Blake Lively has issued a heartfelt apology in an amended lawsuit filed against Justin Baldoni on Tuesday.
The Gossip Girl alum apologized to It Ends With Us screenwriter Christy Hall for mistakenly claiming that Ryan Reynolds wrote one of the film’s “iconic” scenes.
According to the filing, Blake wrote in an email to Christy:
“I heard you were ambushed at your junket with a question about something I said on the red carpet. I feel awful. I never would’ve said anything that I thought could be used against you, or anyone. I was just proud of my partner and feeling grateful for the ways in which he shows up for me.”
She further added:
“I believe firmly that two things can be true. In this case, he can show up for me and do great work doing so, and you can do great work which got us all here. But the media will make things more black and white. And I should’ve seen that before speaking off the cuff.”
In the new document, Blake detailed an alleged “smear campaign” orchestrated against her by Justin Baldoni and his team.
