The tension reportedly started with the controversy between Blake Lively and Justin Baldwin. The two actors starred in the film It Ends with Us. After the film’s release, Blake accused Justin of sexual harassment. This led to a highly publicized legal battle.

Sources say that their conflict had already begun during filming. After the premiere, Blake spoke out publicly about her accusations. Justin Baldwin’s legal team then released recordings and videos to defend him.

One of these recordings has drawn Taylor Swift into the scandal. In the leaked audio, Blake reportedly tells Justin, “I am Khaleesi, and my dragons protect what I stand for.” She was allegedly referring to her husband, Ryan Reynolds, and Taylor Swift as her “dragons.”
