Vanity fair in 2017.”[But then] we were like, 'Oh no, that's exactly what they want.' They wanted us all to go out. They wanted us all to wear the same clothes as on the show. They wanted that because it fed their whole story. People could delve into this world.”

Managerial Joshua Safran continued to tell Vanity Fair that Lively and Badgley “hid their breakup from the crew” because they “didn't want their personal drama to be connected to the show.”
