Ryan Reynolds’ rep responds to leaked text messages

Ryan Reynolds is the center of his wife Blake Lively ongoing (and highly publicized) case against Justin Baldoniand now his rep is speaking out after text messages from the actor were revealed as part of the unsealed deposition.

Fans are still processing Blake Lively’s explosive text messages that revealed her exchanges with several Hollywood stars, including Taylor Swift, Ben Affleck and her husband Ryan Reynolds.

By Puck NewsA spokesperson for Reynolds defended the actor against fan backlash over his comments revealed in text messages.

“Yes, Ryan got involved – what husband wouldn’t support his wife and the mother of his children?” said his representative.

The representative, who was not identified, continued his defense. “He watched his wife fight daily to address sexual harassment in a private and respectful manner, only to face retaliation,” the spokesperson continued.

“If anything, Ryan feels like he wasn’t angry enough,” the statement read. “He passionately believes and will defend the fundamental right to a safe workplace, free from harassment and retaliation against his wife and others. Yesterday, today and always.”

“I’m very frustrated because this is a moment where Blake should be celebrating,” Reynolds began his criticism of Baldoni, according to PEOPLE. “She made this incredible victory possible. She wanted this weekend to come true.”

The actor went on to add “Baldoni and these other stupid juice buckets should acknowledge the speculation and gossip themselves. They should jump in front of this in the most full and unreserved way. Now.”

The “Deadpool & Wolverine” star wasn’t finished and continued his tirade against Baldoni, calling him a “controlling slut,” a “pure-blooded, predatory fraudster” and an “inexplicably toxic mess.”

Reynolds also said in the messages that Baldoni has “a complete absence of not only remorse, but that self-preservation is a character study in malignant and lazy stupidity and darkness.”

“As stated from the beginning and reflected in our clients’ requests, as well as in messages from Sony discussing Ms. Lively’s behaviors, the evidence does not support [Lively’s] claims as a matter of law,” Freedman said in a statement Jan. 21.

“A simple reading of the recently published message exchanges makes the truth very clear. We remain confident in the legal process and in clarifying the names of all of Justin Baldoni’s parties,” he said.

According to Us every weekan inside source shared that Taylor Swift felt “betrayed” by Lively, allegedly due to the fallout from the unsealed text messages revealed in the Lively and Baldoni affair.

“Honestly, it’s been very difficult for Taylor,” the source told the outlet. “Having her texts broadcast made her feel exposed and somehow violated, like something private no longer belonged to her. That doesn’t sit well with her.”

“She wasn’t trying to get involved or do something bigger,” the source continued. “She was just supporting Blake as a friend, in what she thought was a private moment. Now it’s become everything she didn’t ask for.”
