As the women continued, they noted that they were upset to see “the unabashed exploitation of domestic violence survivors’ stories to silence a woman who asked for safety” … and noted that the “hypocrisy was astounding.”

Before they signed off their statement, they praised Blake for speaking out, adding … “We are struck by the reality that even if a woman is as strong, celebrated, and resourced as our friend Blake, she can face forceful retaliation for daring to ask for a safe working environment.”

TMZ broke the story … Blake sued “It Ends With Us” director and costar Justin Baldoni, in which she alleged a smear campaign was conducted against her after she accused him of sexual harassment while filming the drama.

Baldoni’s lawyer, Bryan Freedman, later slammed the lawsuit … calling it an attempt to “fix her negative reputation.”

He also vehemently denied the claims made against Baldoni, noting they were “false, outrageous and intentionally salacious.”
