May 13, 2025 — Taylor Swift, known for her kindness and loyalty to her inner circle, has been left devastated by recent events that have rocked her personal life.
Sources close to the “Cruel Summer” singer reveal that Swift is feeling ‘heartbroken’ after what she perceives as a betrayal from someone very close to her.
The Eras Tour hitmaker, who has consistently been a supportive friend to those in her inner circle, is reportedly feeling ‘exploited’ in the ongoing legal drama surrounding Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni. The 14-time Grammy winner was subpoenaed as a witness in the legal feud on Friday, May 9, a situation that has left her ‘upset’ and feeling taken advantage of by a close friend.
According to Daily Mail, Swift feels betrayed by Lively, whom she had considered a best friend (BFF), and believes her name is being used for personal gain in the legal dispute. What makes the situation even more complicated is the fact that the lawyer who informed Swift about the court order was actually representing It Ends With Us director Justin Baldoni, not the actress Blake Lively, intensifying her frustration.
Insiders close to Taylor Swift state that the “Shake It Off” singer has been aware of the way Blake Lively has been using her name for some time now. However, this subpoena has taken the situation to a whole new level, leaving Swift feeling deeply hurt. The two have been close friends for years, with Taylor even acting as godmother to all three of Lively’s daughters.
Despite their long-standing friendship, Swift reportedly sees Blake Lively as the primary person responsible for her being pulled into the legal saga, which has caused emotional distress. As the situation continues to unfold, Swift remains heartbroken and is grappling with the complexities of personal and legal betrayal.
For now, Taylor Swift is dealing with the aftermath of this shocking development and is trying to find a way to move forward from what feels like a deeply personal betrayal.
