We have no idea where the court will stand in the Justin Baldoni and Blake Lively legal battle yet, but the public? It’s crystal clear which side they’re leaning!
According to data from QR Code Generator, the actress has lost a LOT of followers on Instagram amid the It Ends With Us drama and the ensuing legal battle. How many? A whopping 864,085 since September! NEARLY A MILLION!
Her numbers dramatically decreased in January when Justin filed his lawsuit with all that evidence seemingly disproving her harassment claims. During that period alone she lost 329,577 followers. This is apparently her largest drop in five years! Whoa! Her followers have continued to go down this month, with 363,930 hitting the unfollow button. Yikes. She still has a lot of followers, about 44.7 million — but still, that’s a big exodus!

As for Justin? Per the report, the director has actually gained supporters on the ‘gram — 230,896 of them! Damn! The filmmaker has 4.2 million followers now, and that number may continue to rise as the legal battle proceeds. Check it out (below):
Blake wasn’t always losing followers, though! Marc Porcar, CEO of QR Code Generator PRO S.L., reportedly mentioned that she actually gained 46,624 followers between December 21 to January 3. Notably, that was when we were all talking about The New York Times article regarding her sexual harassment and smear campaign complaint against Justin. Notably, we hadn’t gotten his side of the story yet! As Porcar points out:
“However, Justin Baldoni’s lawsuits changed everything, and Lively saw the biggest drop among her followers in five years. Baldoni, on the other hand, seems to have fallen into the public opinion’s grace. As new evidence comes to light, we could see tables turning once again—or Lively and Reynolds facing even deeper repercussions.”
Of course, Blake is not hurting for followers as she still has 44 million of them — at least for now! But this does say a lot about which way the public is swaying! And it is not toward Team Blake!
