Blake Lively was once one of showbiz’s most celebrated stars, thanks to her role as Serena van der Woodsen in Gossip Girl, as well as her off-screen persona, which fans praised for being witty and humorous.
However, public sentiment toward her shifted after she sued It Ends With Us co-star and director Justin Baldoni, alleging he made unwanted s**ual advances and fostered a hostile work environment.
As part of the evidence presented by Baldoni, Lively was shown taking both creative and public control of the film alongside her famous husband, Ryan Reynolds, and friend Taylor Swift. Many considered the move unfair.
