Blake Lively And Ryan Reynolds Turn Heads In First Outing Since Gala Speech

Just two days after the “Gossip Girl” alum was slammed by Megyn Kelly for being honored at the Time100 Gala, Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds packed on the PDA while supporting his Wrexham soccer team in Wales on Saturday.

In one sweet snap, shared by Page Six, Reynolds was seen kissing his wife on the forehead as she lovingly wrapped her arms around his waist. Another photo captured Lively grabbing her husband’s face and planting a big kiss right on his lips.

Clearly unbothered by the headlines, Lively also shared a smiling selfie of the couple to her Instagram Stories one day earlier, writing, “Let’s go boys @wrexham_afc” alongside a shot of them posing in front of the team’s logo.

“It’s a ridiculous joke,” Kelly said on the red carpet. “She shouldn’t be here. She has no influence over anything.”

Kelly went even further, accusing Lively of having “launched a fake MeToo allegation” against her “It Ends With Us” co-star and director, Justin Baldoni.

During her emotional Time100 speech, Lively subtly addressed her ongoing legal war with Baldoni by opening up about her mother, Willie Elain McAlpin, revealing that she had been assaulted by a “work acquaintance,” and had spent her life concealing “her raw and undeserved shame.”

“My mom never got justice from her work acquaintance who attempted to take her life when she was the mother of three young kids years before I was born,” Lively shared from the stage.

Without naming names, Lively sent a strong message about resilience, telling the crowd, “Never underestimate a woman’s ability to endure pain.”

She also made sure to thank “every man,” including her “sweet husband,” for being “kind and good when no one is watching.”

Baldoni is staying quiet, at least publicly, following Lively’s emotional speech at the TIME100 Gala.

While Baldoni hasn’t directly responded to Lively’s comments at the star-studded event, he’s certainly making moves behind the scenes.

The actor and director previously denied Lively’s sexual harassment claims and is hitting back with a jaw-dropping $400 million countersuit against Lively, her husband Ryan Reynolds, and their longtime publicist Leslie Sloane for defamation, extortion, and other charges.

Adding another twist to the drama, Baldoni recently launched a website designed to present his side of the story, a move he previously teased as a platform to defend himself against Lively’s allegations.

The site features two main sections: The Amended Complaint and The Case Timeline.

The Amended Complaint outlines Baldoni and his production company’s official legal claims against Lively and Reynolds, detailing accusations of defamation, extortion, and what they describe as “false allegations.”

Meanwhile, The Case Timeline offers a blow-by-blow account of key events, starting from Baldoni’s acquisition of the rights to “It Ends With Us” through to the escalating feud with Lively.
