As Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni’s legal troubles, here’s a look at their kissing scandal. As fans must already know, the actor has already mentioned in his filing that kissing his It Ends with Us co-star is “the last thing I want to do.” But fans pointed out that soon after that, Leslie Sloan and Lively apparently pulled off a hilarious gig.
As shared by @thebushbirds on X, after Baldoni made that comment about Lively, Sloan and the Gossip Girl actress “put a story out about Blake kissing people” (check out the story on Looper, published June 19, 2024, and this story from Looper, published November 17, 2025).

For those who might not know, in Exhibit 81 of his filing, Baldoni specifically mentioned a note about “intimacy”, in which he claimed that Lively reportedly changed the direction of yet another scene in It Ends with Us. In this, he wrote, in one line (see the full document here):
She has removed kissing – which is fine in the end, the last thing I want to do is kiss this woman.
At the same time, he also went on to mention how Lively’s taking hold of this scene brought him to the point where he was “not sure what to do on this scene.” But while that’s that, the actress is currently facing backlash from fans for this reported move of hers.

To say the least, fans are having the time of their lives as they troll the actress over this embarrassing stunt. All in all, taking to X, here’s what they have to say:
Ps a little bit funny they are reminding people Lively kissed her future but then married husband much like other costars? When stupid people are so busy nuh-uhing, they embarrass themselves in other more meaningful ways😂

If you felt you were sexually harassed, and retaliated against for complaining about it, would you want to issue media about yourself kissing costars and being desirable? Personally, I would not. But I also wouldn’t improving kissing someone whom I believed SH’d me.

She’s not too bright and continues to sabotage her fading “career.” SMH.

Needless to say, all these fan reactions are more than enough to emphasize that Lively pretty much dug her own grave by doing something like reportedly releasing an article about what her co-stars have to say about kissing her, even more so while she’s still battling a s*xual harassment case with Baldoni!
Justin Baldoni Also Explicitly Said Blake Lively Will Use Any Small Issue “Against Him”

Apart from his confessing that he wasn’t keen on kissing Blake Lively onscreen or offscreen, Justin Baldoni also revealed in his filing in exhibit 81 that the actress might use any small issue “against him.” The filing stated,
The risk of something innocuous… could and would very likely be used against me (as it already has). By now we all know what she is capable of.
While that implies a hostile working environment, there’s more to this story. This includes Baldoni mentioning that “Everyone knows how I feel… how angry I am that Blake has taken over our film and somehow rewrote a movie we spent years developing, writing and funding. So yes, I am furious,” and also that “Creativity is impossible in an environment shrouded in fear.”
Needless to say, that says a lot about the environment that Baldoni and the rest of the cast and crew had to work in while bringing Colleen Hoover’s It Ends with Us to life. And if all these claims are true, then Lively might not have that strong a chance of winning her trial against Baldoni, which is currently scheduled for March 2026.
