Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds’ four children are reportedly struggling to cope with the ongoing legal dispute between their mother and It Ends With Us director Justin Baldoni.

According to court documents obtained by Page Six, the couple’s children—James, 10, Inez, eight, Betty, five, and Olin, two—have been “emotionally uprooted” and are experiencing substantial distress due to the high-profile legal battle.

In an amended complaint filed in New York federal court on Tuesday, the Gossip Girl actress detailed how the situation has taken a significant toll on her mental and emotional well-being.

The documents state that Lively has struggled to even get out of bed on certain days.

"She frequently chooses not to venture outside in public. While she has fought to maintain her personal life and business interests, behind closed doors she has suffered from grief, fear, trauma, and extreme anxiety."

Additionally, Lively has reportedly experienced “repeated and painful physical symptoms”, further exacerbating her distress.

Sources close to the actress reveal that her children are not shielded from the impact of the lawsuit. The highly publicized case has led to increased media scrutiny, making it difficult for the family to maintain a sense of normalcy.

While Ryan Reynolds has been publicly supporting his wife, Lively’s mental and emotional exhaustion continues to raise concerns among those close to her.

Why is Blake Lively suing Justin Baldoni?

Blake Lively is suing Justin Baldoni over allegations of sexual harassment and misconduct on the set of It Ends With Us. The lawsuit, filed earlier this year, accuses the actor-director of inappropriate behavior and creating a hostile work environment. The legal battle has since escalated, with both parties fighting fiercely in court.
