(USA Today) – Days after the final ruling in Justin Baldoni and Blake Lively‘s legal battle, their official settlement agreement has been released.
The “It Ends with Us” costars reached a settlement on May 4, weeks before they were set to go to trial over Lively’s breach of contract and retaliation lawsuit, and judge Lewis Liman made the last ruling in the case on June 12, marking the conclusion of the litigation.
The terms of the settlement were made public on Monday, June 15, revealing Lively, 38, Baldoni, 42, and his company Wayfarer Studios agreed to end “all differences and disputes” and “irrevocably waive any and all appellate rights associated” with either of their prior legal action. They also agreed to release a joint statement.
The settlement left the actress’ motion for Baldoni to pay her attorneys’ fees and damages relating to his 2025 defamation lawsuit to be decided by Liman in later proceedings. Liman ultimately ruled that Baldoni must pay Lively’s attorneys’ fees, but denied her request for any damages.
