Beyond Blake Lively, Justin Baldoni is now facing fresh verbal abuse allegations from an unnamed individual. According to a sworn declaration, this person alleges repeated negative interactions with Baldoni and his associates, including being subjected to verbal abuse. The accuser reportedly requested that Baldoni be excluded from marketing or PR efforts for a separate project (unrelated to It Ends with Us) and is expected to testify in the upcoming Lively v. Wayfarer Studios trial. Baldoni’s $400 million countersuit against Lively and Ryan Reynolds, along with a separate defamation suit against The New York Times, were both dismissed earlier this year but the March 2026 trial that Lively filed is still on track.
