A day after It Ends With Us star Blake Lively leveled sexual harassment allegations against her film’s actor-director Justin Baldoni, the film’s executive producer, author Colleen Hoover has supported Lively through Instagram. In the social media post, Hoover wrote, “You have been nothing but honest, kind, supportive and patient since the day we met. Thank you for being exactly the human that you are. Never change. Never wilt.”

One of Lively’s many major accusations is that Baldoni and Wayfarer Studios’ Jamey Heath entered her makeup van without asking her even as she was breastfeeding. Besides, Lively claimed that the actor-filmmaker made efforts to tarnish her reputation through social media. According to Lively's legal complaint, “others on the set” also experienced “inappropriate and unwelcome behaviour” from Baldoni and Heath.

On the other hand, Baldoni’s legal team has refuted Lively's accusations, describing these as “false, outrageous, and intentionally salacious.”

Meanwhile, the talent agency WME has dropped Baldoni as a client following the accusations against him.
