Noam Galai/WireImageBlake Livelybrother in law Bart Johnson comes to her defense after she sued It ends with us costar and director Justin Baldoni.
“Her complaints were filed during the shoot. For the record. Long before the public conflict. The cast unfollowed him for some reason,” Johnson, 54, claimed in the comments section The New York Times‘ Instagram on Saturday, December 21 “Read this article before you spew (sic) ignorance.”
“His PR team was stellar. Gross and disgusting, but highly effective,” Johnson continued. “Read the article, their text message exchange and his PR campaign strategy to bury her by any means necessary. No one is without (sic) faults. But the public played.”
Johnson claimed that “obviously there were mistakes” and pointed to Lively’s many responsibilities, including being a mom to four children and husband Ryan Reynolds‘children.
Blake Lively’s brother-in-law Bart Johnson claims there’s more to the story in the drama It Ends With Us.

“But IMAGINE being a stay at home mom with 4 kids, married to the busiest man in Hollywood, and being a girl boss who runs multiple companies while writing, producing, running a non-profit, and working 16+ hour days from home, so you can be with your kids,” he wrote. “Launching 2 new businesses you’ve worked/developed for years (distributors planned the launch, not you, btw) all while getting hit with a VERY expensive PR campaign because you filed a sexual harassment lawsuit for the very movie you have to go get out there and promote in the right tone, or will you get cooked!?’
Johnson noted that Lively, 37, “looks like she’s doing a hell of a job for me, trying to do good things for the right reasons.”
“But yeah, let’s write from our couch how much we hate her for making mistakes,” he continued. “That makes sense. I mean, she was rude in these conversations that magically repeated themselves. I saw it. None of us have ever been wrong or mistaken. Never. We should discount decades of good for those few bad moments. I’m glad the microscope isn’t on me every day of my life.’
In another comment, Johnson clarified what he meant by “girl boss,” explaining the term “means a woman who, as an entrepreneur and/or business owner, kicks $$ into what was previously male dominated and shows that they are each bit as capable and qualified if not more so in this space. She is my hero, as is any woman who makes it like this. You can define it however you want, but it’s up to you.”

“Ellen, I’m really sorry you feel that way. I’m sure you have a huge heart and want the best. I can promise you that the truth is not out yet. Blake worked harder on this movie than anything I’ve seen her do in my entire life,” he wrote at the time. “Because it meant so much to her. The message is in the book. And in the movie. Not in the short clips / interviews. She is the reason the message / this movie / is getting out.”
