Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds Hit With $2.1 Million in Property Liens: Report

Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds' upstate New York property has been hit with more than $2.1 million in unpaid contractor debt, The Daily Mail reports.

Westchester County filings show five separate contractors and subcontractors filed mechanic's liens against the property in April 2026. According to official records reviewed by the publication, the outstanding claims total exactly $2,108,856.63.

The 110-acre estate was purchased through an LLC beginning in 2018. During a previous town planning board hearing, Lively described the site as a "beautiful buffer" for their family. Plans for the site include a main residence, a pool house, a separate gym, geothermal heating, and custom copper roofing.

According to the filed documents, the unpaid work spans multiple construction sectors across the 110-acre estate:

• Flower Construction (FlowCon Inc.): This firm filed the largest single lien against the property, totaling $1,356,157.54. The scope of their extensive contract included structural framing, the installation of HVAC systems, comprehensive plumbing and electrical work, as well as drywall, masonry, and waterproofing. They were also responsible for the property's aesthetic finishes, including painting and high-end millwork.
• Specialized Subcontractors: A group of four additional contractors filed claims regarding technical aspects of the estate's development. These filings seek outstanding payments for custom copper roofing, complex drainage and septic systems, geothermal excavation, and structural steel fabrication. Detailed finish work, such as rough carpentry and trim installation, is also cited in the unpaid claims.

County records indicate that while construction activity on the site was consistent throughout late 2025, all work effectively ceased between December 2025 and early 2026. The liens were subsequently filed in April 2026, bringing the total outstanding debt to $2,108,856.63.

The Daily Mail notes these property liens arrive immediately following a high-profile legal battle between Lively and her It Ends With Us co-star, Justin Baldoni. With the outlet claiming: "According to reports, no money changed hands in the settlement despite months of explosive allegations, leaked messages and legal filings."

The dispute cost both sides tens of millions of dollars in legal fees and ended in a settlement earlier this month, just two weeks before the scheduled trial. Court records show Lively is currently continuing her push to recover legal fees and damages tied to Baldoni's failed countersuit, after a judge denied her latest request to submit additional filings.

Parade has reached out to representatives for the contractors, Reynolds and Lively for comment.
