It Ends With Us author Colleen Hoover has returned to Instagram after deactivating her account amid the ongoing legal drama between Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni . Hoover, 45, left the social media platform in late January. Lively, 27, and Baldoni, 41, first clashed on the set of the film adaptation of Hoover’s bestselling novel and are currently engaged in a hostile — and highly public — legal battle.
But on Wednesday, February 12, the writer’s account resurfaced — without photos of Lively and Baldoni, and no mention of the It Ends With Us promotional tour last summer, which were previously showcased on her account. The movie, which was released in August 2024, follows Lily Bloom (Lively) as her relationship with neurosurgeon Ryle Kincard (Baldoni) becomes abusive. She eventually finds an ally in her high school love interest, Atlas Corrigan ( Brandon Sklenar ).
Baldoni — who directed the film and optioned the rights to Hoover’s novel — and Lively were not seen promoting the film together. Thank You! You have successfully subscribed.
