Taylor Swift was spotted enjoying a night out in New Orleans on Saturday, accompanied by the HAIM sisters. Notably absent was Blake Lively, amid reports of tension between the two friends. Sources suggest that Swift has distanced herself from Lively due to the latter’s ongoing legal battle with Justin Baldoni, which has reportedly strained their friendship.
Blake Lively has accused Baldoni of sexual harassment during the production of “It Ends with Us,” leading to a complex legal dispute. Baldoni has denied the allegations and filed defamation lawsuits in response.
The controversy has had wider implications, affecting Lively’s relationships within the entertainment industry, including her friendship with Swift. Reports indicate that Swift excluded Lively from her Super Bowl guest list, reflecting the strain caused by the legal proceedings.
Despite these challenges, Lively and her husband, Ryan Reynolds, remain united and supportive of each other. Reynolds recently celebrated a win at the 2025 Critics Choice Awards for “Deadpool & Wolverine,” expressing gratitude on social media.#newsafro_
