Baldoni initially outlined his allegations against Lively in an 87-page lawsuit he filed Dec. 31 against the Times, accusing the newspaper of libel after it published an explosive story into Lively's claims of harassment and what she called a "smear campaign” aimed at her reputation over the production of "It Ends With Us” (Lively was not named as a party in the lawsuit).

The attorney for Justin Baldoni said on Tuesday that the on-set tensions and allegations of sexual harassment from Blake Lively against his client — "It Ends With Us" director and co-star Justin Baldoni — stemmed from the "unfortunate fact" that Lively did not read the book the film was based on.

Ryan Reynolds is stepping out for the first time since his wife Blake Lively filed a formal lawsuit against Justin Baldoni, attending the National Board Awards in New York City on Jan. 7.
