"13 years later… we’re still dancing. ❤️ Happy anniversary, my love. I’m pretty sure this was the exact moment my pants ripped open. �� #FinallyTeenagers," the 42-year-old actor wrote. Emily, 41, shared a black-and-white photograph taken after their wedding ceremony. She captioned the image, "Marriage: still my favorite lift. �� Thirteen, baby!!" Commenters on Emily's post quickly suggested that her choice of words was a jab at Blake Lively. Lively had previously been involved in a legal dispute with Baldoni that started in December 2024. Part of Lively's allegations included a claim that Baldoni made negative comments about her weight while preparing for a scene in the movie It Ends With Us where he had to pick her up. One commenter replied to Emily's post, "She’s a savage with the play-on word.. ," while another wrote, "I bet you this lift did not hurt his back!" Moving forward after legal resolution Emily has supported her husband through the legal conflict with Lively. The dispute began when Lively filed a complaint against Baldoni and others alleging sexual harassment, followed by what her attorneys called a retaliatory public smear campaign. Lively's sexual harassment claim was later dismissed, and the parties reached a settlement in May. On July 8, the Baldonis addressed their experiences in an Instagram video. "We are healing," Justin said in the video message. "If you’ve ever been through something traumatic, you know that healing isn’t linear. It looks different every day. We have had to rethink for ourselves what is real, and what matters. It’s this. It’s our family, it’s our friends, it’s our community, who have been there for us, it’s our faith." Blake Lively.

At the time, he compared their long-term bond to a secure structure. "For my family, we view marriage as a fortress," Justin said. "And a fortress is something that you build yourself, that protects you from the winds of the world, and then the trials and the tests that come your way." He added that keeping a broader perspective helps keep their relationship grounded. "We’re just people in this big, massive floating rock in the middle of a universe that is constantly expanding that doesn’t have a beginning or an end," he noted. "And then you’re like, oh, okay, well ... " Featured image credit: John Nacion / Getty
