An anti-love triangle.
Gigi Hadid is reportedly distancing herself from Blake Lively amid the actress’ seemingly fractured friendship with Taylor Swift.
“Gigi feels terrible that her close friend is being pulled into the legal drama,” a source told People Thursday after Swift was subpoenaed as a witness in Lively and Justin Baldoni’s ongoing legal feud.
Another source added, “Gigi is closer to Taylor and has definitely taken her side in this whole drama. Gigi doesn’t want to get involved in this whole ordeal, but she is closer to Taylor and has distanced herself from Blake — although she still considers her a friend.”
A third source told the outlet that Lively’s relationship with Swift, 35, has “halted,” as the pop superstar “wants no part in this drama.”
While a fourth source acknowledged that the two are “taking some space” apart, they insisted that they are “not no longer friends.”
As Page Six previously reported, Swift felt “used” after being implicated in Lively’s legal battle; in an alleged text message to Baldoni — her “It Ends With Us” co-star and director — Lively, 37, threateningly referred to the singer as one of her “dragons.”
A source told People that the subpoena, which was served last week, “fractured” the “fragile peace” between Lively and Swift, who is godmother to the the four kids the “Gossip Girl” star shares with husband Ryan Reynolds. (Notably, Swift’s boyfriend, Travis Kelce, has recently unfollowed Reynolds, 48, on Instagram.)
Lively also allegedly asked the Grammy winner to “delete their text messages” and “release a statement of support,” according to Baldoni’s attorney, who alleged that the requests intimated that “if Ms. Swift refused to do so, private text messages of a personal nature in Ms. Lively’s possession would be released.”
Lively’s lawyers vehemently denied the claims with a judge later ruling Baldoni’s team’s claims are inadmissible in court.
Lively and Hadid’s friendship status was first questioned after the former skipped the model’s star-studded 30th birthday party late last month.
Page Six previously confirmed that Swift was in attendance, even though there were no photos of her appearance.
In December 2024, Lively filed a lawsuit against Baldoni, 41, alleging that he sexually harassed her on the set of their movie and then orchestrated a smear campaign against her, all of which he denied.
The following month, Baldoni filed a $400 million defamation and extortion lawsuit against Lively, Reynolds and her publicist, Leslie Sloane.
Their trial is set to begin in March 2026.
Reps for Hadid, Lively and Swift did not immediately respond to Page Six’s requests for comment.
