Blake Lively's lawyers are fueling a feud with a claim of victory after the settlement of the 'It Ends With Us' legal dispute. The Associated Press reported on May 7, 2026, that the actress's legal team issued statements asserting a win in the case, which involved co-star Justin Baldoni.
Settlement Details
The settlement, reached earlier this week, resolved a legal conflict that had been brewing for months. While specific terms remain confidential, Lively's representatives emphasized that the outcome favored their client. Baldoni's camp has not publicly responded.
Background of the Feud
The dispute originated during the production of 'It Ends With Us,' where creative differences and personal tensions reportedly escalated. Legal filings hinted at disagreements over contractual obligations and on-set conduct.
Industry insiders note that such post-settlement statements are unusual and may signal ongoing animosity between the parties. The film, based on Colleen Hoover's bestselling novel, was a box office success despite the behind-the-scenes drama.
Neither Lively nor Baldoni have personally commented on the settlement or the lawyers' claims.
