A representative for actor Ryan Reynolds has stepped in to defend him, after a series of fiery texts from the star were made public last week.
The private communications were included in court documents obtained as part of Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni’s ongoing legal dispute, and showed Reynolds referring to the latter as a “malignantly vein, sociopathic FAUXminist.”
“Yes, Ryan got involved – what husband wouldn’t support his wife and the mother of his children?” Reynolds’ rep responded in a statement to Us Weekly.
“He saw his wife fighting daily to stand up against sexual harassment in a private and respectful way, only to face retaliation for doing so.”
In another unsealed exchange, Reynolds labelled Baldoni a “thoroughbred, predatory fraudster” and an “inexplicably toxic mess.”
The representative stated Reynolds not only stood by these choice words, but also felt he “wasn’t angry enough,” when sending them.
“[Ryan Reynolds] passionately believes in and will stand up for the basic right to a safe workplace free of harassment and retaliation for his wife and others. Then, now and always.”

The explosive texts come a week after court documents from the high-profile Lively vs Baldoni trial were unsealed.
This exposed a number of messages sent to and from Lively, Baldoni and Reynolds, featuring many high-profile members of their respective inner circles – from Taylor Swift, to Jameela Jamil.
In one group exchange with Reynolds, Matt Damon and Luciana Barroso, Lively made a pointed quip regarding her and Baldoni’s It Ends With Us feud.
“This movie nearly killed me,” she wrote in the messages.

Taylor Swift’s texts revealed in lawsuit
“The director/costar/producer/financier/head of the studio (yes all one person) had zero experience, but the good news is he also has no taste and an enormous ego.
She went on to allege that her ex-co-star was “in a cult.”
“[He] believes he’s our century’s prophet. I wish even one of these things was hyperbole.”
Baldoni was raised in, and is a member of the Baha’i faith; a religion founded in the 19th century that focuses on the unity of humanity and the elimination of prejudice.
Lively has been enmeshed in an ongoing legal saga with Baldoni since late 2024, following bombshell sexual harassment allegations made by the actress.
Lively claimed she’d been the victim of “severe emotional distress” while on set for the film adaptation of It Ends With Us, which Baldoni both directed and starred in alongside her.
