Ryan Reynolds‘ wife, Blake Lively, is currently embedded in some nasty drama with her It Ends With Us co-star Justin Baldoni. The actress has filed a lawsuit against the actor/director, accusing him of sexual harassment. For his part, Baldoni has responded with evidence that Lively allegedly hasn’t been telling all of the facts. Baldoni’s lawyer also confirmed that he plans to sue Lively and Reynolds amid the rest of the drama. Now, Ryan and Blake are being forced to deal with some tarnish to their reputation. However, the Deadpool actor’s response may surprise some fans.
According to Life and Style sources, Ryan Reynolds isn’t bothered by Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni’s scandal. In fact, he’s said to be happy that his wife is speaking out and standing up for herself through all of the chaos and media speculation.
“Ryan is so proud of Blake for standing up for herself,” a source reveals. “She is going to see this fight through to the end.”
Meanwhile, Lively has Reynolds by her side as she claims that Baldoni hired a team to destroy her reputation online. She also accused him of inappropriate behavior on set. Her suit alleges that Baldoni added in gratuitous sex scenes, shamed her for her weight, and even entered her trailer while she was breastfeeding.

“I hope that my legal action helps pull back the curtain on these sinister retaliatory tactics to harm people who speak up about misconduct and helps protect others who may be targeted,” Blake said in a statement about the lawsuit.
However, Justin Baldoni has claimed that Blake Lively’s story is “completely false.” He even released text messages proving some of his points, such as the actress inviting him to her trailer while she was using a breast pump.
Fans online have seemed to forge their own opinions about Ryan Reynolds and his wife throughout the drama. There has also been speculation that Blake and Justin may have carried on a romantic relationship during the film, and their affair took a messy turn.
“He knows they’re cooked,” one person commented.
“I don’t think Blake and Ryan can talk their way out of this one,” another said.
Reynolds and Lively met on the set of Green Lantern in 2010 (via People). They struck up a friendship that later turned romantic. The couple tied the knot in 2012 at Boone Hall Plantation in South Carolina. The couple later apologized for holding the event at a former plantation. Over the years, they have welcomed four children together, James, Inez, Betty, and Olin.
Blake and Ryan were once one of Hollywood’s most beloved couples. However, because of the latest It Ends With Us controversy, some fans are looking at the pair differently. Resurfaced interviews of the actress seemingly being rude to those around her have circulated. Meanwhile, the couple have mostly been steering clear of the spotlight following the rumors.
It seems that no matter what happens, Ryan Reynolds will stand by Blake Lively’s side. He reportedly wants her to fight, and he’s ready to take a stand with her.
