The Justin Baldoni & Blake Lively Set Feud Explained
This news comes after summer tabloids spread the rumor that Lively and Baldoni had experienced significant feuding on the set ofIt Ends With Us. The rumors are varying, ranging from the allegation that Baldoni made comments on set that led to Lively being uncomfortable about her post-partum body to ideas that the two stars debated over what the final cut of the film should look like. Neither actor has commented directly on the gossip, but the volume of publicity seems to suggest that something went awry on set, even if the specifics are unclear.
The Baldoni-Lively feud rumors were further fueled by the actors' interactions — or rather, lack thereof — on the press tour forIt Ends With Us. On August 6, Baldoni was not photographed with the rest of the cast on the red carpet for the New York premiere ofIt Ends With Us. Baldoni and Lively also have not appeared in interviews together throughout the duration of the press tour for the film, which is unusual for a film that has two key central actors.

This fact seemed to come as a surprise to Baldoni, as well as the film’s screenwriter, who had both been under the impression that Lively had ad-libbed the scene. While none of these moments prove the feud’s existence in isolation, the shaky update surroundingIt Ends With Us2partially confirms some unstable relationship between Baldoni and Lively.
