Blake Lively's Met Gala Appearance Solidified Weeks Ago, Baldoni Settlement Irrelevant
Blake Lively arrived with cousin William McAlpin and wore a 2006 archival Versace gown as the legal fight with Justin Baldoni ended.
- On Monday, Blake Lively attended the 2026 Met Gala in New York City just hours after settling her legal battle with co-star Justin Baldoni over their 2024 film, It Ends With Us.
- Lively sued Baldoni in December 2024 alleging sexual harassment and a smear campaign, which he denied; the parties later released a joint statement acknowledging challenges and committing to respectful workplaces.
- Last month, a judge dismissed 10 of Lively's 13 allegations, including sexual harassment claims, and the settlement occurred weeks before a trial scheduled for May 18.
- Lawyer M.J. Morley wrote that the joint statement suggests Lively held leverage, as the team that spent 18 months calling her complaints "a huge lie" agreed to sign it.
- Walking the red carpet in a 2006 Versace gown, Lively was accompanied by her cousin William McAlpin, who helped the actress manage her long train on the museum steps.
