Who is Justin Baldoni’s wife Emily and do the pair have kids? Inside the It Ends With Us actor’s relationship
JUSTIN Baldoni has hit the headlines after being sued by his It Ends With Us co-star, Blake Lively.
The Gossip Girl alum has issued a lawsuit for sexual harassment, claiming Justin’s actions had caused “severe emotional distress.”
Conman actor Justin, 40, has been accused of showing Blake naked videos and images of other women as well as making references about his alleged previous porn addiction, according to documents seen by TMZ.
The Hollywood stars appeared in the adaptation of the best-selling Coleen Hoover novel of the same name in August, though the film’s release was marred by a string of alleged bust-ups on set.
In a bombshell sexual harassment lawsuit, Blake, 37, has accused Justin of a smear campaign to ‘destroy’ her reputation – allegations which he has denied.
Yet while the furore plays out – Justin will no doubt be attempting to protect his family from the backlash. Yet who is his wife Emily? And do they have kids?
Who is Justin Baldoni’s wife Emily?
Emily Baldoni, 40, is a Swedish-born actress.
It has been reported the pair had their first date at Los Angeles’ Blu Jam Cafe back in 2011.
The Uppsala native married Justin in 2013 at a ceremony in California, and proudly states her marital status on her Instagram page.
Emily previously spoke out on their nuptials and told wedding website Style Me Pretty: “Our wedding day was on July 27, 2013, a beautiful summer’s day and evening at our dear friend’s stunning Corona, CA property.
“My mother-in-law, Sharon, did all the decorating and turned the place into a Midsummer Night’s Dream, exactly what I had hoped for.
“She put so much love in all the details, you could feel the magic of it all.”
What does Justin Baldoni’s wife Emily do?
Like Justin, she is a screen star, and has featured on US sitcom How I Met Your Mother.
She played a leading role in 2013 movie Coherence – during the year the pair wed – and has also starred in 2009 flick Ghosts.
Emily also collaborated with her spouse in Five Feet Apart, a 2019 drama where Justin acted as director.
And she also played Dr Julie in It Ends With Us – the movie on which Blake’s lawsuit is centred.
Prior to marrying Justin, Emily went under the name Emily Foxler, an adapted version of her birth name, Emily Malou.
Do Justin and Emily have any kids?
Yes, the pair share two kids – often documenting their family life on Instagram.
Emily gave birth to eldest daughter Maiya Grace in 2015, before welcoming son Maxwell Roland-Samuel two years later.
They announced both their pregnancies on YouTube.
Meanwhile, Emily has been frank in addressing motherhood on her Instagram page.
Alongside a snap showing Justin being piled on by their kids, she wrote: “There are days when this is the best,” before adding some were “really hard.”
Jane The Virgin star Justin recently told how their kids had made their acting debut in It Ends With Us.
He told E! News: “They’re in the final scene in the farmer’s market.
“There are two kids that are running into the farmer’s market and that was their kind of debut—I said, ‘Action,’ and then they ran off.”
