The two sides were in court Tuesday to discuss pretrial issues ... and, damages came up --specifically, Lively arguing Baldoni and others damaged her public reputation, which caused her brands to take a beating.
Baldoni's lawyers disagreed, firing back that Blake has a poor track record of running businesses ... and companies like her liquor brand Betty Buzz failed because people just don't like her.

It seems like Donald Trump and King Charles IIIare more than just allies ... they're reportedly (very distant) cousins.
According to "detailed research" from Daily Mail, Trump and Charles are 15th cousins ... because they share a common ancestor from the late 1400s/early 1500s.

Prince Harry is sticking it to his royal family once again ... telling fans in Australia he decided he never wanted to be a working royal after his mom, Princess Diana, died in a car crash following a high-speed paparazzi chase in 1997.
He and wife Meghan Markle are currently touring Australia, and he made the comments during the professional development InterEdge Summit in Melbourne. He told attendees he felt "lost, betrayed, or completely powerless" during his life and "stuck my head in the sand for years" doing as he was told until one day he realized he didn't have to.
Harry explained ... "After my mum died just before my 13th birthday I was like, 'I don't want this job. I don't want this role wherever this is headed, I don't like it.'" He added ... "It killed my mum, and I was very much against it."
Then, after much reflection, he realized he could use his platform to make a difference in his own way ... and he set off to do just that.
Prince Harrywas caught sending some seriously flirty Facebook messages to a Daily Mail reporter, court documents show.
The Telegraph reported that the Duke of Sussex had discussed "movie snuggles" and sent virtual kisses to Mail on Sunday reporter Charlotte Griffiths.

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's time in Hollywood has been anything but a fairytale ... their partnership with Netflix seems to be going so poorly that co-CEO Ted Sarandos reportedly won't even talk to Meghan on the phone without a lawyer.
Variety reports two sources say Ted insists on having legal representation present if he were to jump on a call with Meghan ... although, both a Netflix spokesperson and a Sussex attorney have denied this claim.
Lawyer Michael J. Kump told Variety ... "This is blatantly false. In fact, Meghan texts and speaks with Mr. Sarandos regularly, and has been to his home, sans lawyers."
