Stephanie Jones, founder of PR firm Jonesworks, just filed a lawsuit against “It Ends With Us” star Justin Baldoni, his production company Wayfarer, and PR heavyweights after “Gossip Girl” star Blake Lively herself dropped bombshell allegations against him.

Jones accuses her former employee Jennifer Abel of teaming up with Baldoni and crisis PR guru Melissa Nathan for a shady smear campaign targeting Lively.

After the film was released, rumors about the tension between the two actors circulated. The narrative was painted that Lively was difficult to work with and that she weirdly avoided the subject of domestic violence even though it was featured in the movie.

“Defendants secretly conspired for months to attack Jones and her firm, breach contracts, and steal clients,” Jones’ lawsuit says. She also alleges they used the scandal to drive a wedge between her and Baldoni, blaming her for a campaign she didn’t even know about!

Jones says she fired Abel in August when she discovered the backstabbing. Abel started her own PR firm and continued to work with Baldoni and other Jonesworks clients.

Blake Lively filed her own lawsuit earlier this month, accusing Baldoni of sexual harassment.
