Taylor Swift is known for having famous friends—see: the "squad"—and one of the most notable and public relationships is with Blake Lively. After all, Swift is the godmother to Lively's children—the two are very close. But, according to reports, some tension arose between the women due to Lively's ongoing legal dispute with her It Ends with Us director and co-star Justin Baldoni. If true, this is understandable given that no one really wants to be part of an extremely public legal dispute that doesn't directly involve them. According to Page Six, though, Lively and Swift have now made up.
To quickly recap: Lively filed a lawsuit against Baldoni in December in which she claimed sexual harassment and retaliation; he then filed a lawsuit against Lively, her husband Ryan Reynolds, and her publicist Leslie Sloane claiming defamation. There are also other related lawsuits and more detailed claims. Sloane has requested to be removed from the lawsuit. Baldoni, Lively, and Reynolds have denied the claims against them. A trial is scheduled to begin in March 2026.
