- Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni have settled their highly publicized legal dispute over accusations of sexual harassment and an alleged smear campaign during the production of their 2024 film, "It Ends With Us."
- Reports indicate that no money was exchanged between Lively and Baldoni as part of the settlement, although their legal teams reportedly earned a combined $60 million from the proceedings.
- The settlement was reached two weeks before the case was scheduled to go to trial, which could have resulted in substantial legal fees and further image-damaging revelations for both parties.
- Lively had initially sued Baldoni in January 2025, accusing him of conspiring to damage her reputation after she privately alleged sexual harassment on the movie set, claims Baldoni consistently denied.
- Despite the settlement, Lively still has a pending motion for attorneys’ fees and damages connected to Baldoni’s previously dismissed defamation suit against her.
