The actress shared resources for wildfire victims while pursuing legal action over allegations of harassment and retaliation on a film set.
- Blake Lively returned to social media to share resources for those affected by the Los Angeles wildfires, including shelter and aid links compiled by Mutual Aid LA.
- The wildfires, fueled by Santa Ana winds, have destroyed thousands of structures, displaced over 80,000 people, and claimed at least five lives since they began on January 7.
- Lively's Instagram posts marked her first public communication since filing a lawsuit against her 'It Ends With Us' co-star and director Justin Baldoni, alleging sexual harassment and a retaliatory smear campaign.

- Lively’s legal team emphasized that her claims highlight systemic issues of harassment and retaliation in the workplace, vowing to pursue justice in federal court.
