20 Shocking Allegations From Blake Lively’s 80-Page Complaint Against Justin Baldoni

Blake Lively, who played Lily Bloom in Justin Baldoni’s It Ends With Us, has accused her co-star Baldoni of sexual misconduct in an 80-page complaint. Her complaint against Baldoni, and Jamey Heath, the CEO of Baldoni’s production studio Wayfarer, accuses the two men of repeated sexual harassment and other disturbing behaviour on the set of It Ends With Us.

Not only Blake Lively, other crew members too fell prey to Justin Baldoni’s misconduct and had also spoken up.

Lively had raised objection to Baldoni and Heath making “sexually inappropriate jokes”, in addition to a plethora of other accusations. The studio agreed to have an intimacy coordinator on board and not retaliate against Lively.

A meeting was held on January 4 this year, where the following code of conduct was decided, to allow a safe and protected environment during the shoot of It Ends With Us.

Among the more shocking of allegations that Blake Lively had in her 80-page complaint are the following:

1. Justin Baldoni and Jamey Heath made lewd, sexual comments, and showed Blake Lively nude images of other women, including Heath’s wife.
2. Baldoni and Heath spoke about their previous “pornography addiction” and Blake Lively’s lack of pornography consumption to her and to other crew members.
3. They also discussed with Blake and her employees about their personal experiences with sex, including as it relates to spouses or others.
4. Mention to BL or her employees of personal times that physical consent was not given in sexual acts, as either the abuser or the abused.
5. The accused described Blake’s genitalia to her.
6. They also made jokes and disparaging comments at Lively’s expense. 
7. Baldoni also allegedly called up Lively’s trainer to ask about her weight.
8. Baldoni, on set, claimed to “speak to” Lively’s recently dead father.
9. Baldoni pressed for Lively to disclose her religious beliefs, and shared his.
10. BL and/or her infant were exposed to COVID and not informed.
11. No intimacy coordinator was on set in scenes with Baldoni.
12. There was personal, physical touching of, and sexual comments by, Baldoni and Heath to Blake Lively and her employees, as well as the female cast or crew without their express consent.
13. Baldoni improvised kissing scenes, bit and sucked Lively’s lip without her consent. In addition, he also had several intimate conversations with Blake as Baldoni, and not Ryle Kincaid, his on-screen character.
14. Blake had no representative on set or with a monitor during scenes involving nudity, sexual activity, or violence with Baldoni.
15. Baldoni called his friend to play the doctor who assists Lively in childbirth on set of the movie, without her knowledge or consent. “Actors participating with BL in intimate scenes, involving her being in any state of nudity or simulated nudity must be classified as active, working actors, not “friends” of the director or producers, and must be pre-approved by BL,” reads Lively’s terms.
16. Nude scenes were filmed without a SAG-compliant nudity rider in place. “No more filming of any BL nudity without a fully-executed, SAG-compliant nudity rider in place. Any such footage already shot without this rider in place and indirect violation of SAG requirements may not be used without BL’s and her legal representatives prior, written consent,” reads her complaint.
17. Scenes involving nudity and simulated sex weren’t conducted in accordance with the SAG-approved nudity rider.
18. There was no intimacy coordinator on set for scenes involving nudity and/or simulated sex or have a monitor to ensure compliance.
19. Monitors were viewed and were accessible on set, as well as remotely, during closed set scenes without Blake’s approval.
20. Baldoni walked into Lively’s trailer when she was breastfeeding. On another occasion, Heath forced himself into Lively’s trailer while she was in a state of undress.

Justin Baldoni had also hired a crisis management team to “orchestrate” a “smear campaign” against Blake Lively, claims the complaint.

Blake Lively’s complaint against Justin Baldoni got several Hollywood big wigs rallying behind the actress. Meanwhile, Baldoni was also dropped by his agency.
