It appears that some fans speculate that Taylor Swift and Blake Lively, who have a long-standing friendship, may not be communicating at the moment. The rumored falling out between these celebrities is said to stem from Blake’s legal dispute with Justin Baldoni.

Taylor Swift rumored to have distanced herself from Blake Lively

It appears that the friendship between singer Taylor Swift and actress-producer Blake Lively may have cooled due to Blake’s ongoing legal issues with Baldoni. Despite Swift no longer being at risk of being called as a witness in the lawsuit, a source told Us Weekly that their relationship has become strained, suggesting it has “stagnated.” The source added that there hasn’t been any communication between Taylor and Blake since the subpoena was withdrawn.

Afterward, this resource asserted that the pair would not resume from where they left off due to lingering emotional remnants.

In 2024, the romantic drama film “It Ends with Us” saw the collaboration of Lively and Baldoni. While Lively took on the lead role, Baldoni was responsible for directing the movie and also played one of the male leads. However, in December 2024, Lively lodged a complaint with the California Civil Rights Department, alleging that Baldoni had engaged in sexual misconduct and fostered a hostile work environment. This same month, an article appeared in the New York Times (NYT), suggesting that Baldoni had employed individuals to launch a defamatory campaign against Lively, known for her role in “Café Society.

In response, Baldoni initiated a lawsuit for $250 million against the NYT. Toward the end of the month, Lively also filed a lawsuit against Baldoni, reinforcing the claims made in her initial complaint. Subsequently, Baldoni took legal action against Lively, her husband Ryan Reynolds, and their publicist Leslie Sloan for an additional $400 million.

Back in May of 2025, I found myself right smack in the middle of a legal tussle, thanks to a lawsuit that named me – Taylor Swift. Intriguingly, Baldoni’s legal squad issued a subpoena for yours truly, but here’s the twist: According to Us Weekly, their source claims the subpoena was withdrawn because information I was supposed to provide was voluntarily handed over to Baldoni’s team instead.
