Ryan Reynolds shares how he and wife Blake Lively manage their ‘real life’ amid Justin Baldoni lawsuit
Ryan Reynolds’ continued support of his wife, Blake Lively, helps them manage their “real life” as her and Justin Baldoni’s “It Ends With Us” drama plays out in the eyes of the world.
“People have no idea what’s really going on, you know?” the actor told Willie Geist during a live taping of Sunday Sitdown when asked about how he and Lively are coping with the fallout of the nasty legal battle.
The “Deadpool” star gushed that he has “never in [his] life been more proud of [his] wife.”
“And I’ve just never in my life been more proud of someone with that level of integrity that brings that with them and carries that with them in everything that they do.”
“You really see kind of the illusion behind so much of this stuff, you know? Digital life versus real life,” Reynolds, 49, explained.
His raving comments about the “Gossip Girl” alum come days after reports that she is “ruined” in Hollywood over her years-long legal battle with the “It Ends With Us” director.
“This lawsuit has ruined her in Hollywood,” a Disney executive, who allegedly worked with Lively, 38, told the Daily Mail in an article published last week.
“The truth is she was never that popular. She had a reputation for being difficult, one of those toxic people who always thinks she knows best,” the source added.
The outlet also reported that Reynolds and Lively are eyeing a move to the UK so the latter “could rebrand there” after the legal war.
Lively sued Baldoni for sexual harassment and retaliation in December 2024, citing several alleged incidents from their time on the set of “It Ends With Us.”
Baldoni, 42, denied his co-star’s allegations and responded with a $400 million countersuit, which was tossed out in June.
But as we previously reported, he scored a major legal win in the case earlier this month after 13 of Lively’s allegations against the Wayfarer Studios co-founder were dismissed.
“We’re very pleased the Court dismissed all sexual harassment claims and every claim brought against the individual defendants,” Baldoni’s team said of the ruling in a statement to Page Six at the time.
“These were very serious allegations, and we are grateful to the Court for its careful review of the facts, law and voluminous evidence that was provided.”
Lively also addressed the court’s decision with a statement shared via Instagram, saying: “The last thing I wanted in my life was a lawsuit, but I brought this case because of the pervasive RETALIATION I faced, and continued to, for privately and professionally asking for a safe working environment for myself and others.”
Lively and Baldoni’s legal teams have failed to come to a settlement agreement, leading them to face off in court on May 18.
