Amid this, a new report claims that Evans and his wife, Alba Baptista, will continue supporting Lively and Reynolds.

A new report has suggested that Chris Evans and Alba Baptista are in support of Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds amid the legal battle against Justin Baldoni. Star exclusively learned from a source that the “Captain America” star and his wife are “sticking” with the “Deadpool” actor “every step of the way.” The Marvel stars have reportedly maintained a close friendship for several years.
The source told the outlet that Evans and Reynolds “bonded tightly” after they went for “a lot of the same parts” during their early career days. Following that, the two reportedly also faced “the same pressures as highly paid Marvel superheroes” in the “last 10 years.” The source explained, “It’s a crazy lifestyle and they’ve both been through it.” They further stated that Evans “definitely looks up to” Reynolds.
The Star source also claimed that Evans is “sympathetic to the PR struggle” that Reynolds and his wife, Lively, have been “going through since December.” Last year, the release of “It Ends With Us” was overshadowed by chatter around bitter drama between the “Gossip Girl” star and Baldoni. In December, Lively filed a lawsuit against her co-star. She accused Baldoni of sexual harassment and launching a smear campaign.
Following that, Baldoni hit back at Lively with a countersuit. It was later dismissed by a New York judge in June. Amid this, according to the Star source, some people have “distanced themselves” from Lively and Reynolds. However, Evans and Baptista will remain by the couple’s side. Meanwhile, the source also claims that Lively and Reynolds are grateful and will “remember” their support.
