According to MailOnline, Leslie Sloane, the publicist for Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds, has asked to have her role in the $400 million lawsuit brought by actor-director Justin Baldoni dismissed.
For those who don’t know, the case started when Lively accused Baldoni of sexually harassing her when they were filming It Ends With Us. Baldoni countersued Sloane, Lively, and Reynolds for slander.
Sigrid McCawley, Salone’s lawyer, refutes all of the accusations that she spearheaded a smear campaign against Baldoni, according to court filings.
He declared, “Baldoni’s accusations regarding the creative issues are tellingly sexist and irrelevant.”
Baldoni calls Ms. Lively, an executive producer on the movie, “tyrannical” and “aggressive,” among other derogatory names, because she dared to contribute to the writing, costume, and editing.
