The film was in third place over the weekend after three weeks in theaters with a payday of $11.85 million. The drama has made more than $242.6 million globally. 

Many fans agreed with Robyn’s assessment of the situation and her description of her baby sister. 

‘Blake is a lovely human being!! I hope she knows that the multitudes of people who love her is so much greater than the negative voices. Happy birthday Blake!!’ wrote one fan.

‘Thank you for this,’ replied Robyn, who also had a role in It Ends With Us.

‘Finally a post about Blake I can get behind!,’ commented another follower.
