How A Subpoena And WhatsApp May Be At The Heart Of Conflicting Narratives From Blake Lively And Justin Baldoni’s Attorneys

by

Since its debut, the transition of the book “It Ends With Us” to the screen has been closely associated with drama. Initially triggered by Blake Lively‘s interactions with journalists, she and director/actor Justin Baldoni are now embroiled in several lawsuits related to the project (which is available through a Netflix subscription). The cast members have made various accusations against one another, but a subpoena and WhatsApp exchanges could potentially shed light on the accounts presented by Baldoni’s and Lively’s legal representatives.

The lawsuit filed by Blake Lively against the team behind “It Ends With Us” initiated a series of lawsuits. Justin Baldoni followed with a suit against the New York Times for their coverage and another defamation suit against Lively and Reynolds. The case took an intricate turn with Stephanie Jones, a PR executive, becoming part of the story due to leaked text messages. She too is suing Baldoni, among others, for defamation and breach of contract. Jones’ lawsuit could significantly impact the ongoing legal disputes between the film’s cast members.

How WhatsApp And More Are Involved In The It Ends With Us Brouhaha

As fans closely follow the lawsuits involving Baldoni and Lively, Deadline provides a new development regarding Stephanie Jones’ potential involvement. The conflicting narratives between these two stars from “It Ends With Us” have led to some severe accusations. In an effort to establish her own innocence, Jones might shed light on the truth about the incident involving Baldoni and Lively. Her legal team is said to have issued subpoenas to WhatsApp, Signal, Hostinger, Name Cheap, digital publishing platform AnyFlip, and chatbot company Gab AI in a bid to retrieve deleted documents that could support her account of events. According to reports, the legal notices sent to these entities state:

In this situation, I am required to request that you provide certain documents and communications, as it is believed that you may have them in your possession. These materials are crucial for the proceedings of the case mentioned above, specifically concerning the claims made in the initial complaint. The requested items may include, but are not limited to, details related to those allegations.

As Jones gathers evidence from the set of “It Ends With Us,” it may serve to bolster her legal claims and potentially settle conflicting stories between Baldoni and Lively. Given the potential financial strain of these lawsuits for the acting duo, it will be intriguing to discover if the information uncovered by the publicist proves to be a decisive piece of evidence or not.

As a movie enthusiast, I’m closely following the ongoing legal developments related to the “This Ends With Us” cases, and it seems the tension is palpable for all parties involved. Whether Baldoni and Lively will indeed meet in court remains to be seen, and we’ll have to watch how Stephanie Jones’ lawsuit affects the final outcome. The public could certainly benefit from some clarification on this matter, given the contrasting narratives that have surfaced. However, it’s essential to note that her primary goal is to clear her name above all else.

It appears that the legal disputes are preventing a sequel to “It Ends With Us” from being made, even though its initial film was quite successful. Therefore, it is unlikely that there will be any changes to the 2025 release schedule regarding this project.
