Newly unsealed court filings have shifted the spotlight in Blake Lively's case against director Justin Baldoni from on-set tensions to the extraordinary financial fallout she claims to have suffered — damages her lawyers now value at more than £121.8 million ($161 million), with a request for punitive awards that could triple that figure.
The documents, part of Lively's sexual harassment and retaliation lawsuit, outline a sweeping financial collapse that her team attributes to the controversy. According to a detailed disclosure submitted on 5 November, Lively alleges she has lost tens of millions in acting, producing, endorsement, and speaking-fee income, alongside major hits to her business ventures.
