Beckinsale—who
was
married
to
director
Len
Wiseman
from
2004
to
2019—believes
that
many
women
share
similar
experiences,
which
she
said
inspired
her
to
speak
out.
“This
has
been
going
on
forever.
I’ve
got
about
47
million
stories
similar
to
this,”
she
added. “On
the
whole,
you’re
f–ked.
If
you
mention
it,
you’re
f–ked.
It’s
supposed
to
be
that
you
absorb
it,
and
somehow,
then
you’re
the
homie.
That’s
got
to
stop.”
And
while
she
doesn’t
know
Lively
or
Baldoni
personally,
Beckinsale
said
she
was “grateful”
to
the
Gossip
Girl
actress
for “highlighting
the
fact
that
this
is
not
an
archaic
problem
that
no
one’s
facing”
by
filing
a
complaint
against
Baldoni
earlier
this
month.
According
to
the
filing
obtained
by
E!
News,
Lively
accused
the
director
and
star
of
showing
her
nude
videos
of
women,
discussing
his
alleged “pornography
addiction”
and “sexual
conquests,”
as
well
as
creating
a
campaign
to “destroy”
her
reputation.
Baldoni’s
attorney
has
called
her
allegations “false,
outrageous
and
intentionally
salacious
with
an
intent
to
publicly
hurt.”
