Blake Lively’s trial with co-star Justin Baldoni took another surprising turn after new documents revealed a private moment between them.
The documents state that Baldoni visited Lively’s New York home in December 2022, when she was expecting a baby.
During a casual conversation about her pregnancy, the conversation reportedly revolved around whether her unborn son would be circumcised.
At that point, the director and actor told the actress that he was circumcised.
However, reports said the comment was made in a room where several people were present, including the nannies and assistants of Lively’s husband, Ryan Reynolds.
This new detail is part of the A Simple Favor actress’ desire to take the case to court.
She claimed the act made her feel uncomfortable while filming It ends with us and said the moment showed how bad the atmosphere around the project seemed to him.
His lawyers argued the comment reinforced a pattern they said went beyond personal boundaries.
Baldoni denied her claims, as his legal team said the conversation was harmless and argued that Lively was trying to use ordinary moments to support a false story.
They even asked the court to dismiss the case, saying there was no evidence of the behavior she described.
Additionally, the judge set a trial date for March 9, 2026, meaning both sides will have more time to prepare for a lengthy legal fight.
The recently shared details of the conversation have added more attention to a case.
