Once hailed as a cornerstone of Taylor Swift’s tight-knit A-list girl squad, Blake Lively is now allegedly scrambling to repair her fractured relationship with the global pop icon.
Following nearly a year of silence between the two friends, reports now suggest that Lively is “desperate” for reconciliation—but not with the rest of the crew, including Selena Gomez and Gigi Hadid. And while Taylor has seemingly moved on—with Travis Kelce by her side and a fresh circle forming around her—Lively is reportedly refusing to accept the friendship is over.
The once-glamorous bond between Taylor Swift and Blake Lively came under fire when Lively’s name was indirectly linked to a lawsuit involving actor-director Justin Baldoni.
According to court documents, Baldoni claimed that Swift and his co-star pressured him into revising the It Ends With Us script. Although Swift denied involvement, the mere association reportedly prompted the pop star to quietly distance herself from Lively, causing a cold drift that fans noticed at public events and on social media.
Now, insiders claim Lively is working overtime to make amends—with no intention of extending olive branches to the other women in the group.
“Blake’s desperately hoping that Taylor will forgive her, but of course, there’s no guarantee that she will be let back into her inner circle,” a source told a foreign magazine. “Yes, the lines of communication are open – but when Taylor cuts someone off, it’s usually for life. Still, Blake isn’t ready to give up.
”The Gossip Girl alum is reportedly enlisting mutual friends—including Hugh Jackman and Salma Hayek—to help her win back Swift’s trust.
“Blake is devastated that things have gotten to this place, and she’s refusing to accept that their friendship is over. She loves Taylor and misses her terribly and she’ll do anything to fix this. She’s been texting and calling Taylor, pleading for forgiveness,” the insider added.
Interestingly, sources also claim that Travis Kelce has become an unexpected figure in the drama. As Swift’s relationship with the NFL star grows more serious, some insiders speculate that Kelce is quietly acting as an emotional buffer, encouraging Swift to remain guarded.
“Travis has Taylor’s back completely,” one source hinted. “He knows who’s really been there for her, and who hasn’t.”As for Selena Gomez, Gigi Hadid, and Cara Delevingne, the rift may be beyond repair. “They acted like they were her friends, but the moment Taylor was upset, they showed their true colours,” the source concluded. “It’s something Blake will never forget.”Also Read: “Gayer than gay s*x”: Cowboys fan ridiculed for getting bizarre Travis Kelce tattoo to gain Taylor Swift's attention
