The feud between Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni continues to intensify, with Hollywood divided over the allegations made by Lively against Baldoni and his team. While the legal process unfolds, a significant show of support for Lively has come from her Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants co-stars—America Ferrera, Amber Tamblyn, and Alexis Bledel. The trio recently released a joint statement on Instagram expressing their full solidarity with Lively.
In their statement, Ferrera, Tamblyn, and Bledel highlighted their admiration for Lively’s bravery during the filming of It Ends With Us, particularly her efforts to ensure a safe working environment for herself and her colleagues. The co-stars expressed their shock and disgust upon learning about Baldoni’s alleged efforts to discredit Lively and tarnish her reputation. They criticized Baldoni’s team for exploiting sensitive topics like domestic violence to silence Lively after she reportedly raised concerns about harassment on set.
The controversy gained momentum after Lively’s legal complaint was made public, detailing her experiences with Baldoni and the production team. According to the complaint, Lively had requested a meeting to address allegations of sexual harassment and inappropriate behavior by Baldoni and other key individuals on set. This meeting reportedly resulted in an agreement on proper conduct moving forward, but soon after, Lively faced backlash when she made comments about a domestic abuse storyline, which some felt were inappropriate. Her complaint claims that Baldoni and his team retaliated by orchestrating a media campaign to damage her reputation and intimidate her into silence.
Lively’s allegations have sparked further division, with her Sisterhood friends expressing their outrage at what they see as a coordinated effort to undermine Lively’s voice and prevent her from speaking out. The trio reflected on the wider issue of women, regardless of their status or resources, facing retaliation when they stand up for their rights in the workplace.
While Baldoni’s team has denied the allegations, labeling them as false and an attempt to repair Lively’s reputation, the public support from Ferrera, Tamblyn, and Bledel has added to the growing pressure on Baldoni and his camp. As the legal battle moves forward, it remains to be seen how the truth will unfold, but Lively’s supporters are rallying behind her in a significant way.
