Justin Baldoni Apologizes To His Wife While Saying Wedding Vows

A trailer of Baldoni and his wife Emily's wedding was posted on YouTube on November 13, 2013. However, the video regained prominence amid Blake Lively's lawsuit against her "It Ends With Us" costar.

Part of the resurfaced clip showed Baldoni saying his vows to Emily. He began with an apology, saying per Page Six, "I want to start off my vows to you with an apology. 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. And everything I've ever brought to this relationship that hasn't been pure."

Baldoni added, "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 honor you and I will respect you."

While saying her vows, Emily resolved to "stand strong" by her husband's side as she was grateful to have a man like him "who will go above and beyond to comfort a friend or to simply make somebody feel loved."

She vowed to stand firmly by Baldoni's side before adding that she was "deeply appreciative to have a man who inspires me and the people around him to live life more fully."

Following their exchange of vows, Baldoni said, "Let's jump in together forever," after which they high-fived each other.

Justin Baldoni Discusses Porn Addiction In Resurfaced Interview

The resurfaced video of Baldoni's wedding apology follows an old interview of him that re-emerged following Lively's legal complaint.

In July 2021, Baldoni was a guest on Sarah Grynberg's "A Life of Greatness" podcast and shared candid details about his past addiction to porn. The filmmaker revealed that he was introduced to pornography at 10 before adding that he found solace in it.

He shared that he turned to porn for "refuge" when he was alone, abandoned, or hurt and described it as a source of "dopamine rush."

Baldoni also said, "I trained my brain to deal with pain with the dopamine hit. ... But it doesn't mean that I'm not using something in an unhealthy way."

He revealed how he went back to looking at pictures and videos of naked women in moments when he felt necessarily bad about himself. Baldoni added, "I knew it was an issue for me when I would tell myself that I don't want to do that."

Blake Lively's Sexual Harassment Complaint Against Baldoni

Lively claimed Baldoni engaged in sexual misconduct during filming, causing her to call for a meeting to express her concerns. She claimed that she made several demands at the meeting, which Baldoni and his production company agreed to.

Some of the 37-year-old actress's demands included "No more showing nude videos or images of women to her, no more mention of Baldoni's alleged previous pornography addiction, and no more discussions about sexual conquests in front of her and others."

Lively also claimed that Baldoni and his team spearheaded a smear campaign against her following the meeting. However, she hoped that her lawsuit would help reveal sinister retaliatory tactics aimed at harming people and help protect others who may be targeted.

Baldoni responded to Lively's lawsuit via a statement from his lawyer, Bryan Freedman, who labeled the actress's claims as "false, outrageous, and intentionally salacious, with an intent to publicly hurt." Freedman also claimed Lively filed the lawsuit to "fix her negative reputation."

Baldoni And Emily's Marriage

Justin Baldoni dated Emily, a Swedish actress, for two years before they married in July 2013 in Corona, California. The couple has two children: a daughter named Maiya and a son named Maxwell.

Baldoni's Instagram page is littered with posts celebrating his and Emily's love and beautiful moments. On September 15, he shared several photos from their family vacation at The Ritz-Carlton, Aruba. One picture showed Baldoni and Emily smiling as they posed for a selfie while immersed in water.

On August 5, Baldoni paid tribute to his wife on her 40th birthday. He wrote, "I am in awe of this woman. Her strength. Her bravery. Her groundedness. Her Magic. Her love."

He concluded, "The magic follows you wherever you go. I'm grateful I get to join you and learn from you on this journey."
