Blake Lively Seeks Court Order to Obtain Full Birth Video in Sexual Harassment Lawsuit

Blake Lively has filed motions in her ongoing sexual harassment lawsuit against producer Jamey Heath, demanding the full release of a graphic home-birth video of Heath's wife that was shown to her on the set of the film It Ends With Us. Lively alleges that Heath showed her the video without consent or warning, describing the footage as inappropriate and pornographic, and claims that Heath has only provided a short three-minute clip despite a court order to submit the entire recording. Her legal team argues that withholding the full video has prevented thorough questioning of Heath during depositions and that his narrow interpretation of the court order is improper. Heath and director Justin Baldoni, co-producers of the film, maintain the footage was intended as a creative reference for a birthing scene and deny any misconduct, with countersuits having been dismissed. The dispute has intensified legal proceedings, with Lively seeking court sanctions to compel Heath to comply, as the trial is scheduled for March 2026. This case highlights tensions over professional boundaries and artistic control within Wayfarer Studios, co-founded by Heath and Baldoni.
