Justin Baldoni told Blake Lively he was circumcised during a personal conversation.
Details of their conversation that took place at Lively’s New York City home back in December 2022 — while she was still pregnant with her now-2-year-old son, Olin — have come to light in an October deposition obtained by Page Six on Thursday.
In what started as a professional conversation between the two — as Baldoni was trying to convince her to play the role of Lily in “It Ends With Us” — quickly turned too close for comfort when he started talking about his genitalia.
Baldoni, 41, recalled their discussion about whether or not Lively’s son would be circumcised once born.
The “Gossip Girl” alum’s attorney, Michael J. Gottlieb, asked in the court documents filed on Dec. 4, “Among other things, you discussed whether Ms. Lively’s baby would be circumcised, right?”
Baldoni responded, “Yes.”
Gottlieb then inquired, “Did you at any point share with Ms. Lively whether you were circumcised?” Baldoni replied, “Yes.”
However, when Gottlieb questioned the producer about why he decided to share such an intimate detail about himself, he didn’t give a clear answer and admitted that Lively had not “directly” asked him whether or not he had gotten the procedure.
Baldoni also insisted that him and Lively, 38, were not alone during the conversation as her husband, Ryan Reynolds, “was in and out of the conversation” and there were other “people all around” including, two nannies, a housekeeper and multiple assistants present.
When asked if he has ever shared his circumcision with other work colleagues, he responded, “I don’t talk about my genitalia, so no.”
Reps for Baldoni were not immediately available to Page Six for comment.
Lively and Baldoni began filming “It Ends With Us,” based off of Colleen Hoover’s bestselling novel of the same name, in 2023, where they played love interests.
After months of feud rumors between the co-stars, Lively filed a complaint with the California Civil Rights Department against Baldoni in December 2024, followed by her official lawsuit later that same month.
Baldoni countersued Lively and Reynolds in January for $400 million, but the lawsuit was thrown out over the summer, with the case officially closed in October.
Last month, Baldoni asked the judge to toss Lively’s $161 million lawsuit against him, arguing that she cannot prove her sexual harassment, retaliation, failure to investigate, aiding and abetting, defamation and false light and conspiracy claims.
However, in her latest filing, Lively insists she deserves her “day in court.”
