Blake Lively sued for allegedly causing PR firm ‘millions of dollars in reputational harm’ with Justin Baldoni complaint

It (still) doesn’t end.
Blake Lively has been sued again amid her and Justin Baldoni’s legal drama — this time by a crisis PR firm.
In court documents obtained by Page Six, Jed Wallace is claiming that the actress defamed him and his company, Street Relations Inc., when she filed her December 2024 complaint against Baldoni with the California Civil Rights Department.
Not only did Lively accuse her “It Ends With Us” co-star of sexual harassment in the complaint, but she alleged that he engaged in a social media “smear campaign” against her.
The “Gossip Girl” alum identified Wallace and Street Relations Inc. in the filing but did not name either as defendants in the lawsuit she filed with the New York federal court later.
However, in this new lawsuit against Lively, Wallace claimed that the actress asked a judge to authorize deposing him, accusing him of being a subcontractor to TAG — the company she claims engaged in an “unlawful retaliatory social combat campaign” against her.
Wallace, who insists this is false, wrote that this alleged mistake cost him “millions of dollars in reputational harm with a projected loss to his company that exceeds another million.”
Lively’s legal team, in turn, clapped back at the lawsuit in a statement to TMZ, writing, “Another day, another state, another nine-figure lawsuit seeking to sue Ms. Lively ‘into oblivion’ for speaking out against sexual harassment and retaliation.”
Lively’s rep has yet to return Page Six’s request for comment.
TMZ was the first outlet to report the news on Wednesday.
Lively, 37, and Baldoni, 41, first sparked feud rumors when “It Ends With Us” premiered in August 2024.
The same day that Lively officially sued Baldoni, the actor hit back with his own $250 million libel lawsuit against the New York Times for its coverage of her complaint — although the outlet is standing by its “meticulous” reporting.
Baldoni, for his part, has denied any wrongdoing.
In January, the “Jane the Virgin” alum sued Lively, her husband, Ryan Reynolds, and their rep for $400 million over civil extortion, defamation and invasion of privacy.
His lawyer, Bryan Freedman, subsequently teased a website launch featuring correspondence that would allegedly “directly quash” Lively’s claims about Baldoni.
As raw movie footage and middle-of-the-night voice messages were subsequently released, Lively and Reynolds, 48, requested a gag order to silence Freedman.
The promised website, nevertheless, launched over the weekend, with Baldoni sharing a filing from the lawsuit containing a slew of text messages between himself and Lively.
Despite Baldoni’s lawsuit being four times her and Reynolds’ net worth, the “A Simple Favor” star has remained “surprisingly” calm throughout the scandal.
“[She] just tries to focus on family life,” a source told People Monday. “She sees the whole lawsuit drama as a necessary bump, but she’s not letting it take away from her main focus, which is her children.”
That same day, Baldoni’s lawyer said during a pre-trial conference that his client has been “devastated financially and emotionally” by the ongoing drama.
