Blake Lively Reunites 'Gossip Girl' Co-Star Amid Ongoing Legal Battle

Blake Lively reunited with her Gossip Girl co-star Zuzanna Szadkowski, known for playing Dorota, in a new commercial promoting Lively's Betty Booze vodka iced teas. The ad, set on a park bench, features playful dialogue referencing their iconic characters and fan theories from the original series, creating a nostalgic moment for fans without officially naming the characters. Szadkowski praises the drinks as "crisp, balanced, nothing artificial," while Lively fondly acknowledges missing her co-star. The commercial also includes a nod to a viral moment from Gossip Girl's sixth season, with Lively revealing sweatpants and Ugg boots under a couture dress. This reunion comes amid Lively's ongoing legal battle with Justin Baldoni, whom she sued in December 2024 for sexual harassment on the set of their film. The ad highlights both the enduring appeal of Gossip Girl nostalgia and Lively's continued public presence beyond her acting roles.
