Blake Lively will not talk about her cоnflict with her co-star in public
Blake Lively has no plans to publicly address the rumored feud between her and It Ends With Us co-star/director Justin Baldoni.
The 36-year-old actress — who recently snubbed a fan on the red carpet — is reportedly trying to put the tension with Baldoni, 40, behind her, per TMZ.
The mother-of-four, who is married to Ryan Reynolds, is choosing to focus on her other castmates and her family.
Justin felt ‘hurt and sidelined’ by Blake — his onscreen love interest — while starring and directing the film adaption of Colleen Hoover’s best-selling novel, which has the same name as the feature film.
And Lively allegedly felt ‘fat-shamed’ by him on set and was uncomfortable with a kissing scene in which she believed he ‘lingered’ for longer than necessary.
From ‘day one’ insiders claim there was tension between the filmmakers.
It only escalated throughout the making of their movie, which crossed the $100 million mark at the global box office in its first week.
‘There were two camps on the film — team Blake and team Justin. This creative struggle set the tone for the negative experience behind the scenes and grew into them not speaking anymore,’ a source told Us Weekly.
The insider continued: ‘[Justin] was made to feel that his vision wasn’t as important as Blake’s, and it stifled the creativity on set.’
He is also said to have taken it personally that Lively made various script and wardrobe changes ‘often without consulting’ him.
