Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni Settle Epic ‘It Ends With Us’ Sex Harassment Lawsuit

It ends with a settlement.

After a year and a half of bitter feuding in court and in the press, Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni have resolved their legal differences two weeks ahead of a federal trial.

Lively had accused Baldoni of sexual harassment on set of their 2024 film, “It Ends With Us.” She also alleged that when she raised complaints about it, he and his army of publicists engaged in a digital smear campaign to retaliate.

In a carefully crafted joint statement released on Monday, the parties expressed their feelings about moving on.

“The end product – the movie ‘It Ends With Us’ – is a source of pride to all of us who worked to bring it to life. Raising awareness, and making a meaningful impact in the lives of domestic violence survivors – and all survivors – is a goal that we stand behind. We acknowledge the process presented challenges and recognize concerns raised by Ms. Lively deserved to be heard. We remain firmly committed to workplaces free of improprieties and unproductive environments. It is our sincere hope that this brings closure and allows all involved to move forward constructively and in peace, including a respectful environment online.”

More to come…
