Bryan Freedman, Baldoni’s lawyer, told PEOPLE in a statement on Dec. 21 that Blake’s complaint was to “fix her negative reputation.” He added that her allegations are “false, outrageous and intentionally salacious with an intent to publicly hurt.”

Freedman also alleged that Blake caused issues during the filming of the movie, including “threatening to not show up to set, threatening to not promote the film, ultimately leading to its demise during release.”

Blake, meanwhile, issued a statement to theTimes, saying, “I hope that my legal action helps pull back the curtain on these sinister retaliatory tactics to harm people who speak up about misconduct and helps protect others who may be targeted.”

However, Blake alleges in the complaint that Baldoni subsequently began a retaliatory smear campaign against her soon after.
