Blake Lively's Lawyers Deny Media Leaks and Misrepresentation of Her Deposition in Lawsuit Against Justin Baldoni

Blake Lively's legal representatives have responded to reports concerning her deposition in her ongoing lawsuit against Justin Baldoni. The deposition took place on July 31 in New York City, during which Lively testified before her attorneys. Following media speculation that Baldoni was present, her lawyers filed a motion requesting the court to exclude the sealed deposition transcript, accusing Baldoni's legal team of leaking details to tabloids with the intent of sensationalizing the event. They argued that the leaks aimed to portray the deposition as a confrontational face-off between the two actors, which they dispute, clarifying that multiple individuals and attorneys were present during her testimony. The legal dispute originated from allegations of misconduct and retaliation on the set of 'It Ends With Us,' with subsequent countersuits and dismissals. Lively's deposition was conducted under a protective order, and her attorneys emphasize their efforts to control the proceedings and prevent media misrepresentation.
