Justin Baldoni’s ‘Offensive’ Behavior That Left Blake Lively In ‘Pain’

While the couple has made various allegations against each other in recent months, the initiates have recently shared an overview of what could have really triggered their legal battle.

Although Blake Lively’s father has died since, sources say that talking about his father is prohibited for anyone, but that Justin Baldoni has often mentioned him and claimed that he could speak to him.

According to the Daily mailSources close to the star of “Gossip Girl” revealed that the “very offensive” behavior of Baldoni which left it in “physical pain” and apparently provoked their legal battle.

Lively complained in his legal file that Baldoni, a follower of the Baha’i religion, had said on several occasions that he could speak to his late father Ernie Lively (formerly Ernie Brown before taking the family name of his wife).

An initiate told the media that the subject was very delicate for the actress and that she could not bear people to talk about him.

“Blake only likes anyone to talk about her father. She will have found very offensive for someone outside her circle to raise her name,” said a source.

“He has died for a few years, but it is a very, very delicate subject with her,” added the source.

Lively’s father, an actor himself, died of heart complications in 2021 at 74, after undergoing cardiac surgery in 2013.

The actress apparently loved her that she honors her name in her Blake Brown hair care brand.

Ernie’s acting career started in the 1975 television series “The Waltons”, playing in shows like “The West Wing”, “Murder, She Write” and “The X Files”.

In his complaint for sexual harassment against Baldoni, Lively said that Baldoni raising her late father in their conversations “disturbed” his “deeply”.

According to the trial, Baldoni claimed to “speak to the dead” and on several occasions, he told Lively that he had “spoke to his recently deceased father”.

The legal document said: “On an occasion, when he claimed to have spoken with the deceased father of Ms. Lively (a person that Mr. Baldoni had never met), Ms. Lively tried to divert the comment with humor, saying to Mr. Baldoni:” Let him know that he owed me 40 dollars “. Mr. Baldoni replied:” Wait, is he really? “

He continued: “Ms. Lively was shocked that Mr. Baldoni pushed the conversation further and replied with another attempt at humorous deviation, declaring:” Oh God no. He owes me much more than that. “”

“Mr. Baldoni then closed his eyes, put his hand on his heart and said:” I left my apartment this morning, and I stretched in my pocket … and there were 40 in there, which I did not put it “, said the document.

He added: “This exchange deeply disturbed Ms. Lively, and it was not (as the defendants have claimed since) limited to Mr. Baldoni who simply claimed to pray for his father.”

Meanwhile, a judge granted a request for a Lively protection order in his legal battle with Baldoni, but the Court limited the scope of the restrictions it has sought.

Liveuse and her husband Ryan Reynolds asked judge Lewis Liman to pass a protection prescription before disclosing conversations with “high -level” people on his time on “It ends with us” because they fear that Baldoni can disclose them to the press.

According to People magazineJudge Liman judged on Thursday that if certain confidential documents will remain protected, a designation “of lawyers” only “can only be applied if their disclosure is” very likely to cause an important, commercial, financial or privacy company “.

“And when confidential information is not disclosed to the media, it can spread by gossip and innuendo to those of the tight artistic community able to harm one or the other of the parties, but in a way that is not easily and immediately detected,” said Liman.

Baldoni lawyer Bryan Freedman responded to Judge Liman’s decision, stressing that the actor has never tried to seek the type of deeply personal information, who moves to protect himself.

“We fully agree with the Court’s decision to provide a close extent of protections to categories such as private mental health files and personal security measures that have never interested us, as opposed to the extremely excessive demand for Ms. Lively,” he said.

Freedman added: “We remain focused on the necessary communications which will directly contradict the unfounded accusations of Ms. Lively”.

Meanwhile, a source close to Lively said in a press release: “Today, the Court rejected the objections of the Wayfarer parties and seized the protections necessary to guarantee the free movement of discovery equipment without any risk of intimacy of witnesses or prejudice to the security of any individual. With this order in place, Ms court.” “”
