What Is Justin Baldoni Doing After Losing USD 400 Million Lawsuit Against It Ends With Us Co-Star Blake Lively?
Justin Baldoni is turning away from the legal battle stress to spend time with his family. The It Ends With Us star stepped out for a tropical vacation with his wife and kids in Costa Rica.
The outing for the Baldoni family comes after his 400 million USD lawsuit against Blake Lively was dismissed on June 9.
A source close to the Jane the Virgin alum confirmed to People Magazine that 'He's enjoying a nice holiday with the family in Costa Rica.' Previously, the actor was also seen holding a surfboard at the beach.
He was filmed and the video was uploaded on social media as a tribute to him on Father's Day. The clip was uploaded on Reddit a week after the case dismissal.
Justin Baldoni's lawsuit against Blake Lively dismissed
The legal battle between Justin Baldoni and Blake Lively has been going on since December 2024, when the actress first filed a case against her co-star on the grounds of s*xual harassment and running a smear campaign against her.
Weeks later, the filmmaker too filed a countercase against Lively and her husband, Ryan Reynolds for defamation and extortion.
On June 9, the mother of four took a sign of relief after the judge dismissed Baldoni's lawsuit against her.
The judge however claimed that Baldoni and his lawyers could still keep the case against Lively going on the grounds of breach of implied contract and tortious interference with contract by June 23.
Following the lawsuit dismissal, the actress took to her Instagram to react. On her stories, the Age of Adeline star shared, "Like so many others, I've felt the pain of a retaliatory lawsuit, including the manufactured shame that tries to break us. While the suit against me was defeated, so many don't have the resources to fight back.'
The mother of four further added that she is 'more resolved than ever to continue to stand for every woman's right to have a voice in protecting themselves, including their safety, their integrity, their dignity and their story."
However, Justin Baldoni thought the ruling wasn't fair, said his attorney, Bryan Freedman.

"Can't Continue The Way I Used To": Popular Food Vlogger Steps Away From Long-Form YouTube Videos
Firoz Chuttipara, the face behind Kerala's popular Village Food Channel, has said that he will no longer be making long-format YouTube videos that first brought him fame. Known for his massive cooking projects, like preparing hundreds of kilos of biryani or seafood pickle, Chuttipara's unique blend of tradition, scale and social impact earned him a huge following among food lovers in India and beyond. The Palakkad native, who returned to Kerala after working abroad, turned to YouTube with a vision. It was to cook grand meals, often for underprivileged communities, and show the process from scratch. But in a recent YouTube Live session, Firoz shared that the economics of creating such large-scale content no longer add up. 'I can't continue with YouTube the way I used to,' he said, as quoted by News18. With audiences increasingly turning to shorter videos, like Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts, Firoz said that the shift in viewer behaviour has made long-form content financially unsustainable for creators like him. The limited earnings from short videos are not enough to offset the significant expenses involved in sourcing ingredients and handling large-scale production. Having said that, he clarified that while long videos will now be rare, short updates will continue to appear on his channel. View this post on Instagram A post shared by VILLAGE FOOD CHANNEL (@villagefoodchannel_official) Looking ahead, Firoz has decided to channel his energy into a new business venture with a friend. Although he has kept the details under wraps, he said that the venture will be based in the UAE and will require much of his time and attention going forward. Firoz's journey, from expatriate to one of Kerala's most recognised culinary YouTubers, has been remarkable. While fans may miss the epic cooking sessions that made him famous, many remain eager to see how his next chapter unfolds, whether in business or short-form food content.
