Taylor Swift and Hugh Jackman might not be able to hide away from Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni‘s brouhaha. Recent reports indicate that Swift and Jackman will be subpoenaed in a lawsuit between Lively and Baldoni. The subpoenas might be issued this week, and if Swift does not comply, she could face legal consequences.
Baldoni’s $400 million lawsuit against Lively involves allegations of sexual harassment, retaliation, and a smear campaign. The situation has drawn significant attention on social media, particularly regarding Lively and Swift’s friendship. The conflict escalated when Baldoni accused Lively of using her relationship with Swift to pressure him into making unwanted film edits.
The lawsuit does not officially name Jackman, but he is mentioned via his connection with Ryan Reynolds, Lively’s husband. As Daily Mail noted, Baldoni has accused Reynolds of attempting to damage his reputation. He claimed Reynolds parodied him through a fictional character in Deadpool and Wolverine movie featuring Jackman.
Fans Remain Divided as Blake Lively & Justin Baldoni Drama Escalates
The case’s latest development has sparked uproar among fans with varying opinions. Reacting to the development, a Baldoni fan wrote, “Gets more interesting every day. Justice for Justin!” Another person believes the whole thing has “gone on for too long,” tagging it “ridiculous.” The commenter wondered why Swift and Jackman would be subpoenaed in the “made up story.”
Another commenter suggested Swift leaves the country for a while to escape the subpoena. For this fan, “Blake really messed up when she filed the lawsuit.” The commenter suggested that the actress should have simply moved on after the initial controversy from her past. Another fan tagged Lively’s career over, after her team’s “miscalculations” and encouraged Baldoni to “take this all the way.”
This reader saw the latest subpoena as a revelation of Swift and Jackman’s true nature. They described Swift as a “mean girl,” and called Jackman “a bully.” Another subscriber shared the sentiments, asserting that “Taylor Swift is now walking on thin ice.” One more Baldoni fan is very displeased at the efforts Lively and her team have exerted to “destroy” him.
Blake Lively Is Reportedly Desperate For A Fresh Start With Taylor Swift
Since the lawsuit broke out, Swift has reportedly gotten upset over her name being thrown around. Following the incident, the two have been seen less frequently together. We shared that tensions rose, especially after private text messages between Lively and Baldoni were leaked. In these messages, Lively compared herself to Khaleesi from Game of Thrones. She referred to her husband, Reynolds, and Swift as her “dragons.”
Lively might have exploited Swift’s fame to sway Baldoni regarding creative decisions in the film. The entire event reportedly upset Swift and contributed to their estrangement. However, on her end, Lively is allegedly trying to reconcile with the singer following their fallout. Lively has reportedly reached out to Swift to offer her apologies in hopes of mending their relationship.
Is there any resolution in sight for Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni, or is all hope lost?
