As per a report on TMZ, Lively, in her lawsuit, claims that Baldoni contacted her personal trainer allegedly inquiring about her weight due to concerns about his back ahead of filming a scene in which he was required to lift her. Lively has objected to the move, arguing that her claims about the weight-related comments should be heard, as it “provides necessary context for evaluating” her claim that he retaliated against her.Baldoni, however, maintains that any communication with Lively’s trainer was unrelated to allegations that his team engaged in a smear campaign.The judge has not yet ruled on whether the evidence will be admitted at trial.
