Reports claimed Taylor Swift and Blake Lively are no longer friends.

Blake Lively's messy legal battle with her It Ends With Us costar Justin Baldoni shockingly dragged Swift into the drama after the "I Knew It I Knew You" singer's private text messages were unsealed in court.

Initial reports claimed Swift snubbed Lively and her husband, Ryan Reynolds, by not inviting them to her star-studded wedding to Kelce.

"Taylor's in a different place now and she just wants to be around people she trusts and who bring her peace," one source said. "It's a shame because she and Blake really were close, but she doesn't think it's something that's going to be fixed. As far as [Taylor's] concerned, their friendship is done."

However, a separate source said Lively and Swift had "spoken on the phone" after the "Lover" singer extended an olive branch by inviting her to the nuptials.

"Everyone around Taylor is aware that Blake could attend. She may not, but that won't be because she isn't welcome," the source told Daily Mail.

A second source added, "Blake is on the cusp of getting a second chance, and they have had some loose conversations to test the waters to get the trust back. Blake is slowly getting back into the fold now that Taylor is having a change of heart."

"I thought it was gonna be a c--- show," he said, adding, "I love Travis and Jason [Kelce], and I've only met Taylor one time. But, yeah, I did get an invite, but I said, 'Hey, you know what, that's just too much. I just want to hang out and play golf, but I don't want to dress up and all that other stuff.' But I appreciate the invitation, it was pretty special."

Jaime King's son, Leo, is Taylor Swift's godson.

In a statement to Page Six, a representative for Jaime King disclosed why the model missed her son's godmother's wedding.

"The reason Jaime chose Taylor as Leo Thames's godmother is because they both believe that being a godmother is a deeply personal and spiritual commitment that has nothing to do with public appearances," said Jane Owen.

The publicist explained, "Leo Thames is still too young for a large adult wedding celebration, but he and his mother were able to joyfully celebrate Taylor and Kelce's marriage in his own very special, age-appropriate way during his summer break."
