The dispute began in December 2024 after Lively filed a complaint accusing Baldoni of sexually harassing her while filming the feature film based on the novel by Colleen Hoover.
She also alleged that he attempted to damage her public reputation as part of what she claimed was a coordinated defamation effort, citing details of a New York Times report, ‘We can bury anyone’: Inside a Hollywood smear machine.
Baldoni denied the allegations and responded with a separate lawsuit seeking $400 million in damages against Lively, Reynolds and their public relations team.
