Besides revealing them as her “lifeline,” Lively got candid about navigating the Baldoni lawsuit with her husband.
Blake Lively says her and Ryan Reynolds’ kids got her through ‘intense year’
Instead of finding strength in her professional commitments, Blake Lively found herself relying on her four children with Ryan Reynolds amid the Justin Baldoni lawsuit. She admitted to finding an anchor in the kids — James, Inez, Betty, and Olin — calling them her “lifeline.” The actor also acknowledged the impact of the lawsuit on her present life, crediting the children for offering an escape from the demands of parenting.
According to Page Six’s exclusive report, an audience member revealed Lively’s words during the “Late Night with Seth Meyers” show. The actor confessed that she has “had a pretty intense year.” Referring to her kids, she continued, “They’re just my lifeline. No matter what day I am having.” Further shedding light on how parenting during such a difficult time is paradoxical, Lively elaborated how it forced a shift in focus. As such, the demands of parenting pulled her away from personal warfare because she had to cater to her children.
Instead of complaining about the situation, Lively admitted, “I have to be Disney Land for them. It’s the best, it’s chaos.” As per the report, the “It Ends With Us” actor could not discuss the particulars of the Justin Baldoni lawsuit, but she went through its broader implications. Addressing women all over, she touched upon the fear that silences women in similar circumstances.
“I see so many women around afraid to speak,” Lively detailed, adding, “I also acknowledge that many people don’t have the opportunity to speak so I do feel fortunate that I have been able to.” While Blake Lively called the lawsuit with Justin Baldoni one of the “lowest lows” of her life, her statement and confession in seeking refuge in her children are a testament to her resilience.
