Why Did Justin Baldoni Speak Out About It Ends With Us Drama? Here’s What A Source Says

Justin Baldoni participates in an interview on Soul Boom.

The legal battle between Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni was arguably thought to be over months ago when the two It Ends with Us stars settled the case. Both actors now have more unfinished business, as Lively (38) is requesting that Baldoni (42) cover her legal fees. Amid the continued legal proceedings, Baldoni and his wife, Emily (41), released a video message in which they addressed the drama. In the aftermath, a source is now dropping claims regarding why the actor/filmmaker and his spouse decided to speak out.

Justin and Emily Baldoni addressed the legal situation earlier this month via a joint Instagram video they shared. In the clip, Justin referenced “painful things” that had been said about him since his skirmish with Lively began in late 2024. While the pair didn’t want to add to the “noise” that had been created as a result of the case, they apparently felt compelled to speak out. Emily also added that despite what transpired, she and her husband were “feeling immense gratitude for so many things and so many people” during this time.
