The Blake Lively-Justin Baldoni drama is continuing to unfold in the most unexpected way, with the latest evidence further making everything and choosing sides even more perplexing than ever. With the release of the behind-the-scenes footage ofIt Ends with Us, fans are now debating louder than ever about who might be lying and who isn’t.
While there are fans who are siding up with Lively as well, this newfound evidence seems to be highlighting one wild rumor about the actress: Her fancying Baldoni and going after him after being rejected by him. And as outlandish as this conspiracy theory sounds, fans can’t help but point out how all of this just sounds to be true.
Exclusive evidence hints at this Blake Lively rumor about Justin Baldoni being true
New evidence has just dropped in the Baldoni-Lively case, and while it has made things 10x more confusing, it has also been highlighting one conspiracy theory aboutBlake Lively. This evidence features the behind-the-scenes footage from the sets ofIt Ends with Us, specifically featuring the shooting of the slow-dance sequence in which Lively alleged Baldoni harassed her.
In the footage,Justin Baldoniis seen repeatedly leaning in toward the actress and attempting to kiss her, kissing her forehead, rubbing his face and mouth against her neck, flicking her lip with his thumb, and caressing her as the scene was supposed to show their respective characters – Lily and Ryle – falling in love and longing to be close to one another.

Lively, in the meanwhile, tried to emphasize that they should not give it to the audience directly but tease about it. However, while that’s that, Baldoni also seems to be the one in complete presence of mind in the room during the filming of the scene as he yelled ‘Cut!’ between takes and was the one to stop the shooting when he felt enough close-up takes for the scene had been taken.
That being put up for interpretation, fans couldn’t help but point out how this hints that a wild conspiracy theory about theGossip Girlsactress just might be true: That she was in love with her co-star and the director of the sleeper hit masterpiece and actually decided to go against him because “she had a crush on him and he rejected her,” as@achaveztr on Xput it.
Crazy conspiracy theory: Blake Lively is actually going against Baldoni bc she had a crush on him and he rejected her.
While that’s that, judging from how Lively behaved in the clip, including the one time she tells Baldoni to get a nose job or when she got all defensive about her relationship withRyan Reynolds– as the two went off-script to make the scene more comfortable to shoot (see@colonelkurtz99 on X) – it becomes only understandable how fans came to this wild conspiracy theory.
How fans are reacting to this Blake Lively-Justin Baldoni conspiracy theory
On the one hand, while the footage hints that there might have been s-xual tensionfrom Lively(as fans have been pointing out) toward Baldoni while shooting the scene, fans can’t help but realize that Baldoni was actually trying his best to make the actress feel comfortable as she seemingly tried to direct the scene while he, in return, seemed to be trying to be polite about it all.
All in all, taking to X, here’s what those fans have to say:
The Justin Baldoni and Blake Lively slow dance clip that just got released is so awkward. He is doing nothing wrong and she looks like she is flirting. I’m not saying she is but “hehe more than cute”? Would love to see her harassment claims since he’s providing so much evidencepic.twitter.com/q0F9P5LZB6
She vent handle it she clearly fancied him and didn’t know who to handle it lol
Either shes a really good actor or she was really into him but he looks focus on the scene😂
She was trying to direct the scene, and he was trying to be polite about it.
This is a rated R movie and there is sexual content in it that corresponds with Colleen Hoover’s raunchy book. Blake Lively is a hypocrite to claim sexual harassment when she is the one who had all the power over unknown Justin Baldoni.
There didn’t seem to be any abuse and Blake Lively was very much in control, and did not seem uncomfortable or express any discomfort. Like “please don’t do that” “no I don’t want to”. They have playful banter and trying to make an uncomfortable scene fun and get through it. Wild…

Blake Lively, in the meanwhile, has responded to this newfound evidence in the case, with her attorneys writing in their statement toThe Hollywood Reporter, that “every frame of the released footage corroborates” her claims, adding that the videos are “manufactured media stunts.” Their statement further pointed out that:
The video shows Mr. Baldoni repeatedly leaning in toward Ms. Lively, attempting to kiss her, kissing her forehead, rubbing his face and mouth against her neck, flicking her lip with his thumb, caressing her, telling her how good she smells, and talking with her out of character. Every moment of this was improvised by Mr. Baldoni with no discussion or consent in advance, and no intimacy coordinator present.
All of this said it’s unarguable that both sides are fighting really hard to prove their point and the other wrong, and this video footage evidence has madeeverything seem even more confusing than it already is. But is there actually enough leverage and truth to the wild conspiracy theory fans are devising about Lively? Well, for now, that sounds like something only time can tell.
