Blake Lively Gets Strong Support From WME After Baldoni Suit Carved Up By Judge Ahead Of Trial

EXCLUSIVE: Blake Lively‘s year and half long legal battle with Justin Baldoni saw a big section of the It Ends With Us actress’ lawsuit sliced out this week with a judge dismissing the sexual harassment claims against her co-star and his Wayfarer executives. However, with six weeks to go before a trial starts in NYC, WME, Lively’s current agency and Baldoni’s former agency, has come out swinging for the Another Simple Favor star.
