A Timeline of the Legal Drama
The legal fallout between Baldoni and Lively has been escalating since their work together on the much-anticipated “It Ends With Us” adaptation.

He notably filed a defamation lawsuit against The New York Times, accusing the publication of colluding with Lively to damage his reputation. The actor-director also took legal action against Lively and her husband, Ryan Reynolds, alleging that the Hollywood power couple launched their own smear campaign against him.
