Blake Lively faces unfavourable situation in legal feud with Justin Baldoni

Blake Lively's on-going legal fight against her It Ends with Us costar, Justin Baldoni has taken a dark turn.

The 37-year-old actress has been slammed with new allegations after YouTuber named Kassidy O'Connell hit back at the actress' subpoena, with a formal complaint to the California State Bar.

For the unversed, the Gossip Girl alum recently subpoenaed Google for access to financial records, subscriber data, and contact information of content creators as part of her ongoing legal battle with her It Ends with Us costar.

Now reacting to Lively’s notice, the content creator, as reported by Daily Mail, via an 11-page motion claimed that the only money she's received is from Google AdSense, featuring none other than the actress' husband, Ryan Reynolds.

“Mint Mobile often runs ads on my channel featuring their spokesperson, Ryan Reynolds,” she stated, adding, “So if I've been paid directly or indirectly by anyone involved in this case, it's former party, Ryan Reynolds.”

The YouTuber branded the Another Simple Favor actress’ legal action “invasive” and “unnecessary”, noting that it was “desperate and paranoid” in language echoed throughout her filing.

The subpoena is part of Lively’s on-going legal battle against Baldoni in which she claimed that the 41-year-old actor paid influencers to post critical content about her following the release of the movie based on Coleen Hoover's domestic abuse novel.

It is worth mentioning here that the deposition date for Blake Lively will be held on July 31, 2025.
