Blake Lively Seeks Protective Order After ‘Violent’ Threats

Lively and her husband Ryan Reynolds allege they’ve received “profane, sexist, and threatening communications.”

Blake Lively says she’s being “threatened” by communications amid her legal battle with It Ends With Us co-star Justin Baldoni and needs “additional protections,” according to documents obtained by People. Lively and husband Ryan Reynolds submitted a letter on Thursday requesting those protections, and also claimed that Lively, “her family, other members of the cast, various fact witnesses, and individuals that have spoken out publicly in support of Ms. Lively have received violent, profane, sexist, and threatening communications.” Both Baldoni and Lively had already agreed to a protective order, however Lively’s lawyers argue there’s “good cause” to amend the “model” one in place. Lively also amended her December complaint against Baldoni this week, wherein she claimed two of her female It Ends With Us co-stars were willing to testify that Baldoni had subjected them to “unwelcome behavior” on set. Lively’s publicist backed Lively’s claims that other “employees” besides Lively had made claims against Baldoni in her filing to be dismissed from his countersuit Thursday.
