Blake Livelyβs Sister Defends Her After Justin Baldoni Allegations
America Ferrera, Alexis Bledel and Amber Tamblyn Support Blake Lively
Blake Livelyβs sisterhood has her back.
On Sunday, December 22, the actressβ Sisterhood of Traveling Pants costars, America Ferrera, Amber Tamblyn and Alexis Bledel, released a statement in support of the star amid her lawsuit against Justin Baldoni.
βAs Blakeβs friends and sisters for over twenty years, we stand with her in solidarity as she fights back against the reported campaign waged to destroy her reputation,β the trio wrote in a joint statement shared via Instagram after Lively accused Baldoni, 40, of sexual harassment on the set of It Ends With Us, as well as orchestrating a smear campaign against her.
The actresses continued, βThroughout the filming of It Ends with Us, we saw her summon the courage to ask for a safe workplace for herself and colleagues on set, and we are appalled to read the evidence of a premeditated and vindictive effort that ensued to discredit her voice. Most upsetting is the unabashed exploitation of domestic violence survivorsβ stories to silence a woman who asked for safety. The hypocrisy is astounding.β
Breaking Down Blake Livelyβs Accusations Against Justin Baldoni
βWe are struck by the reality that even if a woman is as strong, celebrated, and resourced as our friend Blake, she can face forceful retaliation for daring to ask for a safe working environment,β the trio said. βWe are inspired by our sisterβs courage to stand up for herself and others.β
The statement concluded, βFor anyone seeking more information or engaging in this important conversation online, please read the full legal complaint in the investigative reporting by Megan Twohey, Mike McIntire, and Julie Tate for the New York Times.β
Lively, 37, starred alongside Ferrera, 40, Tamblyn, 41, and Bledel, 43, in 2005βs The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants and its 2008 sequel amid her rise to stardom on Gossip Girl.
Tamblyn shared a personal note via her Instagram Stories on Sunday, saying she was a βconfidantβ to Lively amid the alleged on-set struggles she experienced while making It Ends With Us.

βI remember how incredibly painful it was for her,β Tamblyn wrote. βIβm glad all of this has come to light with solid reporting and receipts,β she continued, directing her followers to The New York Timesβ coverage of the lawsuit.
In a lawsuit filed with the California Civil Complaints Department on Friday, December 20, Lively accused Baldoni, her It Ends With Us costar and director, of sexual harassment on the set of the film and conducting a βsocial manipulationβ campaign to damage her reputation.
All the Celebs Mentioned in Justin Baldoni's Alleged Blake Lively Takedown
In a statement to Us Weekly, Baldoniβs lawyer, Bryan Freedman, said Livelyβs accusations were βcompletely false, outrageous and intentionally salacious.β Freedman claimed that Lively sued to βfix her negative reputationβ and βrehash a narrativeβ regarding the filmβs production. Freedman further alleged that Lively made βmultiple demands and threatsβ while filming It Ends With Us, including βthreatening to not show up to set, threatening to not promote the film, ultimately leading to its demise during release, if her demands were not met.β
In a statement to The New York Times published Saturday, December 21, Lively denied any involvement in spreading negative information about Baldoni. βI hope that my legal action helps pull back the curtain on these sinister retaliatory tactics to harm people who speak up about misconduct and helps protect others who may be targeted,β she said.
