Taylor Swift, Blake Lively End Friendship Amid Legal Dispute

Taylor Swift and Blake Lively's decade-long friendship has reportedly ended amid a legal dispute between Lively and Justin Baldoni, during which Lively was accused of threatening to leak Swift's private texts to secure Swift's public support. Insiders say the leaked messages contained sensitive details about Swift's personal life, prompting her to distance herself from Lively and leading Travis Kelce to unfollow Ryan Reynolds. Swift's father, Scott Swift, is alleged to have voluntarily disclosed some private exchanges to shield his daughter from deeper involvement in the scandal. Lively’s legal team has denied the extortion allegations, and a judge has struck those claims from legal documents as irrelevant and inflammatory. The public rift has ended their high-profile friendship, highlighting the fragility of celebrity alliances. Meanwhile, Swift continues to spark speculation about major announcements at upcoming events.
