Bart Johnson shared a passionate defense of her sister-in-law in the comments section of A New York Times Instagram post detailing the case and its own investigation into the behind-the-scenes turmoil.
“Her complaints were made during filming,” the statement said. High school musical alum, who is married to Blake's sister Robyn, wrote. “Recorded. Long before the public conflict. Actors unfollowed him for some reason. Read this article before spewing your ignorance. His PR team was excellent. Big and disgusting but very effective. Read the article, their text message exchanges and his PR campaign strategy to bury him by any means necessary No one is without flaws But the public let themselves be played.
He later added on of Baldoni, “He's a fraud. He puts on the 'costume' of a hero, man bun and all. He's used every catchphrase and buzzword for his podcasts. None of it is authentic. It's theater. And everyone fell in love. For years, rewatch his videos with a more critical eye and watch him compliment and congratulate himself with false humility and self-deprecation.
