Blake Lively Drops Subpoenas Against YouTubers in Legal Drama with Justin Baldoni

Hollywood star Blake Lively just hit pause on part of her legal battle—and fans are buzzing. Late last month, the Gossip Girl alum rescinded subpoenas against three YouTubers tied to her ongoing dispute involving actor-director Justin Baldoni.

The move comes as the case barrels toward its next big court date: March 9, 2026.

Sources close to the case reveal Lively originally subpoenaed the creators for testimony linked to her battle with Baldoni. The YouTubers’ names have not been publicly disclosed, but the sudden withdrawal has people asking: What changed?

One entertainment insider quipped, “Dropping subpoenas this close to trial is unusual. Either strategy shifted—or someone made a deal behind the scenes.”

The tension between Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni has been simmering for months. While details remain sealed, legal filings suggest disputes over rights, projects, and personal grievances may be at play.

This latest development only adds more layers to the mystery.

On social media, fans wasted no time weighing in:

  • “Three YouTubers? Why were they even dragged into this?”
  • “She’s playing chess, not checkers. Watch the March court date—fireworks incoming.”
  • “Blake’s always strategic. If she pulled back, it means something bigger’s coming.”

With the subpoenas dropped, all eyes now turn to March 9, 2026, when Lively and Baldoni are set to face off in court. Will the case explode into public spectacle—or get quietly settled before then?

For now, fans (and the YouTubers breathing a sigh of relief) can only wait.
