Martha Stewart once shared some very strong opinions about Blake Lively and her now-defunct blog - titled Preserve - and she did not hold back. The actress, now 37, launched the lifestyle blog in the summer of 2014, but unfortunately shuttered its doors only one year later in 2015.

Now, with Lively entangled in a contentious legal battle with It Ends With Us costar Justin Baldoni, users on TikTok are taking a look back at some of her old posts on the site. The website was not only a place where readers could read about style, food and art, but they could also buy various products.

In fact, Vanity Fair once wrote that the items for sale were 'all seemingly designed for a southern-themed bridal shower.'. The blog also caught some heat in October 2014, after an editorial was posted about the 'allure' of the Antebellum South. When Lively decided to shut down the blog, she gave a long interview about it to Vogue, explaining that 'it never caught up to its original mission.'.

'It's not making a difference in people's lives, whether superficially or in a meaningful way,' the Gossip Girl told the outlet at the time. Martha Stewart once shared some strong opinions on Blake Lively 's and her now-defunct blog, Preserve - and she didn't hold back.

The actress, 37, launched the lifestyle blog in the summer of 2014, but unfortunately shuttered its doors only one year later in 2015. And, it looked like homemaking queen Martha Stewart agreed with Lively's sentiments, as she told Us Weekly that sometimes, it's just best to let a project go.
