Justin Baldoni is surrounding himself with family amid reports of drama with the cast of his latest film, It Ends with Us.

On Thursday, Aug. 22, the movie director and actor, 40, spent the day at Universal Studios Hollywood with his wife, Emily Baldoni, their 9-year-old daughter Maiya, and their 6-year-old son Maxwell.

The family of four was all smiles as they posed for various photos in front of the theme park's iconic tall white entrance gate.

He ended the romantic post by writing, "Happy 11 years my love." Earlier this month, Emily accompanied Justin to the New York City premiere of It Ends with Us.

Rumors of a rift between the cast grew stronger after the premiere when fans noticed that Justin's costar, Blake Lively, appeared to pose alongside all of their main castmates except him.

Despite being the director, he didn’t introduce the film before the screening with Lively and author Colleen Hoover, who wrote the book on which the film is based.

While Baldoni has been absent from most grouped promotional appearances, he's spoken highly of his costars during solo interviews.

Although none of the cast members have spoken out about the alleged rift, Baldoni has hired crisis public relations manager Melissa Nathan of The Agency Group, a source familiar with the matter told PEOPLE this month. A set source also told PEOPLE that "all is not what it seems."
