Taylor Swift Appears to Be Ditching These Close Friends Amid Their Legal and Personal Battles
Share and Follow

All eyes are on Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce as they continue their loving, supportive relationship in 2025. However, fans wonder what’s going on in Swift’s personal life regarding her friendships. Rumors suggested she stepped back from Blake Lively amid Lively’s legal troubles with Justin Baldoni. Here’s who else Swift appeared to ditch in early 2025 as she and Kelce inch toward an engagement.

Taylor Swift has many notable friends in the music industry and Hollywood. However, fans noticed Swift might be putting significant distance between herself and those she once considered her best friends.

Sources told DailyMail.com that Swift has temporarily stepped out of the spotlight following Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni’s lawsuits. Swift was mentioned in texts between Lively and Baldoni. In the texts, Lively calls Swift one of her “dragons” and threatens Baldoni with her “gorgeous monsters” — Swift and Ryan Reynolds. While Swift wasn’t involved in It Ends With Us production, some sources claim she will receive a subpoena to share her insights under oath.

Lively aside, Swift no longer seems to speak to actor Jaime King. In 2015, King named Swift as her son’s godmother. The pop star and the actor were once spotted together all the time, but they’re reportedly no longer in contact.

Insiders have also noticed that Swift doesn’t appear to spend time with Selena Gomez or Karlie Kloss. Kloss married Josh Kushner, the brother of Ivanka Trump’s husband, Jared Kushner. The political affiliation may have turned Swift away from Kloss.

Finally, Swift hasn’t been spotted with Travis Kelce’s NFL teammate, Patrick Mahomes, or his wife, Brittany Mahomes. Swift established a connection with Mahomes through watching the Kansas City Chiefs play. A source told DailyMail.com that Swift and Kelce aren’t hanging out with the Mahomes “right now” because both couples have “other priorities.”

Taylor Swift still has ‘love’ for Jaime King even though they no longer talk, a source says

Taylor Swift and Jaime King’s friendship is under the microscope in 2015. King lost custody of her kids to her ex-husband, Kyle Newman, after failing to complete a six-month drug and alcohol program. The exes have two kids: James, 11, and Leo, 9. King has visitation rights but can only visit her children three times per week, according to Page Six.

Swift and King met at a Golden Globes party in 2014 and became fast friends, with King naming Swift as Leo’s godmother in 2015. However, Swift and King have drifted apart in recent years. A source close to King told The U.S. Sun they have “no regular contact,” though Swift still takes her godmother duties “very seriously.”

“Taylor and Jaime are not close anymore and don’t talk, but there is still love,” the source alleged. “She has always taken her godmother role and duties very seriously and is the most caring and thoughtful person Jaime could’ve asked to be there for Leo. But their relationship is a lot different now than it was back when Jaime asked Taylor to be his godmother. There is no regular contact.”

The pop queen likely wants nothing to do with Blake Lively’s lawsuit

Taylor Swift and Blake Lively’s friendship is also under fire in 2025. The friendship started in 2015, with Swift spending ample time with Lively and Ryan Reynolds. Unfortunately, Lively’s 2025 lawsuit against Justin Baldoni might’ve thrown a wrench into her relationship with Swift. Several reports suggest Swift wants nothing to do with the lawsuits and wants distance from Lively.

However, another source told In Touch Weekly that Swift doesn’t want the current drama to “destroy” her longstanding friendship. The friends will likely come back together once the lawsuits have been resolved.

“Taylor is close with Blake, and her family and is even godmother to Blake’s kids,” the source noted. “Justin’s lawsuit may be a nightmare, but they would never let something like this destroy them.”
