Blake Lively has asked for additional protections in her ongoing legal battle with director Justin Baldoni, citing violent and threatening communications she received after speaking out against him.
Lively recently filed an amended complaint against Baldoni, which provides new evidence and corroborates her original claims. Her lawyers claim that Baldoni’s behavior on set was unacceptable and included profane language, sexist comments, and threats to the actress and her loved ones.
The actress has asked for a stronger protective order to shield herself and her family from further harassment. The proposed order includes an “Attorney’s Eyes Only” category for highly confidential and sensitive information.
Lively’s lawyers argue that she and others who publicly supported her have received violent, profane, sexist, and threatening communications. They claim that the court should adopt a stronger protective order to protect Lively and her loved ones from further harm.
The lawsuit has sparked a heated response from Baldoni and his team. His lawyer argues that Lively’s complaint lacks concrete evidence and suggests that she is trying to distract from her own behavior. The situation remains ongoing, with both sides continuing to exchange legal filings and statements.
