The source’s claim comes amid her alleged rift with her “It Ends With Us” co-star and director Justin Baldoni, who is understood to have felt “hurt and sidelined” by Lively as they went toe-to-toe on the set of the film adaption of Colleen Hoover’s best-selling novel with the same name.
The film, which focuses on domestic violence, reportedly saw a divide in ideas between the two lead stars. A source previously told the Daily Mail that they clashed over Baldoni’s “dismissive” attitude to her “input” because he failed to “consider Blake’s character’s perspective, instead focusing solely on what he believed was the abusive male viewpoint.”
“His approach was very chauvinistic, creating a tense atmosphere on set,” the source said, adding that some women on set felt the 40-year-old actor was “borderline abusive,” “unprofessional,” and “unapologetic.”
Meanwhile, another source shared with TMZ that Lively felt “fat-shamed” by the actor after he commented on her weight. However, Baldoni’s alleged history with back problems seemingly made him ask an onset trainer how much Lively weighed as he sought to protect himself from spraining his back.
When she heard the reports, she reportedly felt bothered as she had just given birth to her and Ryan Reynold’s fourth child.

Fans didn’t take it lightly on the “Savages” actress after she hosted an interview with her “It Ends With Us” co-stars Jenny Slate and Isabela Ferrer, as well as author Hoover, yet failed to discuss the theme of attention – domestic violence.
According to the Daily Mail, the four talked and laughed about several topics, including zodiac signs, their dream jobs, and other topics, but they failed to mention anything about domestic violence.
She had previously come under scrutiny for her watered-down answer to a reporter, who asked her if people who understood “the themes of this movie” could talk to her about it if they saw her in person.
“Ask for my address or my phone number,” Lively sarcastically replied. “Or I could just share my location with you and then we could.”

“sometimes ill [sic] be quietly going about my day and then ill [sic] remember the time Blake lively said this to a journalist,” the user captioned their post on X.
The fan then shared an image of Lively’s quote, which read: “I hope to have a few girls one day. If not girls, they better be tr-nnies. Because I have some amazing shoes and bags and stories that need to be appreciated.”

Amid heightened scrutiny of the actress, Lively’s “It Ends With Us” co-star, Brandon Sklenar, took to his Instagram page to give a statement regarding the situation.
He noted that it’s been sad to see the amount of “negativity” surrounding the film since its premiere and pleaded with fans to be “kind” in their approach to critiquing the actors.
Sklenar wrote, “I wanted to take a minute and address all this stuff swirling online. Colleen and the women of this cast stand for hope, perseverance, and for women choosing a better life for themselves. Vilifying the women who put so much of their heart and soul into making this film because they believe so strongly in its message seems counterproductive and detracts from what this film is about.”
He continued, “It is, in fact, the opposite of the point. What may or may not have happened behind the scenes does not and hopefully should not detract from what our intentions were in making this film. It’s been disheartening to see the amount of negativity being projected online.”
Concluding his lengthy statement, Sklenar said, “Let’s be a part of something better together. A part of a new story being written for women and all people everywhere. Lead with Love and please be Kind.”
