Blake Lively is reportedly attempting to rekindle her friendship with Taylor Swift after their relationship reportedly soured amid legal drama involving Justin Baldoni. A new report suggests that the Gossip Girl star is “begging” the pop star to reconnect.

Are Blake Lively And Taylor Swift Trying To Mend Their Friendship?

The 35-year-old singer allegedly distanced herself from actress Blake Lively, known for A Simple Favor, after being drawn into Baldoni’s legal dispute. However, sources tell Daily Mail that, “Even though Taylor has totally cut ties with her, Blake hasn’t with Taylor,” they said. “She’s been reaching out to her with texts, voicemails and even emails begging to mend what they once had. Blake isn’t giving up on trying to get her friendship with Taylor back on track. Taylor hasn’t responded to any of Blake’s pleas. She’s ignored all her grovelling excuses. The missives explain there must be some misunderstanding on Taylor’s part and that she would never do anything to harm their ten years of closeness and personal secrets. Taylor obviously still means so much to Blake, but Taylor’s totally done with her and as of right now, no requests will mend their bond as far as she’s concerned.”

An insider told People on June 3 that Tay and Blake are working towards being “on good terms,” but that “their friendship isn’t the same as it was before.” They added that the pair “aren’t as close and haven’t been spending as much time together as they did in the past” and that “Taylor is working to trust Blake again but it’s going to take some time.”

On top of that, a source told Us Weekly on May 31 that “there’s been radio silence between Taylor and Blake since the subpoena was dropped,” that the friendship is “stalled,” and that “they won’t pick up where they left off because of all the emotional residue.”

Consequently, Baldoni’s legal team subpoenaed Swift to testify as a witness in his and Lively’s scheduled trial in March 2026. Although the subpoena was later dismissed, it reportedly caused a rift between Lively and Swift. A previous report indicated that Swift felt “used” and “doesn’t appreciate being referred to as one of Blake’s dragons.”
