Lively is embroiled in a $400 million lawsuit with Baldoni, and it’s the inclusion of text messages between Lively and Swift that’s caused significant tension. In court filings, Baldoni revealed Lively had referred to Swift and her husband, Ryan Reynolds, as her “dragons”-a term she used to describe supporters-comparing herself to the “Game of Thrones” character, Khaleesi.
According to sources, Swift was blindsided by the revelation and had no idea she was being referenced in the lawsuit until she saw it in the headlines. The situation has left the singer furious and questioning the loyalty of her longtime friend.
“Taylor is having some serious second thoughts about her friendship with Blake right now,” a source shared.
“The whole Justin drama is totally out of control, and it seems like Blake has kind of thrown Taylor under the bus.”
Swift is known for maintaining a carefully crafted public image as America’s sweetheart, and sources say she’s deeply concerned about how the ongoing lawsuit is affecting her reputation. Her close-knit squad is reportedly also growing uneasy about the situation and its impact on both Lively and Reynolds.
“She’s determined to protect that image,” the insider added.
“It seems like Blake is putting that at risk, and Taylor‘s not happy about it.”
Swift has reportedly invited Lively and Reynolds to join her at the upcoming Super Bowl, where she will be cheering on her boyfriend, Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce.
However, the legal turmoil surrounding Lively‘s lawsuit is reportedly complicating Swift‘s ability to fully enjoy the weekend. She’s concerned that any continued involvement in the drama could distract Kelce and damage her own public perception.
