Justin Baldoni, the man who brought us all the feels on Jane the Virgin, has finally spoken up about his legal showdown with none other than Gossip Girl royalty, Blake Lively.
Let’s rewind: Back in late December, Blake, the queen of snappy comebacks and perfect hair, decided to file a lawsuit against Justin, accusing him of sexual harassment and inappropriate on-set behavior. (Yikes, right?) But Justin didn’t just sit back and let that simmer. Nope, he turned the heat up to full boil, firing back with a whopping $400 million lawsuit against Blake, her husband Ryan “Deadpool” Reynolds, and her publicist. That’s a lot of zeros—and a whole lot of drama.
Now, fast forward to January 17, when TMZ (because of course it’s TMZ) caught Justin at LAX. Sporting that “just trying to catch my flight” vibe, Justin stopped to drop a few cryptic words about how he’s holding up.
“Grateful to be with the family,” he said, with the kind of calm that screams I’ve been through media training. But wait, there’s more! When asked how he’s surviving this real-life telenovela, he replied, “Oh man, we have amazing friends and family and faith.” Faith, you say? A subtle jab at Blake and Ryan’s PR team, or just a wholesome moment? The jury’s out.
So, what’s next? Will this lawsuit turn into a courtroom showdown with more plot twists than Euphoria? Will Ryan Reynolds tweet something snarky and perfect? Stay tuned, because this Hollywood drama is just getting started—and we’re living for every second of it.
