The legal battle between Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni surrounding the production of It Ends With Us is still ongoing and evolving. Lively is continuing to sue Baldoni over a number of allegations regarding his conduct on the film, including that he sexual harassed her and created a hostile work environment. A number of major names have been folded into the orbit of this case… and now, The Good Place and She-Hulk: Attorney at Law star Jameela Jamil is joining that list.
Recently-unsealed court documents have made a number of texts surrounding the case public, with Lively’s correspondence with Taylor Swift and Ben Affleck already making headlines. The documents also include an August 2024 exchange between Jamil and Jennifer Abel, a publicist who represented both her and Baldoni at the time. In the exchange, Jamil and Abel were criticizing Lively’s decorum during the It Ends With Us press tour, which was being criticized at the time for not taking the film’s subject of domestic abuse seriously. (The tide has since turned on that aspect of the ordeal, given what we now know Lively was dealing with at the time.)
