Taylor Swift Blake Lively Not Friends

In the video clip, Owens hints at this Daily Mail article which features comments from an insider reportedly claiming the below:

For the time being [Swift] is taking a step back from Blake because she doesn’t want to get tangled in this more than she already has – which is far more than she ever needed to be.

As outlined in the article, Swift is seemingly stepping back from her friendship with Lively after allegedly feeling used as an “intimidation tactic” in a legal dispute between Lively and “It Ends With Us” director and co-star, Justin Baldoni.

Lively and Swift have reportedly been friends for over 10 years.

Candace Owens Ryan Reynolds

Owens has been following the “It Ends With Us” lawsuit since it unfolded, with recent theories painting Lively’s husband, Ryan Reynolds, as playing a big part in the drama.

As further detailed in this Hindustan Times article, Owens recently argued that Ryan Reynolds is the “true villain” in the legal conflict between Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni. Owens shared that a tip from a former crew member indicated that Reynolds and Lively had a confrontation on set, and that Reynolds allegedly later exerted pressure on the WME talent agency to remove Baldoni from their roster. Owens also speculated that Reynolds’ actions may stem from insecurity, particularly related to his relationships.

However, there is no concrete evidence to support these claims.

Blake Lively Taylor Swift Lawsuit

Swift was unexpectedly drawn into the $400 million lawsuit when Baldoni accused Lively of using Swift’s presence to pressure him during a meeting about the film. Tensions seemingly escalated when Lively referred to herself as “Khaleesi” and compared her friends, including Swift, to “dragons” in an attempt to intimidate Baldoni.

Swift, who had not intended to be involved in the situation, has supposedly now distanced herself, aware that her involvement has affected her image, while her friends also found Lively’s actions “uncool and unnecessary.”

Although Swift herself has not confirmed the above claims outlined in the Daily Mail article, there is a lot of speculation going around surrounding the duo. There is no concrete evidence to support these claims.

Blake Lively Taylor Swift Super Bowl

Last year, Lively accompanied Swift to the Super Bowl. This year, Swift’s boyfriend, Travis Kelce, will return to the Super Bowl with the Kansas City Chiefs but it is unclear if Swift will have Lively join her.

Following recent article claims, this seems unlikely- although we will have to wait and see.
