Justin Baldoni issues apology to his wife on camera

Embattled actor-director Justin Baldoni started his wedding vows with a public apology to his new wife, resurfaced video reveals.

A video of Justin Baldoni’s wedding apology to his wife, Emily Baldoni, has resurfaced after Blake Lively filed a sexual harassment complaint against him.

“I want to start off my vows to you with an apology,” the director, 40, told the bride at the altar during their July 2013 nuptials in Corona, California, per a clip shared on YouTube.

“I’m sorry for all my faults, my shortcomings, for my insecurities and my ego and for everything that I’ve ever done or said that’s hurt you,” he added. “And everything I’ve ever brought to this relationship that hasn’t been pure.”

“But with that apology also comes a promise. Emily, for the rest of my life, I will cherish you, I will appreciate you, I will listen to you, I will laugh with you, I will take care of you, I will honour you and I will respect you.”

He opened his vows with a lengthy apology.

Emily, for her part, said she would “stand strong” by Justin’s side because she’s “grateful to have a man who will go above and beyond to comfort a friend or to simply make somebody feel loved.”

She added, “I will stand firm by your side, deeply appreciative to have a man who inspires me and the people around him to live life more fully.”

After the duo exchanged vows, Justin said, “Let’s jump in together forever,” before they gave each other a high five.

While it’s unknown what “faults” and “shortcomings” Baldoni was referring to, the video has resurfaced amid his legal drama with Lively.

Lively, 37, filed a legal complaint against Justin, accusing him of sexual harassment and retaliation while working on their 2024 hit film, It Ends With Us.

In the documents, Lively alleged Justin made sexual and other inappropriate comments toward her during the filming of their movie and used a crisis PR expert to launch a smear campaign against her.

The mother of four alleged in the complaint that there had to be an “all-hands” meeting — which included the presence of her husband, Ryan Reynolds — about the Man Enough: Undefining My Masculinity author’s inappropriate behaviour.

In response to the complaint, Justin’s lawyer, Bryan Freedman, denied the claims in a statement to Page Six, saying, “These claims are completely false, outrageous and intentionally salacious with an intent to publicly hurt and rehash a narrative in the media.”

As a result of the complaint, the actor and director was dropped by his talent agency over the weekend.

Justin and Emily met in 2011 and tied the knot two years later. They share two children: daughter Maiya and son Maxwell, whom they welcomed in June 2015 and October 2017, respectively.
