Baldoni, who directed and starred in Lively in It Ends With Us, received the Voices of Solidarity Award from Vital Voices on December 9. The award recognizes outstanding men who show courage and compassion in defending the rights of women and girls. But after Blake filed a lawsuit against Baldoni on Saturday, the organization decided to strip him of the honor.

In a statement published on its website on Monday, the organization said it strongly supports the actor’s work in the film as in the past and condemns any attack on his reputation, which has no place in the acting community and civil society. The organization noted that they contacted Baldoni and informed him about the cancellation of his award.

Additionally, the “It Ends With Us” cast is now publicly supporting Blake Lively after several days of silence. For example, Brandon Sklenar and Jenny Slate have already stated this.

Let us remember that the “tension” between the actor and the director on the set, which the tabloids wrote about many times, was taken to a new dimension by Blake last Saturday. After the news of the lawsuit, in which the star accused a colleague of harassment, information poured in one after another: Ryan Reynolds blocked the actor on social networks a few months before the lawsuit, the actor left the agency after the Gossip Girl star’s accusations, and others. Note that many Hollywood stars have already sided with Lively.
