Taylor Swift appears to have slammed the door on her decade-long friendship with former bestie Blake Lively.

The 35-year-old singer has been ignoring Blake’s texts and no longer trusts her the same way because she feels “betrayed” and “exploited,” according to sources.

“I wonder if Taylor will do a ‘breakup’ album about Blake like she does with her exes?” one commented online.

Highlights
  • Taylor Swift has reportedly "cut ties" with Blake Lively, a source claimed.
  • The singer felt “betrayed” and “exploited” after being dragged into the legal drama between Blake and Justin Baldoni.
  • Blake has been sending texts, voicemails, and emails to her former bestie, the source said.

    The rumored rift between Taylor and Blake stems from the Gossip Girl alum’s legal battle with Justin Baldoni over the film It Ends With Us.

    The Love Story singer, who is also a godmother to Blake’s daughters, was subpoenaed as a witness by Justin’s lawyers last month.

    Justin’s team even accused Blake’s lawyer, Michael Gottlieb, of threatening to release private text messages between the two friends unless Taylor publicly supported Blake in her legal battle against Justin.

    Amid rumors of tension between the two friends, a source said this week that the pop diva has “cut ties” with the actress, even though Blake has been “begging” to fix their friendship.

    “Even though Taylor has totally cut ties with her, Blake hasn’t with Taylor,” they told the Daily Mail.

    “She’s been reaching out to her with texts, voicemails and even emails begging to mend what they once had,” they said. “Blake isn’t giving up on trying to get her friendship with Taylor back on track.”

    The I Knew You Were Trouble singer has not responded to any of the actress’s “pleas.”

    “She’s ignored all her grovelling excuses,” they added.

    “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,” the source continued.

    The two friends, who first connected in 2015, have supported each other over the years and attended several events together. But reports claimed Taylor was hurt after being dragged into Blake’s legal drama.

    Their friendship “has halted” because Taylor “wants no part in this drama,” a source claimed

    A source even told People last month that their friendship “has halted” because Taylor “wants no part in this drama.”

    However, insiders claimed to the outlet this week that the two superstars have made progress in mending their relationship.

    “Their friendship isn’t the same as it was before,” but they are still working towards being “on good terms,” a source told People.

    The insider noted that they are not as close as before and aren’t “spending as much time together as they did in the past.”

    Taylor had no official role, except for allowing the use of one of her songs in the film It Ends With Us, starring Blake and Justin in the lead roles.

    During the film’s production, tensions struck between the two co-stars, and Taylor found herself entangled in the mess as well.

    Court documents revealed that Blake and her husband Ryan Reynolds had a meeting in their penthouse with Justin after the feud began on set.

    Taylor was in the apartment at the time and had no idea that Justin, the movie’s director and lead, was meeting Blake and Ryan, a source previously told TMZ.

    According to the source, Taylor believed Blake timed the meeting so that the singer would arrive before Justin left.

    When they were introduced to each other, the Fortnight singer told Justin she was excited to see It Ends With Us because he was her bestie’s boss.

    “Taylor really wishes Blake hadn’t dragged her into this whole situation,” an insider told Page Six in February.

    After Blake and Justin filed lawsuits against each other, the actor’s lawyers sent subpoenas to Taylor and her legal team.

    “This document subpoena is designed to use Taylor Swift’s name to draw public interest by creating tabloid clickbait instead of focusing on the facts of the case,” a spokesperson for Taylor said in a May statement.

    The Lover singer “never set foot on the set of this movie” and wasn’t involved “in any casting or creative decisions,” the spokesperson said.

    Permitting the use of her song My Tears Ricochet was the only connection Taylor had to the film, they added.

    The subpoena was dropped after Taylor’s legal team objected and called the legal order an “unwarranted fishing expedition.”

    Netizens had mixed reactions to Taylor allegedly ignoring Blake’s text messages.

    “It sounds like Taylor doorslammed her like a pro,” one said, while another wrote, “Who cares both are narcissistic af.”

    “If she’s wondering why TS is ghosting her, she should simply look in the mirror,” said another.

    BP sure dislikes Lively and seems to take pleasure in the notion that she may be 'groveling' which is pretty dark.
