Blake Lively Is All Smiles in Her First Appearance Since the Baldoni Legal Battle Began
Almost exactly a month after launching what has turned into a very messy legal battle with Justin Baldoni, Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds have been spotted out and about and—for the first time—together. The couple have been laying (relatively) low for the past few months, but a new Instagram Story shows that there's one former co-star Lively's not about to feud with: actor Michele Morrone.
Morrone, an Italian actor best known stateside for appearing in the steamy Netflix movie 365 Days, posted a selfie with Lively and Reynolds (taken in a room that sure looks like their apartment) on Sunday, January 26, writing 'Missed you guys! Love you!!' and tagging both stars.
Morrone has an unspecified role in the upcoming sequel to A Simple Favor, which Lively was shooting in Italy while It Ends With Us was going through post-production. Like the first movie, the A Simple Favor sequel was directed by Paul Feig, who is also helming the movie adaptation of the novel The Housemaid, which Morrone has a part in. He posted a signed copy of the novel with a note from the author saying she's glad to have him playing the character of Enzo.
You might remember that rumors of a Baldoni-Lively-Reynolds rift began to swirl after the actors didn't appear in press pictures together, and fans noticed that the power couple had unfollowed the actor-director on Instagram. Given this latest pic, it seems like all these people get along.
Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds's legal issues with Baldoni were rumored to be derailing plans for ASF2, but thankfully, Feig shut that down online, saying the studio is aiming for a spring or summer release.

How Sydney Sweeney Navigated Jonathan Davino Breakup on Set
Originally appeared on E! Online Anyone but Sydney Sweeney might not have been as professional. But even as the Euphoria actress was in the middle of ending her relationship with fiancé Jonathan Davino in March after seven years together, Paul Feig—who directed Sydney in the upcoming film The Housemaid—was impressed that she never brought her personal life to the set. 'She was completely present emotionally,' Paul told the Wall Street Journal in an interview published Aug. 20, 'just up for anything, and really didn't bring any issues to set.' He added, 'And I know she was going through some things when this was going on—I mean, now everybody knows about her engagement falling apart and breaking off and all that.' Of course Paul made sure to check in on his star as rumors began to swirl about her relationship with Jonathan, recalling, 'I'd say, 'Hey, are you OK?' and she'd go, 'I'm fine, I'm great!' but not defensively.'

In fact, the Madame Web actress wasn't interested in discussing her former relationship, declining to confirm whether she and Jonathan would continue working together in a professional capacity as the two founded their production company Fifty-Fifty Films in 2020. And while she recently sparked rumors with a new mystery man after the two were spotted jet skiing in July—and even with Machine Gun Kelly after an outing together in May—Sydney shared that as of now, she's focused solely on her work. 'It's great to do what you love,' she gushed, 'because if you love it, then it doesn't feel like work, and you want to do it every single day, all the time.' The Immaculate star has also found more time for herself since splitting from Jonathan three years after getting engaged. 'I'm learning a lot about myself, spending more time with my friends," told the Sunday Times in May. "And I'm loving it." For more celebrity splits, keep reading.

Sydney Sweeney breaks online silence amid ‘jeans' ad backlash. See the post
Shaking it off. Sydney Sweeney isn't letting a little thing like an online scandal interrupt her fun. The actress' first Instagram post since the Internet flipped over her American Eagle ad shows her at a beloved Key West hangout. 'Duval diaries,' says the caption along with a bunch of photos of her with some pals yukking it up at Sloppy Joe's, which is on, yes, Duval Street. The dive bar, whose motto is 'Still the Best Party in Town,' is just about 20 miles from the waterfront retreat in Summerland Key that Sweeney snapped up last summer for $13.5M. Bless her heart, she looked positively beaming, despite the fact that her new movie 'Americana' is not exactly a hit. In the thriller, Sweeney plays a South Dakota waitress who plots with a cowboy ('Fantastic Four's' Paul Walter Hauser) to steal a Native American artifact called the Ghost Shirt from criminals. Well, the flick didn't go over so well with audiences, as per the Hollywood Reporter. 'Americana' opened to an estimated $500,000 from 1,123 theaters, ranking 16th in the domestic box office. It's unclear if the lack of folks buying tickets had to do with Sweeney's recent controversial AE campaign that played with the words 'jeans,' as in clothing, and 'genes,' as in DNA. In one eyebrow-raising spot, Sweeney says, 'Genes are passed down from parents to offspring, often determining traits like hair color, personality, and even eye color.' The laid-back post at Sloppy Joe's garnered mixed reactions from her 25.2M followers. Sniped one critic: 'I heard your movie flopped. I guess they spent all their movie money on the good genes.' But others were happy to see her living her life and even said they even bought up more AE jeans amid the backlash. 'Glad to see Sydney so unbothered by all the asinine hate!' wrote one supporter. 'Keep doing you!' Solve the daily Crossword
