It Ends With Us author Colleen Hoover has scrubbed Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni from her Instagram feed.
The writer has even culled a photo that Lively had tagged her in, the Daily Mail reports.
Hoover penned the 2016 novel that was adapted into the 2024 movie now at the centre of a toxic legal battle between Lively and the film's director and co-lead Baldoni.
In December, she issued a statement in support of Lively after the actor filed a lawsuit alleging sexual harassment.
Baldoni claims Lively used her superior star power to persuade Hoover to side with her.
Previously, the Texas-based author had enjoyed a friendly relationship with Baldoni, with emails included in his $400 million countersuit filed last month showing Hoover had told him, "There is no one better for the project," when suggesting he play the male lead.
As the legal fight ramped up three weeks ago, Hoover deleted her Instagram account and with it the December statement that described Lively as "honest, kind, supportive and patient".
Now her page has been relaunched with all traces of both Baldoni and Lively removed, among them photos taken during the promotion of the movie, which premiered in August.
Instead, the best-selling author is focused on the upcoming adaptation of her 2018 thriller Verity, which will star Anne Hathaway.
