Blake Lively, known for her role in the “Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants” film franchise, is currently embroiled in a legal battle surrounding her work on the movie “It Ends With Us.” In a show of solidarity, her former costars and close friends, America Ferrera, Amber Tamblyn, and Alexis Bledel, have come forward to support her.
The trio took to Instagram to issue a joint statement, expressing their shock and disappointment at the allegations against Blake. They commended her for speaking up and advocating for a safe work environment on set. The statement highlighted the troubling nature of the situation, pointing out the exploitation of domestic violence survivors’ stories to undermine Blake’s credibility.
Despite Blake’s status as a strong, celebrated actress, her friends emphasized that even she can face backlash for demanding a safe workplace. The statement concluded with a message of support for Blake and a call for accountability in the industry.
The controversy stems from Blake’s lawsuit against “It Ends With Us” director and costar, Justin Baldoni, accusing him of sexual harassment and alleging a smear campaign against her. Baldoni’s lawyer, Bryan Freedman, has vehemently denied the claims, labeling them as false and intended to damage his client’s reputation.
The ongoing legal battle has sparked conversations about workplace safety and the treatment of women in the entertainment industry. As the case unfolds, Blake continues to receive unwavering support from her friends and colleagues, who stand by her side in the fight for justice.
