Ryan Reynolds may be the Marvel hero fans cannot get enough of, but when it comes to real-life resilience, Blake Lively is the one with the nerves of steel. 2024 started as a comeback fairytale for Lively but instead of a red carpet victory lap, she found herself caught in a cinematic storm, and before she could say box-office gold, she was staring down a lawsuit determined to drain every ounce of superstar stamina from her. Yet, Lively stood firm, shielded by her own Avengers—Reynolds, and Taylor Swift. But now, word on the street suggests trouble in the dream team.

Reports claim Swift is steering clear of the legal whirlwind, leaving fans to wonder if this is the first crack in their sisterhood.

Taylor Swift and Blake Lively have always been the sisters before misters of showbiz everyone looks up to. Although concerns were abundant, whether the weight of this legal drama with Justin Baldoni would have the sisters resting their case once and for all, so far, so long, they have held their ground with the man of steel resolute. However, according to Entertainment Tonight citing insiders, Swift is allegedly taking a step back in this journey of the sisterhood of traveling pants, planning to remain “uninvolved.”

As per the industry sources, Swift and Lively are still as close as they used to be, with their bonds just as untarnished. However, the pop star has reportedly set sights on her life, focusing on her next big thing, and everything scheduled to come up from her coattails. As for now, Swift wants to maintain her distance with the legal matter after being mentioned in the filings, “especially since this isn’t related to her.”

Though this may not be the endgame for the BFFs, the new reports significantly paint a picture of confusion given the earlier ones negated any such strain in Taylor Swift and Blake Lively’s bond over the legal outings. 

Blake Lively regarded Taylor Swift and Ryan Reynolds as her ride-or-die whenever an opportunity arose. And since the headlines became all about her lawsuit drama with Justin Baldoni, Swift, and Reynolds have stuck by her side through and through. However, with the latest reports floating the idea of alleged forks on the roads of the Gossip Girl alum’s friendship with the pop star, it has become even more difficult to believe what is true and what is not. 

Barely a week ago, an insider negated to Page Six the reports about Swift trying to be distant with Lively, calling their “strained relationship” a false alarm. Though, indeed, the singer never addressed the legalities directly, she has time and again made it clear where her loyalty lies. However, with the new reports returning a fresh page of concern, it remains to be seen if their sisterhood is fated with a swift rescue.
