The ongoing legal conflict between Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni continues to escalate, with new lawsuits and subpoenas adding fuel to the fire.
Following Lively’s December lawsuit accusing Baldoni and others of sexual harassment, the latest developments involve a PR chief, Melissa Nathan, who is now targeting multiple tech companies for information that could influence the case.
Nathan, who is pivotal in the legal drama, has subpoenaed companies like WhatsApp, Signal, and website hosting services to gather communications and account information related to the case.
These subpoenas are aimed at uncovering who may have been behind anonymous websites and posts, with Nathan seeking to shed light on the digital aspects of the dispute.
The legal tension surrounding Lively and Baldoni has also led to Hollywood’s shifting support, with Lively receiving backing from her agency and film distributor Sony, while Baldoni faces increasing public backlash.
Lively’s legal team has accused Baldoni and his PR team of orchestrating a smear campaign, while Baldoni’s lawyer, Bryan Freedman, has vowed to fight back, including taking legal action against Lively and even her husband, Ryan Reynolds.
As the case continues to unfold, the public relations war is playing out in both the courts and the media, with both sides preparing for a high-stakes courtroom battle.
