Taylor Swift & Blake Lively
Gilbert Flores / John Nacion for Penske Media

The Taylor Swift wedding speculation has had many different storylines, but one particular one that people have been very interested in has had to do with Blake Lively. Swift and Lively have been friends for years, but after reports that their friendship had cooled after the legal battle between Lively and Justin Baldoni, some have wondered if we would even see Lively at Swift’s wedding. Well, it seems like we have an answer to that question.

Rob Shuter is reporting that Lively and her husband, Ryan Reynolds, will not be invited. “They are not invited. Period,” one insider said. “Taylor wants a drama-free day, and she no longer trusts Blake or Ryan.”

All of this comes after Swift ended up in the middle of Lively’s battle with Justin Baldoni over Baldoni’s conduct on the set of It Ends With Us. “Taylor felt exposed and violated,” a source told Shuter. “That crossed a line for her.”

It’s reportedly a hard no. “There’s no ‘will she or won’t she,’” another source said. “She won’t.”

Reportedly, at this point, the friends are barely speaking. “There’s been an emotional gap for a long time,” a source explained. “Rebuilding trust doesn’t feel possible right now.”

And Shuter had also reported that Kelce has never liked Reynolds. So, the plot thickens. “Travis just doesn’t trust him,” one insider said. “He thinks Ryan’s always ‘on’ — and that rubs him the wrong way.”

“Travis is blunt and real,” another insider explained. “Ryan is curated. That contrast never worked.”

Sources say Kelce put up with it for Taylor’s sake, but was never fully into the friendship. And now, he doesn’t have to be. “He kept his distance emotionally,” one source said. “He didn’t trust him enough to relax.”

“Travis doesn’t fake it,” a source explained. “If he doesn’t like you, he won’t play along.”

All of this as the topic has once again been dragged out after Swift’s texts to Blake Lively were released during Lively’s lawsuit against Justin Baldoni. But Swift hasn’t commented on it directly.

One source told Us Weekly that the singer wasn’t trying to get involved with the drama, she just wanted to be a good friend “in what she thought was a private moment,” adding, “It’s honestly been really hard for Taylor,” according to the source. “Having her texts out there made her feel exposed and kind of violated, like, something private suddenly wasn’t hers anymore. That doesn’t sit well with her.”

The alleged texts showed Lively praising Swift after a meeting that involved Lively, Swift, and Baldoni. “You were so epically heroic today,” Lively wrote. “I recapped every moment to Ryan. I kept remembering stuff — You making s*** up about me and lenses. And referring to yourself as my doll. This clown falling for all of it. But also resisting it. You are the worlds absolutely greatest friend. I won the lottery.”

Swift allegedly responded, “I WON THE LOTTERY. You are the COOLEST PERSON IN THE WORLD and you like me!!”

But a second source told Us Weekly that Taylor was just being supportive. “Even though she was sending Blake messages and went to the apartment, she wasn’t involved in creating a master plan to take anyone down,” the source said. “She was being supportive of her friend and that is it. Just as any friend would.”

And now, it seems like that friendship might be on ice. But we’ll have to wait and see who is present when the wedding bells ring.
