No money changed hands in the settlement between Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni, but the legal fight between the “It Ends With Us” co-stars is not quite over.

Lively still has a pending motion for attorneys’ fees and damages in connection with Baldoni’s failed defamation suit against her.

“Anyone purporting to confirm the terms of the confidential settlement at this point is misleading you,” said a source close to the matter. “More information about this confidential settlement will be on the court’s docket in the coming days.”
