Blake Lively’s Legal Bill? Justin Baldoni’s Problem Now
Published June 30, 2026 at 11:55 am
Blake Lively is walking away from her legal war with Justin Baldoni with a massive payday — and he’s footing the bill for her lawyers. Court documents filed this week reveal that Baldoni has been ordered to pay a staggering seven-figure sum to cover Lively’s legal fees from their settlement.
Here’s the kicker: Lively’s attorneys argued in the docs that \”significant press attention\” around the case drove up costs big time. Translation? All the media coverage of their drama made the legal battle way more expensive, and Baldoni’s paying for it.
The actress and the actor-director have been locked in a legal mess, and while the details of their settlement remain under wraps, one thing’s crystal clear — Baldoni’s wallet took the hit. The seven-figure legal fee demand shows just how costly this whole thing became.
