The former Fox News host tore into the “It Ends With Us” actor in a lengthy rant.
Megyn Kelly isn’t buying actor Blake Lively’s legal claims against her “It Ends with Us” costar and director Justin Baldoni.
The former Fox News host unleashed a lengthy rant against Lively, whom she deemed a “serial fraudster” on Thursday’s episode of her SiriusXM radio show.
“My own position is she’s absolutely ruined her brand. She has started a fight she cannot win,” Kelly said. “I have yet to see one of her complaints borne out. In fact, all of the ones I’ve seen have been undermined by [Baldoni’s] hardcore proof in text messaging and so on. That puts a totally different light on her horrific allegations. Then you see what she actually said and wrote. It’s very different.”
Lively filed a complaint against Baldoni and then a lawsuit alleging that the director had sexually harassed her while on the set of “It Ends with Us” and had orchestrated a smear campaign to damage her reputation following the film’s release in August of last year.
Baldoni has denied any wrongdoing and retaliated with a $250 million libel lawsuit against The New York Times over its coverage of Lively’s allegations. He also filed a $400 million countersuit against Lively and her husband, Ryan Reynolds, alleging defamation.
