Taylor Swift’s once-close friendship with actress Blake Lively appears to have hit an irreparable low and this time, the fallout has spilled beyond Hollywood gossip.

Taylor Swift reportedly felt ‘used’ as Blake Lively’s legal drama unfolded
“They’ve had no contact,” a source told Page Six, saying that Taylor Swift and Blake Lively haven’t spoken since last Winter when the drama surrounding the case began unfolding.Swift and Lively were once known for their tight bond, from celebrating holidays with Ryan Reynolds to swapping creative notes on scripts and music videos. But when Lively filed a lawsuit against Baldoni in late 2024 alleging sexual harassment, retaliation, and breach of contract, things took a dark turn. Baldoni hit back with a staggering $400 million countersuit in January 2025, claiming Lively weaponized her friendship with Swift.According to court documents, Baldoni even alleged that Lively referred to Swift and Reynolds as her “dragons”, implying that her powerful friends were part of a calculated strategy to intimidate him. “The message could not have been clearer,” his filing read. “Baldoni was not just dealing with Lively. He was also facing Lively’s ‘dragons,’ two of the most influential and wealthy celebrities in the world.”Sources close to Swift told Page Six the ordeal left the Grammy-winning artist feeling deeply betrayed. “Taylor really wishes Blake hadn’t dragged her into this whole situation,” one insider said, adding that the pop icon “cherishes genuine friendships” but now “can’t help but feel used.” Another source said Swift was “furious” that her name became collateral in Lively’s public feud.

As Swift navigates the aftermath of the friendship fallout, her focus seems to have shifted back to her music and personal life with Travis Kelce. The singer recently released her highly anticipated album The Life of a Showgirl on October 3 and has been spotted cheering for Kelce at multiple Kansas City Chiefs games.Despite the ongoing media frenzy surrounding the Lively-Baldoni lawsuit, Swift appears determined to protect her peace and her relationship. With Kelce by her side, she’s staying out of the Hollywood drama that once revolved around her inner circle, signaling that this “dragon” might be breathing fire only for herself now.Also Read:“Getting messy”: Taylor Swift’s gift to Teyana Taylor ignites backlash as fans accuse her of subtly shading Travis Kelce’s ex Kayla Nicole
