Blake Lively made changes to her lawsuit against Justin Baldoni late Tuesday, raising eyebrows with a particularly shocking claim. One of her allegations states that Baldoni asked her an extremely inappropriate question.
According to the legal documents, the 37-year-old actress accuses Baldoni, 41, of making an “intrusive” inquiry about her and Ryan Reynolds’ intimate life while they were working on It Ends With Us. Baldoni’s lawyer has since dismissed the recent filing.
Lively alleges that the director-actor pressured her to “orgasm” on camera during a scene.
The lawsuit claims that both actors had initially discussed removing the scene and had “agreed” to take it out. However, Baldoni allegedly made “a last-ditch attempt to keep one in which the couple orgasm together.”
The complaint further states that Baldoni reportedly insisted on keeping the scene because “he and his partner climax simultaneously during intercourse.”
The legal document also includes an allegation that Baldoni directly asked Lively, “whether she and her husband climax simultaneously during intercourse, which Ms. Lively found invasive and refused to discuss.”
Meanwhile, Baldoni’s legal team has pushed back against these allegations.
Among Lively’s newly added claims is that two other actresses from It Ends With Us are expected to come forward to support her case with evidence.
However, Baldoni’s lawyer, Bryan Freedman, has dismissed the amended lawsuit, calling it “underwhelming” in what he describes as an already messy legal dispute.
Freedman argues that the filing lacks any real new evidence and does not introduce anything particularly damaging to his client.
The attorney, representing Baldoni, his PR team, and Wayfarer Studios, stated that the lawsuit is “filled with unsubstantial hearsay of unnamed persons who are clearly no longer willing to come forward or publicly support her claims,” as reported by TMZ on Wednesday.
He also added that his clients “have been transparent in providing receipts, real-time documents, and video showing a completely different story than what has been manipulated and cherry-picked to the media.”
This comes after the Gossip Girl star filed her amended lawsuit late Tuesday, claiming that two other actresses from the film had also experienced discomfort working with Baldoni.
A source from DailyMail.com has refuted these claims, stating, “Blake is really clutching at straws. She was said to have these smoking guns, and she really has nothing. Her amended complaint is baseless.”
