Taylor Swift<\/a>\u2019s close friendship with Blake Lively<\/a> and her family is reportedly over. According to a July 9 report from gossip columnist Rob Shuter, Swift and Lively\u2019s falling out has also impacted the \u201cBad Blood\u201d singer\u2019s relationship with Lively\u2019s husband, Ryan Reynolds, and their four children\u2014James, Inez, Betty, and Olin\u2014whom Swift\u2019s godmother to.<\/p>\n \u201cWhen Taylor\u2019s friendship with Blake and Ryan ended, her role as an active godmother naturally faded too,\u201d an insider told Naughty But Nice<\/em><\/a>. \u201cThere wasn\u2019t a falling out with the children. She simply isn\u2019t part of their everyday lives anymore.\u201d<\/p>\n <\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n <\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Swift all but confirmed the friendship breakup at her July 3 wedding to Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce<\/a>, where Lively, Reynolds, and their kids were notably absent. \u201cThat told the whole story,\u201d another source explained. \u201cYears ago they would have been front and center. Today, they\u2019re no longer part of Taylor\u2019s inner circle.\u201d<\/p>\n Related: Blake Lively \u2018Forced\u2019 to \u2018Accept\u2019 Taylor Swift Friendship Is Over Amid Report She\u2019s \u2018P\u2014d Off\u2019 by Wedding Snub\u2014\u2018This Is Going to Haunt Her Forever\u2019<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n Despite the alleged rift with Lively and Reynolds, Swift reportedly has no ill will toward the children. \u201cTaylor still has love for those kids,\u201d the source says. \u201cBut relationships with children often depend on relationships with their parents. When the friendship ended, the connection naturally faded. It\u2019s sad, but that\u2019s the reality.\u201d<\/p>\n Swift\u2019s distance from Lively and Reynolds\u2019 kids comes after she also snubbed another godchild, Leo Thames<\/a>\u2014the son of actress Jaime King\u2014from her guest list. When fans noticed Leo wasn\u2019t at the high-profile event, speculation arose that Swift and King may have also had a falling out.<\/p>\n However, King\u2019s publicist, Jane Owen, quickly dismissed the rumors and told Page Six<\/em><\/a>, \u201cLeo Thames is still too young for a large adult wedding celebration, but he and his mother were able to joyfully celebrate Taylor and Kelce\u2019s marriage in his own very special, age-appropriate way during his summer break.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cThe reason Jaime chose Taylor as Leo Thames\u2019s 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,\u201d Owen added.<\/p>\n Swift and King became friends after meeting at a 2014 Golden Globes party. The following year, King welcomed Leo and chose Swift as his godmother. Despite this special bond, Swift and King are no longer in touch. \u201cTaylor and Jaime are not close anymore and don\u2019t talk but there is still love,\u201d a source told The U.S. Sun<\/em><\/a> in 2025.<\/p>\n However, Swift is still close with Leo, sending him gifts for his birthday and assuring him that she would \u201cbe there in a heartbeat\u201d whenever he needed her.<\/p>\n \u201cShe has always taken her godmother role and duties very seriously and is the most caring and thoughtful person Jaime could\u2019ve asked to be there for Leo,\u201d the source said. \u201cBut their relationship is a lot different now than it was back when Jaime asked Taylor to be his godmother. There is no regular contact.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n![\"Image](\"https:\/\/stylecaster.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/travis-kelce-taylor-swift-2.png?w=300&h=168&crop=1\")
