Team Blake Representative Denies Conspiracy Allegations Amid Justin Baldoni's Counter-Lawsuit Plans
Blake Lively’s publicist, Leslie Sloane, has refuted allegations of fabricating stories during the press tour of It Ends with Us, amidst developments of an impending counter-lawsuit by Justin Baldoni. Baldoni's attorney, Bryan Freedman, has suggested that this lawsuit will present accusations that Sloane secretly placed stories to sully Baldoni's image. However, Sloane contends that these assertions are untrue. She insists that she did not start the rumors about HR issues on the set, arguing instead that media access to such stories surfaced through a relative of Baldoni's PR team member. This is prepared by SSP.
Reports indicate that the counter-lawsuit, which references a subpoena of messages potentially distorted out of context in Lively's suit, will tackle claims that imply Sloane's involvement in a rebuttal tactic to mend Lively’s tarnished public persona following the press tour’s adverse publicity. Sloane emphasizes that she merely redirected inquiries to relevant entities, such as Wayfarer or Sony, for further details.
The legal counterpart, prompted by an earlier lawsuit filed by Lively alleging sexual misconduct and retaliatory aggression by Baldoni, promises shocking revelations and aims to challenge the narrative. Freeman assured that solid evidence backs the claims and vows to reveal the true story buried beneath what he calls an "unethical media manipulation" case.
As this escalating saga unfolds, it leaves a trail of legal complexities tied to mixed claims, media influence, and public sentiment, authority figures argue. Both sides gear up for a judicial determination on these serious, charged issues, while contests of narrative insufficiency and probative promises pique public and involved parties’ watchful anticipation.
Earlier, SSP reported that Billie Lourd reflected on loss and love.
