In case you missed it, Gwyneth Paltrow has been at the centre of an eight-day civil trial over a ski crash that happened back in 2016; and the internet has had a field day.
For context, retired optometrist Terry Sanderson is seeking $300,000 USD from Paltrow to cover the alleged damages from a ski collision that occurred in Utah.
Sanderson, 76, is claiming the actor, 50, slammed into the back of him while skiing, leaving him with a concussion, brain injury, four broken ribs, and the inability to enjoy wine tastings (yes, that was mentioned).
However, Paltrow is saying it was Sanderson's fault, and is counter-suing him for one dollar, plus legal fees.
On Thursday US time, the jury decided that Sanderson was, in fact, at fault, not Paltrow.
"I felt that acquiescing to a false claim comprised my integrity," the Goop founder said in a statement following the verdict.
"I am pleased with the outcome, and I appreciate all of the hard work of Judge Holmberg and the jury, and thank them for their thoughtfulness in handling this case."
Besides the legalities, there have been some viral moments during this public trial – mostly involving Gwynny. Here are some of them.
1. Gwyneth Paltrow's courtroom dressing.
Starting off with the first thing everyone noticed: Paltrow's quiet luxury courtroom dressing.
While no big logos or obvious designer labels, the actor looks expensive, wearing cream cashmere and tailored coats. But no one's sure about her choice of glasses.
