Blake Lively’s deep sense of ‘hurt’ has been revealed after she and her husband were shut out of former confidante Taylor Swift’s wedding list.
The two women were once thick as thieves, so close that Lively named Swift godmother to all three of the daughters she shares with her husband Ryan Reynolds.
But what once seemed an indissoluble bond was torpedoed after Swift was embarrassingly dragged into Lively’s legal battle with Justin Baldoni.
An insider revealed, ‘Taylor’s in a different place now and she just wants to be around people she trusts and who bring her peace,’ according to Page Six.
‘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.’
This Friday, Swift and her groom Travis Kelce welcomed a cavalcade of celebrities to their nuptials at Madison Square Garden, which were officiated by Adam Sandler and featured performances by Stevie Nicks, Paul McCartney and the bride herself.
Now, a source has exclusively informed the Daily Mail of Lively’s fury over her rejection, which has set a match to any chance she and Swift might mend fences in the future.
Lively is ‘sad and a little bit p***ed. No, a lot p***ed,’ said the insider. ‘That friendship was over before but if there was hope, it’s gone. They’ll never be friends again.’
The Gossip Girl star ‘wanted to go,’ the source noted.
‘It feels bad to be excluded like that. She had sort of hoped that despite everything, their history was enough that they’d be included, but that’s not the way it went.’
Gigi Hadid and Bradley Cooper, as well as Selena Gomez, Lena Dunham, Hugh Grant, Steven Spielberg, Jay-Z, Beyonce, Tom Brady, Jessica Chastain, Ed Sheeran, The Chainsmokers, Chris Rock, Jessica Alba, Danny Ramirez, Paul Mescal, Gracie Abrams and several of Kelce’s Kansas City Chiefs teammates like Patrick Mahomes were on hand for the blowout extravaganza.
