Blake Lively, who has remained relatively quiet about her ongoing legal dispute with 'It Ends With Us' co-star and director Justin Baldoni, recently opened up about the emotional toll the past year has taken on her. While promoting her upcoming film 'Another Simple Favor,' the actress reflected on her personal journey by describing the past year as one of both triumph and deep struggle.
Am ‘intense’ chapter of personal and professional challenges
Without directly naming Baldoni, Lively randomly acknowledged the emotional weight she’s been carrying. “This year has brought me the highest highs and the lowest lows of my life,” she revealed during her appearance on 'Late Night with Seth Meyers.' Although the comment didn’t delve into specifics, fans and media quickly connected the dots to the very public lawsuit Lively filed against Baldoni in 2024.
According to a report by Free Press Journal, the ongoing tension between the two actors has been widely discussed in entertainment circles, though both parties have remained tight-lipped in public.
Finding strength in motherhood and solidarity
Despite the strain, Lively expressed immense gratitude for her family, especially her four children - James, Inez, Betty and Olin who are calling them her “lifeline.” She emphasized that they’ve been her greatest source of strength and grounding during these emotionally exhausting times.
Lively also voiced her concern about the culture of silence that often surrounds women’s struggles. “I see so many women afraid to speak… and fear is by design. That’s what keeps us quiet,” she said. Her words echoed the sentiment of standing in solidarity with women who don’t have the platform to speak out, giving credit to those who’ve inspired her to stand strong.
Speaking up for something bigger
Blake shared that her fight isn’t just about personal justice but creating safer spaces for women and girls everywhere. “It’s a pretty simple thing,” she added, underscoring how personal experiences can often reflect broader societal issues.
As the legal situation with Baldoni remains unresolved, Lively’s willingness to hint at her truth through grace and resolve continues to resonate with fans and advocates alike.
