Blake Lively has made a bold move in response to her ‘It Ends With Us’ costar Justin Baldoni’s defamation lawsuit. The actress has filed a motion to dismiss the lawsuit, which also named her husband Ryan Reynolds and others. Lively is invoking a California law that protects individuals who report sexual misconduct, emphasizing the importance of standing up against such behavior.
This development comes shortly after Reynolds filed a motion in a New York court seeking to be removed from the lawsuit. In the filing obtained by E! News, Reynolds’ team refuted Baldoni’s defamation allegation against him. The legal battle between the parties seems to be intensifying as they each fight to protect their reputation and integrity.
It is clear that Lively is taking a strong stance against what she deems as a “vengeful” countersuit by Baldoni. The actress is not backing down and is using legal measures to defend herself, Reynolds, and the others named in the lawsuit. This latest twist in the case showcases the complexities of Hollywood relationships and the high stakes involved in protecting one’s image in the industry.
As the drama continues to unfold, fans and onlookers will undoubtedly be keeping a close eye on how this legal battle plays out. Stay tuned for more updates on this ongoing story as it develops.

She's dirty!!
Can this woman sit down? The legal system doesn’t exist for you.
She is nothing.
But a liar
Justin Baldoni owned the book rights to 2nd book. Only way to remove his rights is due to S Harass so Snake LIEvly and LIEan claim SH so they can get the rights-Extortion motive! @E!News
Snake LIEvly lawsuit was the 1 rambling‼️ Read it‼️ "Accuse The other side that of which you are guilty"- Joseph Goebbels Na Zi Propaganda Minister @E!News
Can he really have to pay her legal fees for sticking up for his rights of being called a predator by her husband? I am hoping CA will not grant her anything.
I trust Justin!💯
Ummm didn’t SHE file a lawsuit against him and try to ruin his reputation? What a total narcissist. Over Blake and Ryan Reynolds
Imagine spending millions $$ for top tier lawyers to advise you the following: "Step 1 the NYT will motion to dismiss..step 2 Ryan will motion to dismiss…step 3 Blake will file a motion to dismiss. You can't be counter sued if there's no party left to sue! Am I right?" 🤡
Lively will not be silenced for speaking up against SA
That woman doesn't get tired 😮
Women are not ALWAYS victims of SA. Some women are unfortunately abusers / manipulators too. Always look at evidences in any reported SA cases… Justice does not only serve women but all human beings (men and women).
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Pathetic!!!!!!!
It doesn't work that way, Blake!
Fake Lively needs to disappear.
Go Justin 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Justin met a female predator & was SH’d
She lied in the filling so there are issues with that. You can’t lie! He has evidence they dint
Team Justin!!
Ha! Of course she did!
Blake and Ryan are evil
Lively and Reynolds will pay for this, one way or another
Blake is learning the hard way. Shes going down
Her career is OVER
She filed in CA but the alleged abuse didn’t take place in CA so wouldn’t that be void?
You all are the worst kind of bigots and bullies. You call yourself a news channel. You are true garbage for pandering to Lively Reynolds. True bullies!…and E! you should know it’s not being “vengeful “ to protect one’s image and family. This is a man’s life and unfortunately because of the me too movement some women have taken to slandering me, just because they can..this is not a game…it’s a shameful power move by narcissistic bullies on a man who just wanted to make a movie….E! DO BETTER!
Blake LIED 😡
Team Baldoni. I will DEFINITELY not be watching ANYTHING these people star in.
Obviously Ryan is jealous of Justin snd its hilarious.. Ryan is a bitc#
Team Baldoni
