Blake Lively and husband Ryan Reynolds have made a surprising move amid the legal battle

Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds are doing just fine.

Lively, 37, shared a smiling selfie with her husband of nearly 13 years via Instagram Story on Sunday, March 16. Alongside the selfie, she also shared three photos of cookies and cupcakes resembling horses that the family baked together.

Lively captioned one of the snaps, “The family that bakes together… stays sick on buttercream together.”

It appears Lively and Reynolds, 48, are focusing on spending quality time together amid an ongoing legal battle with Lively’s It Ends With Us costar and director Justin Baldoni. Both parties have issued statements as they wait for a judge to rule on Lively’s request for a stronger protective order.

During a March 6 hearing, Lively’s legal team accused Baldoni’s lawyers of having “created improper disclosure of information.”

“We want to stop the public publication of this information, in the case, during discovery. The rules try and prevent the burden to be on the third parties,” the actress’ lawyer said during the hearing. “We should not make the dozens of third parties run to the court for protection. We are supposed to reduce the burden on third parties. He should drop the third-party subpoena against the security firm that protects Lively and Reynolds.”

Bryan Freedman, Baldoni’s lead attorney, disputed the claims.

“These are matters of ‘for attorney’s eyes only’ restrictions,” Freedman said on Thursday. “This is a case where no one has any intention of harming Ms. Lively in any way. She detailed the 𝓈ℯ𝓍ual harassment claims and put that out there. My clients have been adjudicated as guilty right when this was filed. My client has a right to fight back and to defend himself. We want to agree to the protective order and place the burden on the party, who wants greater protection, to go to court and be transparent.”

Lively’s team is also attempting to protect “high-profile individuals” with whom she may have spoken or otherwise corresponded about her experiences with Baldoni.

“There is a significant chance of irreparable harm if marginal conversations with high-profile individuals with no relevance to the case were to fall into wrong hands,” her attorney claimed.

Freedman appeared unmoved by the claim. “We cannot treat celebrity people, and people who are powerful in the industry differently from other people,” he responded.

Lively and Reynolds requested a stronger PO in February.

“As detailed in Ms. Lively’s Amended Complaint, Ms. Lively, her family, other members of the cast, various fact witnesses, and individuals that have spoken out publicly in support of Ms. Lively have received violent, profane, 𝓈ℯ𝓍ist, and threatening communications,” a letter from Lively and Reynolds, noting Lively was seeking “additional protections.”

Kim Soo Hyun’s Disney+ K-Drama Faces Delay – Sponsors Brace for Huge Losses!

Disney+’s upcoming K-Drama Knockoff, starring Kim Soo Hyun, is reportedly facing a delay following the actor’s recent controversy. Originally set for a production press conference next month with a release in the first half of the year, the series now has an uncertain schedule due to controversy surrounding its lead. Knockoff follows a man whose life is upended by the 1997 Asian financial crisis, leading him to become a major figure in the counterfeit goods market. Kim Soo Hyun takes on the role of Kim Sung Joon, vice president of Saemmul Market, while Jo Bo Ah plays Song Hye Jung, a special judicial officer targeting counterfeit operations. With a significant budget and a second season already confirmed, the series had been generating considerable buzz. However, recent allegations that Kim Soo Hyun was romantically involved with the late actress Kim Sae Ron when she was underage have thrown the production into uncertainty. If the issue remains unresolved, the actor may be unable to attend promotional events, and in the worst case, the K-Drama’s release could even be reconsidered. Disney Korea has responded to such speculation by stating that a final release date has yet to be confirmed. The release schedule has not been finalized.— Disney Korea Amid this uncertainty, brands that partnered with Knockoff are also expected to take a financial hit. Among them is Safety Zone Korea, South Korea’s first-ever streetwear brand, which had invested in the project. CEO Park Ki Pyo expressed disappointment over the situation, stating that the company will wait for Disney’s decision before making an official statement. As a company that values youthful energy and innovative branding, we collaborated with Knockoff in its production. However, this unforeseen scandal has disrupted the project, which is truly regrettable. We will determine our official stance after Disney releases its decision.— Park Ki Pyo With the future of Knockoff in limbo, attention is now on whether Disney+ will move forward with the release or adjust its plans.
