Blake Lively and Taylor Swift's once-close bond appears to be on shaky ground.
Amid Lively's legal battle with Justin Baldoni, the actress's friendship with the pop sensation is weakening day by day after Taylor faced a subpoena by Baldoni's legal team, via People.
"Their friendship has halted," an insider close to Swift told the outlet. "Taylor wants no part in this drama."
A second source tattled that the longtime pals, Lively and the August singer, are "taking some space," however they have not ended their friendship.
Previously in April, a tipster claimed that Swift was "really hurt" after being pulled in the Lively's It Ends With Us legal battle.
But the pals were trying to "put it all behind them."
Following the recent subpoena which was filed on May 8, it has "fractured" the "fragile peace" that Lively and Swift were maintaining between them as per a tipster.
It is pertinent to mention that along with Swift's friendship with Lively, the Lover hitmaker is also godmother to the actress' four kids whom she shares with her husband, Ryan Reynolds.
