LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Pop icon Taylor Swift has kept her distance from her close friend, Blake Lively, after her name was mentioned in Lively and Justin Baldoni's legal documents.

However, it seems like Selena Gomez might have warned the pop icon about the 'It Ends with Us' actress' odd behavior way before the drama unfolded, an insider claimed.

Before Lively was in the middle of a $400 million lawsuit with her 'It Ends With Us' co-star, she was closest to the 'Blank Space' singer. Due to this, her name was also mentioned the their legal documents.

However, as per Radar Online, an insider informed the Daily Mail, "Gomez warned Taylor about Blake, raising her concerns years ago. Blake called Taylor her best friend and family and then asked her to be the godmother of her children."

A different source revealed that Gomez felt suspicious of how close the two were getting.

Interestingly, Swift and Lively have often been spotted out together in their decades-long friendship. Swift is also the godmother of Lively's daughters James, 10, Inez, eight, and Betty, five, and her son Olin, two, per the outlet.

However, the source told the Daily Mail that none of this ever mattered to Gomez as she "always found this odd, but she let it be. So everything that is happening now comes as no surprise at all to Selena."

Now, after years, Swift's name has been involved in the Baldoni drama, and this has impacted their decades-long friendship.

Lively reportedly referred to Swift and Ryan Reynolds as her "dragons" in a text message to Baldoni included in the lawsuit. Baldoni shared the screenshots of the messages as part of his countersuit, which he filed in January 2025.

Following this, Swift is set to be subpoenaed soon as she is dragged into the Hollywood mess.

The insider claimed that Gomez "wishes no one harm or ill will" to anyone involved, and she is "glad" Swift is finally seeing what she's "felt for years" regarding Lively.

The source informed the Daily Mail, "Selena wishes Taylor was not involved in this and will be there for her however she can."

Travis Kelce unfollows Ryan Reynolds on social media

Kansas City Chiefs star and Taylor Swift's boyfriend, Travis Kelce, unfollowed Ryan Reynolds on Instagram on Sunday, April 27, sparking a wave of speculation online.

So far, Swift has remained silent about the legal conflict between Baldoni and Lively. The pop icon and the NFL star have also enjoyed several double dates over the years with Lively and Reynolds, who have regularly supported the Chiefs tight end at games.

Interestingly, fans first spotted that Kelce and Reynolds were following each other on Instagram in August 2023, after the NFL star began his relationship with Swift.

Moreover, Reynolds has been close to Swift for years because of her friendship with his wife, Blake. Over the years, Swift has even referenced the couple’s children in her music, which highlights their bond.

However, with the current scenario, things don't seem to be all good between the couples.
