Blake Lively accuses Justin Baldoni of making other women feel 'discomfort' on set in bombshell new legal filing

In the ongoing legal dispute between Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni, Lively has escalated the situation by stating that she was not the sole woman who felt uneasy while working on the set of It Ends With Us.

A revised version of her legal claim was submitted to the New York federal court, indicating that there is evidence supporting her initial accusations. A representative for the 37-year-old actress reported that ‘other women shared their discomfort with Blake.’

DailyMail.com has reached out to representatives for Baldoni and Lively for comment. 

Lively had previously sued Baldoni for sexual harassment in December. Baldoni was both her co-star and director in the popular romantic film It Ends With Us.

Baldoni followed up by launching a $400 million defamation lawsuit against Lively, her publicist and her husband, Ryan Reynolds.

He also filed a $250 million libel lawsuit against the New York Times for its reporting on Lively’s allegations.

A recently filed amended version of her complaint alleges that she has corroboration of her original claims, and a spokesperson for the actress claims 'other women confided in Blake about their discomfort,' according to People; Baldoni is pictured December 4 in LA

According to Lively’s attorneys Esra Hudson and Mike Gottlieb, the amended complaint ‘provides significant additional evidence and corroboration of her original claims.’

They add that it ‘includes previously undisclosed communications’ Lively had with Sony Pictures, Baldoni’s production company Wayfarer Studios and ‘numerous other witnesses.’

The new version of the complaint reportedly includes an added defamation claim against Baldoni that was not part of the initial document, which was filed on New Year’s Eve.

According to Hudson and Gottlieb, Lively is suing for defamation ‘based on the repeated false statements the defendants have made about Ms. Lively since she filed her original complaint…’

She has also expanded her complaint to add Jed Wallace and his Texas-based crisis PR firm Street Relations, Inc., as a defendant.

Wallace, who has denied playing any part in a smear campaign against the Gossip Girl star, previously filed a $7 million lawsuit against her in response to Lively’s allegation in her initial complaint that his firm ‘weaponized a digital army’ against her on behalf of Baldoni. 

She had requested Wallace be deposed in her initial complaint, though he revealed in his subsequent lawsuit earlier this month that the request had been rescinded.

Lively’s new filing appears to claim that others on the set of It Ends With Us can corroborate her claims.

Lively's revised complaint adds a defamation claim against Baldoni for 'repeated false statements ... about Ms. Lively since she filed her original complaint...' according to her attorneys; Baldoni and Lively seen on It Ends With Us set in New Jersey in January 2024

It claims Baldoni's 'false narrative crumbles' because Lively 'was not alone in complaining about Mr. Baldoni...' and that she 'raised her concerns contemporaneously as they arose,' instead of waiting until shortly before the film was released; still from It Ends With Us

It claims that Baldoni and his co-defendants’ ‘false narrative crumbles under the indisputable truth’ that the actress ‘was not alone in complaining about Mr. Baldoni…’

The filing also tries to establish that she ‘raised her concerns contemporaneously as they arose in 2023, not in connection with some imagined power play for control of the film in 2024.’

According to a spokesperson for Lively, the amended filing ‘details the corroboration that backs up Blake’s original sexual harassment and retaliation concerns.’

They allege that the document proves that ‘other women confided in Blake about their discomfort and fear of coming forward, and their concern about the current public vitriol.’

Despite the escalating legal battle between the two parties, there’s no end in sight for Lively or Baldoni.

Last month, a judge scheduled a trial date for their lawsuits in March of 2026, and both parties have already decided to skip any attempt at mediation. 

Lively and Reynolds recently made light of the situation when they returned to the spotlight at the SNL50 anniversary special on Sunday.

In one segment featuring questions from the star-studded audience, Reynolds alluded to the dueling lawsuits.

Tina Fey and Amy Poehler set off the exchange by calling on it and asking, ‘How’s it going?’

‘Great. Why, what have you heard?’ the Deadpool star responded nervously while clasping his hands together.

Lively then looked up at him with a painfully over-the-top expression of concern, before relaxing into her normal smile.

Insiders later told DailyMail.com that some attendees of the SNL anniversary special were ‘apprehensive’ about chatting with the A-list couple.

‘Some producers were concerned that the show was being used to “endorse” Blake and Ryan because they seem desperate to prove that they’re still in with the Hollywood crowd,’ the insider continued.

‘Their team worked with SNL to create the joke but the truth is, people there weren’t really feeling it. To many it felt like cheap damage control. But it was included as the network knew the appearance would grab ratings and make headlines.’

They continued: ‘Some people thought it was weird that they were so eager to crack jokes about it because the accusations are serious. It felt like Ryan was desperate to stick with the funny guy act which was almost at the expense of Blake. She seemed on edge backstage.’

Baldoni’s attorney Bryan Freedman later slammed the joke, despite the fact that it never explicitly referenced the Jane The Virgin actor.

‘I’m unaware of anybody, frankly, whose wife has been sexually harassed and has made jokes about that type of situation,’ he said on an appearance on Hot Mics with Billy Bush.

‘I can’t think of anyone who’s done anything like that. So it surprised me.’

Earlier this month, Lively’s legal team sent subpoenas to the cell carriers to produce ‘receipts for her legal battle against Baldoni.

‘Ms. Lively has initiated discovery that will expose the people, tactics, and methods that have worked to “destroy” and “bury” her reputation and family over the past year,’ her attorneys Hudson and Gottlieb told Deadline.

‘We will now receive all of the “receipts” that, unsurprisingly, are nowhere to be found on Mr. Freedman’s website, and like Ms. Lively, those “receipts” will have their day in court,’ they added, referencing Freedman’s allegation that Baldoni’s team had ‘receipts’ backing up his claim that Lively had been a bully on the set of It Ends With Us.

Baldoni’s legal team later said the subpoenas went ‘flagrantly overboard’ in a letter to US District Judge Lewis J. Liman.

‘If they have so many receipts why are they so afraid to produce them,’ Lively’s attorneys responded in a statement to People.
