber Heard, Johnny Depp collaborated with the same firm that Baldoni reportedly hired to disparage Blake.
Heard is now talking about the similarities between her experience and Lively’s current predicament.
The Experience of Amber
Heard stated in a statement to NBC News on Monday that social media is the perfect example of the old adage, “A falsehood travels halfway around the world before truth can have its boots on.”
“I witnessed this directly and up close. It is both destructive and scary.
The 2022 trial turned into the most media spectacle of the year as Depp prevailed in his lawsuit against Heard.
Amber has temporarily removed herself from the spotlight and now leads a tranquil life in Spain. She revealed that she is now expecting her second kid earlier this month.
The upcoming phase of Blake and Justin’s conflict is expected to be the most chaotic yet.
According to Lively, Baldoni collaborated with a crisis management company during the film’s marketing campaign to “help shift the narrative” of their on-set conflict by using “social manipulation.”
In a statement released over the weekend, Baldoni described the actress’ filing as “shameful” and “categorically untrue” (via Page Six).
Needless to say, a peaceful, out-of-court settlement appears doubtful, and it sounds like both parties are getting ready for a bitter legal struggle.
As more details on this evolving story become available, we will provide them.
