Blake Lively enjoyed a fun-filled day at a theme park this week, even as her legal proceedings with Justin Baldoni progress.
The 38-year-old starlet, who recently shared highlights from her idyllic week in the Cotswolds, took to her Instagram stories on Tuesday to showcase her adventures at the Nickelodeon Universe Theme Park in New Jersey.
This outing follows a series of legal victories for Baldoni as he continues his lawsuit against his former publicist.
In one of the photos, Lively is seen with Kendall Glazer, co-founder of Stoney Clover Lane, as they posed alongside a character from Paw Patrol.
The Gossip Girl star radiated happiness, dressed casually yet stylishly in a gray turtleneck and light blue jeans.
Her blonde locks flowed down past her shoulders in light waves while a yellow cap was placed on top of her head.

The star also had fun on a Fairly Oddparents ride as she simultaneously talked on the phone.
She added text over the photo which read ‘Work from home’ but then crossed out home to replace the word with ‘roller coaster.’
Lively had the chance to try out the Human Crane experience as she won a few items such as an inflatable donut.
‘I’ve never had so much fun being humiliated in public,’ the Hollywood actress captioned the reel.
The star reposted a snap shared by Glazer as the pair joined another pal to show off their wristbands to enter the theme park.
It is not known if Lively was also joined by her children James, 11, Inez, nine, Betty, six, and Otis, three – whom she shares with husband Ryan Reynolds.
However, the couple were recently spotted over the past weekend attending the Broadway show Just In Time in NYC with their three eldest kids, per a viral video on X.
Lively has been active on social media and uploaded an Instagram carousel on Sunday to offer a glimpse into her latest trip to the U.K. with Reynolds.

It also appeared that their children had the chance to take part in the getaway as well as her sister Robyn.
She included a series of images that were taken when both she and the Deadpool actor cheered on his Wrexham soccer team at a match in Wales – although the team lost to Chelsea.
Lively and Reynolds also paused for a quick selfie as they spent quality time together on the trip.
They visited the Soho Farmhouse – which is a members only social club and hotel located in Oxfordshire.
One blurry picture was taken as Reynolds carried one of their kids on his shoulders while strolling through a garden.
She wrote in the caption: ‘so grateful for the best week with my loved ones.
‘Thank you @wrexham_afc and all the players and everyone who works at that stadium for the performance of a lifetime. The greatest 10,000 people to share an emotional roller coaster with is in Wrexham.’
She concluded with, ‘shout out to everyone (like my sweet sister in slide 10) who thinks someone is taking a photo of their cute outfit, when it’s really a video.’

Her latest visit to the Nickelodeon theme park comes only days after Baldoni scored a series of positive outcomes amid their ongoing legal war.
The presiding judge agreed to set new dates for pretrial proceedings, while allowing a lawsuit he’s filed to move forward.
A federal judge said that Wayfarer, Baldoni’s production firm, is authorized to continue in its defamation case against his ex-publicist Stephanie Jones, legal documents reviewed by Daily Mail revealed.
Wayfarer claimed in legal docs that Jones told Lively, Reynolds and Lively representative Leslie Sloane that the production firm had sought to smear Lively’s reputation after she accused Baldoni of sexual misconduct.
Jones had petitioned the court to dismiss the lawsuit, but the court ruled that claims the firm made regarding Baldoni’s one-time publicist merited further probing, according to legal documents.
Jones also was rebuffed in her request to attach producer Jamey Heath to ongoing litigation, according to court docs.
Daily Mail reached out to representatives for Baldoni and Lively for further comment on the story.
A Wayfarer representative told Daily Mail last Thursday in a statement: ‘We’re pleased with the Court’s decision to deny Stephanie Jones’ attempt to dismiss Wayfarer’s lawsuit and to allow our core claims, including defamation and bad faith conduct, to move forward.’

The decision came after Baldoni’s legal team claimed Lively’s side bombarded them with an overload of documents as a tactical move with the trial looming in May; seen above in It Ends With Us (2024)
The judge ruled in favor of Baldoni and Wayfarer, also extending deadlines in the case, with an April 2 status conference on the docket.
The decision came after Baldoni’s legal team claimed Lively’s side bombarded them with an overload of documents as a tactical move with the trial looming in May.
Lawyers for Baldoni and other people associated with Wayfarer asked Southern District of New York Judge Lewis J. Liman for a Zoom meeting, and an extra week for filing deadlines and the pretrial conference.
Baldoni’s legal team said in the filing that Lively’s attorneys jammed up the proceedings with ‘voluminous disclosures that are not practical for trial purposes,’ according to court docs reviewed by People.
Lively’s attorneys submitted an ‘overbreadth’ of almost 1,000 items as possible exhibits and 40 people who could possibly serve as witnesses, Baldoni’s legal team said in their filing.
With the trial rapidly approaching, Baldoni’s lawyers said that it was not appropriate for them to have to contend with a ‘document dump’ in which they would have to review ‘voluminous amounts of plainly inadmissible material.’

Baldoni’s attorneys said it was essential to get more time as they go over the materials submit by the opposition; and instructions for the trial jurors.
Lawyers for Baldoni said it was also ‘premature’ for a verdict sheet in the case to be prepared with so many moving parts, including a motion to dismiss filed by their side.
Lively’s lawyers said March 26 that the requests made by the other side – claiming a ‘document dump’ – were nothing more than ‘an incremental tactic to delay the trial’ that ‘should not be rewarded.’
The latest developments in Baldoni’s favor come after he and Lively sat with Magistrate Judge Sarah L. Cave in a six-hour settlement meeting, in which they could not come to an accord ahead of a slated May 18 trial opening.
The contentious legal battle has gone on more than a year: In December of 2024, Lively named Baldoni in a lawsuit accusing him of sexual harassment, retaliatory conduct, and intentional infliction of emotional stress.

Lively also named a number of Baldoni’s collaborators, including his company Wayfarer Studios, the studio’s CEO and financial backer, and PR personnel.
Baldoni had initially asked for $250 million in damages from The New York Times, mentioning a report it published on the topic that he claimed was defamatory, then added it to the $400 million lawsuit he filed in January 2025.
In the suit, Baldoni named Lively, her spouse Ryan Reynolds and her publicist Leslie Sloane, citing the aforementioned report in legal documents. It was thrown out of court in June of last year.
All parties have denied all of the allegations against them.
