Bethenny Frankel opened up about her experience at the premiere of It Ends With Us as the movie’s stars Justin Baldoni and Blake Lively sling accusations in competing lawsuits.

The 37-year-old actress accused the 40-year-old actor/director of sexual harassment and attempts to “destroy” her reputation in a lawsuit filed in late December. Justin responded by suing The New York Times for their report on the lawsuit. His lawyer confirmed that he is also preparing to sue Blake.

As rumors that the pair feuded on set began to heat up, Blake and Justin were not photographed together during the movie’s August premiere in New York City. Bethenny was one of the guests in attendance. She described the experience in a video on social media.

Taking to TikTok, Bethenny said that she had “the craziest It Ends With Us premiere story that I totally forgot about, and I’m putting the pieces together now.”

She added that she thought it was weird from the very beginning but opted out of bringing it up earlier out of fears of being “cancelled.”

Bethenny explained that she walked the red carpet at the event and was then told that there would be an hour before the premiere started. She said that this was not something that she had experienced.

She and her friend decided to go and get drinks in the downtime. On the way out, Bethenny ran into someone on Blake‘s team and had a slightly chilly experience.

“They’re a little distant and a little icy to me,” she recalled. “Just, there’s something that I’m like, ‘Wow, Ok.’ And in other circumstances, this person is not this way and it just, it was slightly off-putting.”

Upon returning to the premiere, Bethenny said that she ran into Anna Wintour. However, she wound up going to watch the movie in a different theater than the Vogue editor.

“Usually, not usually… Always, unless it’s a weird different screening, the premiere is in one giant theater,” she said, noting that the only exception would be “an overflow theater.”

Bethenny added that she was directed to her seat and felt like “everybody was separated” and “the vibe was off.” She ultimately decided to leave before the movie ended.

“I didn’t tell anybody because I thought I would be canceled if we left,” she said, saying, “Something was definitely awry from the jump, and it was palpable.”

Her ultimate thoughts on the experience: “Something was f-cked.”

Alleged audio of Justin speaking about his experience at the premiere recently surfaced.

The draft is three weeks away now. GM Ryan Poles and head coach Ben Johnson have pieced together an off-season that is earning widespread praise across the league. The question is whether they can stick the landing with their 1st round pick in the draft. Current projections have the top three picks likely being a mix of Cam Ward, Travis Hunter, and Abdul Carter. After that, it gets tricky. People in Chicago want to know where running back Ashton Jeanty will end once the dust settles.

Widespread belief has been that the Las Vegas Raiders are the heavy favorites to take him at 6th overall, with New Orleans at #9 also being a possibility. It makes sense. Las Vegas’ best option right now is a 33-year-old Raheem Mostert. New Orleans knows Alvin Kamara turns 30 in July. Both teams need to think about the future at that position. Both have head coaches who like to run the ball. One thing is clear. A source told SM that those around the league believe one thing is certain.

“He likely won’t get passed Chicago if he falls that far.”

Ashton Jeanty is a strong probability for the Bears.

Whispers from Halas Hall indicate they love the Boise State star. It isn’t hard to see why. He nearly broke Barry Sanders’ single-season rushing record in 2024, nearly winning the Heisman in the process. The guy carried his team to the college football playoffs. He’s built like a brick house with power, speed, contact balance, and vision. There aren’t any truly glaring weaknesses in his game. He’s earned comparisons to the likes of LaDainian Tomlinson and Marshawn Lynch. The Bears haven’t had a back of that caliber since Matt Forte.

Try to imagine what this offense could look like with Ashton Jeanty, Rome Odunze, D.J. Moore, and Cole Kmet all as options for quarterback Caleb Williams. Throw all of it into Johnson’s offense, and you can understand why some people around the league aren’t wild about the idea. They are quietly hoping Jeanty goes somewhere else. One thing is certain. If he gets past the Raiders, the noise will get loud in a hurry. It would mark the first time in 20 years the Bears have taken a running back in the 1st round.
