Blake Lively’s Slim Return to Instagram Amidst Legal Drama with Justin Baldoni
BLAKE LIVELY'S WAR WITH JUSTIN BALDONI HEATS UP: BEVY OF NEW SCANDALS ROCK THE SET OF IT ENDS WITH US
Blake Lively is making headlines once again, this time for her svelte physique and scorching hot fashion sense. But beneath the glamour lies a web of intrigue and drama that's got everyone talking. The 38-year-old actress has been locked in a bitter legal battle with her co-star and director Justin Baldoni over their romantic drama It Ends With Us. And it seems things are about to get even uglier.
Just this week, Lively shared some stunning snaps on Instagram from an event dedicated to her beverage brands Betty Buzz and Betty Booze. The Gossip Girl alum looked absolutely radiant in a show-stopping red ensemble from Elie Saab, complete with a plunging peplum top and matching trousers adorned with floral cutouts. Her long blonde locks cascaded down her back in effortless waves, while she paired the look with closed-toed, red Chanel pumps that left us breathless.
But it's not just Lively's fashion sense that's making headlines - her fit physique has also been getting attention from fans and fitness enthusiasts alike. According to longtime trainer Don Saladino, Lively's secret to staying in shape lies in her commitment to consistency. "She's understanding the importance of trying to be consistent," he revealed in a past interview with E! News. "Just because she's a celebrity doesn't mean that her tissue or muscle or bones are any different. She's a human being."
Meanwhile, Lively's co-star and director Justin Baldoni has been busy ramping up his legal team amid the ongoing courtroom clash with Lively. Sources close to the production revealed that Baldoni has hired high-profile lawyer Alexandra Shapiro, who has represented clients like Sean 'Diddy' Combs and Sam Bankman-Fried in the past.
But things are about to get even more interesting - another individual has come forward with claims of harassment against Baldoni, according to newly filed court documents obtained by The Scholarly Note. In a sworn declaration, the accuser alleged that they endured "repeated, negative interactions" with Baldoni and his associates, including verbal abuse from the actor himself.
The unnamed person claimed that Baldoni was not permitted on set during the majority of production due to these experiences, and even requested that he be kept out of marketing and public relations efforts. A source close to the production told TMZ that the accuser is "likely to testify against Justin in Lively's trial".
As if things weren't dramatic enough already, it seems that this latest development is only the tip of the iceberg. Insiders claim that Baldoni's business partner Steve Sarowitz has been involved in some shady dealings, with one source alleging that he contacted the accuser's assistant to arrange a meeting - but no specific topic was mentioned.
Lively, meanwhile, seems to be taking it all in stride. The actress took to Instagram to share a series of snaps from her fun trip to Universal Studios with her lookalike niece Kate Johnson. The two posed with Spongebob Squarepants characters Patrick and Squidward, and even snapped a few selfies together.
But amidst all the glamour and excitement, one thing is clear: Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni's war is far from over. Stay tuned for more updates on this juicy drama!
