Megyn Kelly shared her thoughts about the ongoing drama between “It Ends With Us” star Blake Lively and her co-star and movie director Justin Baldoni, noting that the actress has “ruined” her reputation in Hollywood.
The conservative show host said as much on Thursday’s episode of “The Megyn Kelly Show.”
“My own position is she’s absolutely ruined her brand, she has started a fight she cannot win, she does appear like an Amber Heard to me,” Kelly said, referencing the legal battle between Johnny Depp and his ex a few years ago.
She continued, “I have yet to see one of her complaints borne out. In fact, all of the ones I’ve seen have been undermined by his hardcore proof in text messaging and so on. That puts a totally different light on her horrific allegations. Then you see what she actually said and wrote. It’s very different.”
At another point, Kelly mentioned Lively’s overall reputation in Hollywood, repeating claims that she’s a notorious mean girl.
“She’s a serial fraudster. That’s called fraud when you pretend you want to do the one thing and you’ll do the thing they’re hiring you for, but all along, you have secret plans to do something very, very different that’s above your pay grade. And she finally bumped into someone who was weak enough and not famous enough to stop her. This Justin Baldoni, most people had never even heard of him. He’d been in like one series. He certainly wasn’t at Ryan Reynolds level fame, never mind Blake Lively, and she bullied him into giving her the movie where she did her own cut.”

The case exploded at the end of last year after months of rumors that the former co-stars were feuding.
Lively filed a lawsuit against Baldoni in December, accusing the actor of sexual harassment, retaliation, and attempting to “destroy” her reputation. Baldoni fervently denied the claims, responding with a countersuit against his co-star and her husband, actor Ryan Reynolds. He also sued The New York Times for $250 million in a defamation claim for an article about the drama, which he says is “rife with inaccuracies, misrepresentations, and omissions.”
Since then, Baldoni has released alleged text conversations he had with Lively in an effort to support his claims that nothing inappropriate happened. Most recently this week, Lively’s legal team issued subpoenas to crisis PR firm consultant Jed Wallace and multiple wireless carriers to determine whether Baldoni’s texts were legit.
A joint trial is scheduled for March 2026.
