Blake Lively Emerges Victorious in It Ends With Us Settlement

Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni settled their long-running It Ends With Us lawsuit two weeks before trial; terms were not disclosed, but Lively’s side called the agreement a resounding victory, and she’s still pursuing legal fees and other damages under California Civil Code 47.1 that could reach millions. Even as the settlement progresses, both stars appeared to celebrate—Lively at the Met Gala after the news and Baldoni photographed with his wife—though the case isn’t fully closed and related fee disputes may continue.
