Blake Lively spent a girls’ night out with her sisters, Robin and Lori, amidst speculation regarding a fallout with her friend Taylor Swift.
On Saturday, the star of “Another Simple Favor” shared a group selfie on her Instagram Story, capturing the evening’s festivities at the International Photography Center in New York City from the night before.
Robin (37), Lori (58), and Blake (53) were all smiles as they posed for a photo against a vibrant backdrop.
The former “Gossip Girl” actress attended to support her friends, photographers Anna Palma and Guy Alock, at the opening of their exhibit.
The outing follows reports suggesting a growing distance in Blake’s friendship with Swift, attributed to an ongoing legal dispute involving actor Justin Bardoni.
An insider reportedly told people that “their friendship has ceased,” adding that Taylor is keen to avoid being dragged into any drama.
While they were said to have “taken some space,” it was emphasized that “they are not no longer friends.”
Swift has distanced herself from Lively after Bardoni’s lawyer was called as a witness in a sexual harassment case on May 8.
Earlier, a representative for Swift clarified that she had no significant involvement with Blake’s film “It Ends With Us,” which Blake claimed to have faced harassment during its production.
“Taylor never visited the set, nor was she involved in casting or creative decisions. In fact, she only saw the final edits weeks after its release,” the spokesperson remarked.
Legal proceedings for Blake against Bardoni are set to commence in March 2026, although Swift’s team is contesting the summons.
Blake’s representatives also criticized Bardoni, calling him a “bully” for essentially pulling Swift into the conflict following the subpoena.
“The defendants have repeatedly threatened, bullied, and attacked women’s rights and reputations,” a spokesperson for Blake stated. “Their behavior is shocking, especially from those who present themselves as allies to women.”
Last December, Blake launched a lawsuit against Bardoni for alleged sexual harassment on the set of a 2024 film. Bardoni has denied these claims and countered with a $400 million lawsuit in January, targeting Blake, her husband Ryan Reynolds, and her spokesperson for defamation and other allegations.
