Overview

• Multiple outlets report Lively did not reach out or publicly congratulate Swift after the singer announced her engagement to Travis Kelce.
• Unnamed sources quoted by the Daily Mail and echoed elsewhere say Lively does not plan to contact Swift and does not expect to be part of the wedding.
• Public sightings of the pair have ceased since October 2024, reinforcing perceptions that the longtime friendship has cooled.
• Lively’s dispute with director Justin Baldoni remains the backdrop: Baldoni’s $400 million countersuit has been dismissed, and his filings included alleged texts referencing Swift.
• Swift was subpoenaed in May as a potential witness before Baldoni’s team withdrew the subpoena; her representatives called it a bid for publicity, and court-ordered discovery continues ahead of a March 9, 2026 trial date.
