Taylor Swift has not been in touch with Blake Lively, claims ‘source’
Taylor Swift and Blake Lively’s friendship is still suffering a fallout post the actor’s recent legal win after the court dismissed her “It Ends with Us” co-star, Justin Baldoni’s lawsuit. Per Us Weekly, a “source” told them, “Although it was great news for Blake, she hasn’t rekindled her friendship with Taylor yet.”
The “insider” further claimed that Taylor Swift “has not been in touch with” Blake Lively. The person said that the pop artist “still does not want to discuss anything to do with the lawsuit.” However, the “source” said to the news outlet that the “The Age of Adaline” actor is still “hopeful” that she and the singer will mend and revive their long-time “friendship.” After that, the person added, “But as of now, there is still distance.”
Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni have been at the center of a long-standing legal dispute for quite some time now. It all began with the filing of Swift’s lawsuit against Baldoni back in December 2024. In January, the “It Ends with Us” director filed a counter lawsuit against Swift in the case. Subsequently, Baldoni’s lawyer went on to subpoena Taylor Swift in court.
However, the summons was reportedly withdrawn in May. At the time, Lively’s representative told the news outlet, “We supported the efforts of Taylor’s team to quash these inappropriate subpoenas directed to her counsel.” “We will continue to stand up for any third party who is unjustly harassed or threatened in the process,” the rep added.
