Justin Baldoni admitted to ‘forcing himself on women’ during a car ride
Blake Lively’s former driver claims Justin Baldoni confessed to “forcing himself on women” during a “disturbing” conversation, new reports claim.
RadarOnline.com can reveal that Kevin Alexander gave Baldoni a ride during the production of It ends with us, in which the director spoke about his alleged lurid behavior, which the driver overheard.
The director is being sued by Lively for $160 million over allegations of sexual harassment on the set of the 2024 film and for orchestrating an alleged “smear campaign” against her — all of which Baldoni has denied.
And during a statement in court, Alexander recalled hearing Baldoni’s comments as he drove him, Lively, and her assistant Sophia Travaglia off the road. Gossip girl star’s apartment in New York to take them to a production office in New Jersey, where It ends with us was filmed in the spring of 2023.
He claimed that the actor openly discussed “his sexual relationships with women” in the presence of Lively and Travaglia.
Alexander also claimed that Baldoni revealed in the statement that he had “forced himself on women” in the past and that Baldoni himself had also been “sexually forced upon” by women.
Alexander noted in the statement that he could not “forget” the alleged exchange with Baldoni because it made him so “uncomfortable” that “it took his attention away from driving.”
He said: ‘For me it was very unusual to meet someone and talk like that in a car. That’s why it caught my attention.’
The driver continued, “Basically he kept talking about his sexual relationships, and again, I’m repeating myself, I guess, but you know, he would force himself on women.”
“If they said no, this or that, he would come back. It was just disturbing,” Alexander claimed in the statement.
When he finally arrived at the production office in New Jersey, Alexander claimed he approached Lively to express his concerns about Baldoni, even going so far as to suggest a “background check” be conducted on the actor/director.
He recalled: “When we got to the production office, which was just down the road, I stopped and let everyone out.
“I said to Blake, ‘I feel very uncomfortable. Something isn’t right here.
“I’d like to do a background check on him or something,” and later find out he was the producer who produced this movie.
When asked if he remembered “anything else” from his alleged conversation with Baldoni, Alexander claimed in the statement that Baldoni said “more things” but that he “didn’t pay attention to them because (he) was focused on driving.”
Alexander emphasized that the “key points” were Baldoni’s alleged comments about his sexual history with women.
“It’s disturbing to me. You can’t forget something like that,” he noted.
Sigrid McCawley, a member of Lively’s legal team, said: “As mentioned, the newly released evidence includes never-before-seen testimony, messages and evidence from numerous eyewitnesses that support the claims made in Ms. Lively’s lawsuit.”
Baldoni representatives have yet to respond to the driver’s allegations.
