Justin Baldoni is speaking out after settling his long legal battle with Blake Lively.
The actor posted a video with his wife, Emily Baldoni, on Instagram Wednesday, Emily said the two were feeling “immense gratitude” for people and the things that have happened to them.
Justin noted, “Gratitude has saved us.”
But Emily said that the gratitude did not “negate the injustice and pain” they’ve felt over the past few years.
“We just wanted to let the justice system run its course,” Justin said, as Emily added, “And the truth and facts have spoken for themselves.”
The director said the two are “healing” after going through a traumatic experience. He thanked fans who vocally supported them when they couldn’t speak for themselves.
“Thank you is not enough,” he noted.
Justin and Lively, 38, settled their intense court battle stemming from their film, “It Ends With Us,” on May 4 — just two weeks before their trial was scheduled to begin.
The settlement came a month after a judge threw out 10 out of 13 of Lively’s claims, including her claim that Baldoni sexually harassed her.
They continued, “We acknowledge the process presented challenges and recognize concerns raised by Ms. Lively deserved to be heard.”
Both parties added that they “remain firmly committed to workplaces free of improprieties and unproductive environments” and it is their “sincere hope that this brings closure and allows all involved to move forward constructively and in peace, including a respectful environment online.”
Just hours after the settlement, Lively attended the 2016 Met Gala, where she posed on the red carpet in a pastel archival Versace gown from 2006. A day later, her husband, Ryan Reynolds, also shared a carefree selfie of the two.
Justin also appears unbothered.
