Blake Lively Has Dropped Key Claims in Her Legal Case Against Justin Baldoni

Blake Lively attends the "It Ends With Us" photocall at IET Building: Savoy Place on August 08, 2024 in London, England.

Blake Lively has withdrawn some of the original claims she made in her lawsuit against Justin Baldoni. As reported by People, the Gossip Girl star asked for the claims "intentional infliction of emotional distress" and "negligent infliction of emotional distress" to be dismissed from the ongoing legal case. The request was made on 2nd June 2025.

A lawyer for Justin, Kevin Fritz, has claimed that the move was a way for Blake to refuse authorised access to her therapy notes and other medical information as part of the court case. Justin's team requested this information to help build their defence against claims of emotional distress.
