The legal complaint details several disturbing incidents. For instance, Baldoni allegedly showed nude videos or images of women to Lively and her employees without their consent. He also made inappropriate comments about his own and others' genitalia, and discussed his and Heath's previous pornography addictions in front of her. Additionally, Baldoni allegedly added graphic sexual content to the film without Lively's knowledge or consent, including an on-camera orgasm scene and a birthing scene where Lively was partially nude without a closed set.

The lawsuit also accuses Baldoni of orchestrating a smear campaign against Lively to damage her reputation. Text messages obtained as part of the complaint reportedly show Baldoni and his team discussing plans to "bury" Lively online and using social media to spread negative information about her. Baldoni's lawyer, Bryan Freedman, has denied these claims, calling them "categorically false" and accusing Lively of attempting to fix her negative reputation.
