Justin Baldoni's Father Reposts Video Bashing Blake Lively And Her Husband Ryan Reynolds

As the legal battle between Justin Baldoni and Blake Lively continues to drag on, the former's father made his stance on the issue very clear when he recently reposted a video on Instagram that showed support for his son while also taking a jab at both Blake Lively and her husband, Ryan Reynolds.

Sam Baldoni, Justin Baldoni's father, has since removed the repost from his Instagram page, but the original video is still available online. The video in question features a collage of images of the 'It Ends With Us' star from news clippings, with his image put alongside words such as 'compassionate', 'supportive', 'honest', and more. The collage also featured big blue letters the words, "In A World Full Of Blakes And Ryans, Be A Justin". Sam Baldoni had reposted his video on his Instagram, with the caption having a heart hand emoji.

It seems that this legal battle will not end without the celebrities facing each other in court, though, as attorneys from both sides have opted out of mediation in favour of their trial next year.

Just prior to this, Blake Lively and Ryan Reynold's attorneys had requested that Justin Baldoni should not be allowed access to private chats of the couple and other celebrities for fear that they might be leaked to the public.

This new development has come after a $400 million dollar lawsuit by Justin Baldoni against Blake Lively, her husband Ryan Reynolds, and publicity team, with Baldoni suing them for defamation, civil extortion, and invasion of privacy. This lawsuit was filed against Lively after she filed a lawsuit against Baldoni, accusing the director of sexual harassment on the set of 'It Ends With Us' as well as creating and managing a smear campaign against the actress in order to protect his own image. Both sides claim innocence and their trial will be held in March, 2026.
