Blake Lively Arrives To Met Gala After Settling Justin Baldoni Legal Battle
Blake Lively Justin Who?!? Arrives at Met Gala
Blake Lively is getting real colorful to celebrate the end of her "It Ends With Us" legal battle with Justin Baldoni.
The actress hit the Met Gala red carpet Monday night looking anything but stressed ... rocking a long, pastel gown that screamed springtime fantasy. The dress, with a dreamy blend of pinks and blues, gave off straight up cotton candy energy. Playful, light, and yes downright jovial ... a noticeable shift considering the drama she's been dealing with.
We broke the story ... Blake and Justin officially agreed to a settlement in their bitter "It Ends With Us" legal battle earlier in the day Monday ... pulling the plug just weeks before things were set to explode in court.
In a joint statement, they kept things polished and professional, saying the movie "is a source of pride" and emphasizing its mission to raise awareness for domestic violence survivors.
They also acknowledged things got rocky behind the scenes ... noting concerns raised by Blake "deserved to be heard" and doubling down on their commitment to safe, respectful workplaces.
The statement wrapped with a call for closure ... expressing hope everyone can move forward "constructively and in peace," including dialing down the online noise.
As we've reported, a judge had already tossed most of Blake's claims, though her retaliation allegation survived and she previously claimed she lost a staggering $161 million due to what she described as a smear campaign.
