The SNL
50th anniversary special was nothing short of a Hollywood extravaganza, bringing together legends, A-listers, and comedy royalty under one roof. Among the glittering sea of stars, Ryan Reynolds
and Blake Lively
stood out as the ultimate power couple. The duo stepped out at the star-studded SNL
50th anniversary bash, serving looks, laughs, and a united front that left fans swooning and forgetting, just for a moment, about the drama brewing behind the scenes.
While the couple’s smiles lit up the red carpet, the shadow of their legal battle with Justin Baldoni loomed in the background. Blake Lively, 37, has accused Baldoni, 41, of sexual harassment and orchestrating a smear campaign against her, although Baldoni has denied the claims and countersued the couple for defamation. Yet, at the SNL
bash, Ryan Reynolds and Lively were all about the good vibes, hugging friends like Amy Schumer and posing for photos like the ultimate couple goals. Fans could not help but admire their ability to keep things light and breezy despite the heavy allegations.

The legal battle between Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni has been anything but simple. Lively’s lawsuit, filed in December 2024, alleges that Baldoni engaged in inappropriate behavior on the set of It Ends With Us
and later launched a PR campaign to tarnish her reputation. Baldoni, however, has fired back, accusing Lively and Ryan Reynolds of defamation and even taking issue with Reynolds’ Deadpool
& Wolverine
character, claiming it was a dig at him.
As the case unfolds, the drama continues, but for now, fans are just thrilled to see the couple shine.
