Per Puck News, a rep for Reynolds defended the actor against the negative reaction from fans regarding his comments that were revealed in the text messages.
“Yes, Ryan got involved — what husband wouldn’t support his wife and the mother of his children?” his rep said.
The rep, who was unidentified, continued his defense. “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,” the rep continued.
“If anything, Ryan feels like he wasn’t angry enough,” the statement read. “He 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.”

“I’m super frustrated because this is a moment in which Blake should be celebrating,” Reynolds began his criticism of Baldoni, according to PEOPLE. “She made this unbelievable win happen. She WILLED this weekend into reality.”
The actor continued, adding “Baldoni and these other buckets of dumb-dumb-juice should be acknowledging the speculation and gossip themselves. They should be jumping in front of it in the most full throated, unqualified way. Now.”
The “Deadpool & Wolverine” star wasn’t done, and continued his tirade against Baldoni, referring to him as a “controlling b-tch,” “thoroughbred, predatory fraudster,” and an “inexplicably toxic mess.”

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

“As stated all along, and reflected in our clients’ motions, 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 via statement on January 21.
“A simple read of the newly released message exchanges make the truth abundantly clear. We remain confident in the legal process and clearing the names of all the Justin Baldoni parties,” he said.

According to Us Weekly, an inside source shared that Taylor Swift feels “betrayed” by Lively allegedly due to the fallout from the unsealed text messages being revealed in the Lively and Baldoni case.
“It’s honestly been really hard for Taylor,” the source told the outlet. “Having her texts out there made her feel exposed and kind of violated, like, something private suddenly wasn’t hers anymore. That doesn’t sit well with her.”
“She wasn’t trying to get involved or make anything bigger,” the source continued. “She was just supporting Blake as a friend, in what she thought was a private moment. Now, it’s turned into this whole thing that she didn’t ask for.”

Lively began her messages to Swift by asking the Grammy winner about where their friendship stands, while noting that during the filming, production and promotion of “It Ends With Us” she had been self-centered.
“I have no reason to ask, but I donno [sic], I’ve been feeling like I should… is everything ok? I felt like a bad friend lately because I was such a sad sack who only talked about my own sh-t for months. You were generous to not only be the key person there for me during all of it, but also to let me off the hook for being so in it,” the “Gossip Girl” star wrote to the singer.

“I always want the opportunity to be a better friend if there’s something I unintentionally did,” the actress’s messages continued. “I know how busy and taxed you are – physically, emotionally, practically, so I don’t expect any more from you ever. Just want to make sure all is good.”
