Blake Lively, Hollywood’s IT girl, has been taking over the headlines with her legal smashes against Justin Baldoni, surrounding the ‘It Ends with Us’ on-set conflicts. As the director-actor’s lawsuit was dismissed by the court that sought USD 400 million as damages from Lively, she demanded that he pay her legal fees and any additional costs from the case, asking to be awarded triple damages and punitive damages. The frenemies reportedly settled with each other outside the legal walls two weeks before they went they were scheduled to appear. While both of their attorneys called this a victory, nobody has actually sent the money, as per Page Six. Despite the online bashes and courtroom drama, Lively has been standing tall with her family behind her as a rock. Her husband, Ryan Reynolds, has been holding her hand, and they have been spotted various times – whether it’s in the stadiums in Europe or on a frozen yoghurt date. The ‘Gossip Girl’ actress once shared kind words about the ‘Deadpool’ actor about trying to figure out life in between the conflicts. Her words to date continue to define their relationship. The quote of the day reads, “In other relationships, if something came up, I would call my girlfriends or my sister, and say, “Hey, this is what he did—what should I do?” Where with him, we were friends for two years before we were ever dating. And I treat him like my girlfriend. I’m like, “Hey, this happened. It upset me. This is how I feel. What do I do?” And he does the same for me. He treats me like his best buddy.”
Meaning of the quote of the day by Blake Lively
Blake Lively spoke about the profound trust she has in her husband during the 2017 interview with Glamour. “Communication is the key to the relationship” – and the actress believes the statement. Treating him like the closest person, she confides in her husband during the difficult times, where she needs to vent out her anger, feelings, and disappointment. They found their person in this lifetime, where both of them are not afraid of emotional intimacy and often think about each other as the personification of home. Despite all the fluctuations in the relationships about attractions, passion, or chemistry, they seemed to have figured out the most important thing – friendship. Instead of bringing a third person into the relationship to solve their problems, they call themselves their best friends who figure their way out of the situations. It’s Lively and Reynolds vs the problem – always. The couple has built a safety net around themselves, approaching everything as teammates. Love can often be mistaken for grand gestures and humongous gifts. More than that, it’s about finding someone with whom you can be truly yourself and not separate the entity.
