Blake Lively's legal war with Justin Baldoni over It Ends With Us may have ended in a New York courtroom, but the 38‑year‑old actor now faces a new problem: he is legally free to speak about the case, with no gag order or non‑disclosure agreement in place, according to his lawyer and multiple insider accounts.
For context, Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni had been locked in a high‑profile dispute linked to their collaboration on the film adaptation of It Ends With Us. The row, which spiralled into a civil battle over reputation and money, threatened to go to trial as both sides traded allegations through lawyers and in the press. They ultimately reached a settlement shortly before a jury was due to be selected, avoiding what could have been an explosive courtroom showdown.
