A reliable source has informed People magazine that Taylor Swift and Blake Lively are making strides in mending their frayed friendship. The duo is "actively endeavoring to restore harmonious relations," yet the insider concedes that their bond "has irrevocably shifted from its former glory."

The source further elaborates that Swift and Lively, who once shared an inseparable bond, "now find themselves less intertwined and less frequently in each other's company than in the bygone days." This shift in their dynamic unfolds amidst Blake Lively's ongoing legal entanglement with her 'It Ends With Us' co-star and director, Justin Baldoni.

Reports suggest that the singer-songwriter was unexpectedly ensnared in the controversy when Baldoni alleged her presence at a meeting held in Lively's luxurious New York City penthouse. Nonetheless, despite this tumultuous backdrop, Swift and Lively appear committed to navigating their way forward.

"Taylor is diligently attempting to rekindle her trust in Blake, albeit acknowledging that the healing process will be gradual and require patience," divulges the insider. Meanwhile, the court trial for Lively's lawsuit against Baldoni is penciled in for March 2026, marking the date when both parties will face each other in a legal showdown.
