Justin Baldoni finally broke his silence to blast nemesis Blake Lively and mock their lengthy legal battle over his alleged off-screen abuse.

Baldoni, 42, and his wife Emily published an Instagram video Wednesday that bashed Lively’s supposed ‘fight for women’ as an ‘injustice’ Baldoni has been subjected to.

The update from the couple comes after Lively demanded a whopping $8 million from Baldoni to cover her legal fees while battling his $400 million defamation lawsuit.

‘We haven’t done this in a while,’ Baldoni began his video with a chuckle as his wife agreed. 

‘So we have not spoken publicly for the better part of the last two years, and it’s not because we haven’t had anything to say, because Lord knows we have.’

Although Baldoni said he was not going to address all aspects of the legal battle in his statement, he hinted that there would be more messages to come.  

‘It just felt like every time we went to make a video like this where we wanted to speak, something was telling us not to. It just didn’t feel like the right time,’ he said.

‘And we were talking about it and feeling into it and praying about it –’ he added as Emily finished his sentence: ‘– and this feels like the moment.’

‘So here we are,’ Justin added as he cracked a smile. 

‘There is so much to say, and it makes it hard to speak,’ Emily continued. ‘It makes it hard to figure out what is right for us, for this specific moment.’

‘And we’re not gonna say it all,’ Justin added.

‘But what does feel important is that we can genuinely say that we are sitting here today feeling immense gratitude for so many things and so many people and so many things that have happened to us,’ his wife said.

‘Gratitude has saved us,’ Justin concurred. 

But Emily steered their video away from their gratitude as she appeared to allude to her husband’s bruising legal battle with Lively. 

‘I also feel that it’s important as we say that, in that gratitude, it doesn’t negate the injustice and the pain that we have also felt in the last few years,’ she said while adopting a stern expression.

‘And we’ve had to wrestle with so many things and try to understand things like how could something like this even happen,’ Emily continued. ‘Let alone disguise as a fight for women [sic]. So much to unpack.

'And the truth is – reality is, is that there's been a lot of trauma for us to move through as a family,' Emily said, while Justin added, 'We don't even know this is the right thing to say, but we just know we need to share something'

‘And the truth is – reality is, is that there’s been a lot of trauma for us to move through as a family,’ she said somberly. ‘Which also makes it hard to speak.’

Baldoni gazed down as he took over.

‘We don’t even know this is the right thing to say, but we just know we need to share something,’ he said.

Emily then looked into the cameras to declare, ‘The truth, and the facts, have spoken for themselves.’ 

She turned to look affectionately at her husband before adding, ‘And here we are.’ ‘

Emily noted that there was ‘so much more to say,’ while Justin interjected, ‘And we will say it.’

She added, ‘That time will come. But for now, we are going to focus on continuing the healing and hanging out with our kiddos and enjoying life.’
