Pop icon Taylor Swift has reportedly cut ties with longtime friend Blake Lively due to complications arising from Lively’s ongoing legal dispute with actor-director Justin Baldoni. Sources suggest that Swift regrets her friendship with Lively, citing the stress and controversy surrounding the case.
The feud between Lively and Baldoni began in December 2024, when Lively accused Baldoni of misconduct during the making of It Ends With Us. Baldoni later countersued, alleging defamation and extortion. Swift was briefly subpoenaed in the case but was ultimately removed from legal proceedings.
Reports indicate that Swift and her boyfriend, NFL star Travis Kelce, have distanced themselves from Lively and her husband, Ryan Reynolds, following the fallout. While Swift has not publicly commented on the matter, insiders claim she is relieved to be out of the drama.
