Part 4/6:
In addition to the lawsuit from Wallace, Lively is already embroiled in litigation initiated by Baldoni himself. Just weeks ago, Baldoni counter-sued Lively, her husband Ryan Reynolds, and their publicist for a staggering $400 million. Baldoni's suit claims that Lively has attempted to paint him as the "real-life villain" of her story and alleges that her accusations of sexual harassment are fabricated.
This counterclaim has further complicated the legal landscape, and the stakes are notably high. With a trial date set for March 2026, both parties are currently engaged in the discovery process, which involves the compilation of evidence and exchange of information relevant to the case.
