Is Taylor Swift seeking solace in an old friend as she steps back from Brittany Mahomes and Blake Lively amid legal drama?

Taylor Swift, the billionaire pop star, has been having a rough time ever since she got involved in the legal drama between Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni. While the trouble in her life started from there, it soon involved her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, after she got booed at the Super Bowl. Currently, there are reports of Taylor Swift also “distancing” herself from Travis Kelce’s teammate, Patrick Mahomes’ wife. With everything going wrong in Taylor Swift’s life, it seems like she has found comfort in an old friend.


After Taylor Swift got booed at the Super Bowl 2025, she disappeared from the public eye and even stopped updating her fans on her social media. However, she recently posted on her Instagram after a hiatus of 100 days; the post was for none other than, one of her oldest and closest friends, Selena Gomez.
Taylor Swift took to her Instagram story to promote Selena Gomez’s new song with her fiance Benny Blanco. The billionaire pop star added the song, “I Said I Love You First”, on her Instagram story with a caption that read as, “I LOVE THIS ALBUM SO MUCH OH MY GODDDDDDDDDDDD”.

This has reminded fans of the bond that Taylor Swift and Selena Gomez has had for years.
A fan took to X and wrote, “The two most powerful women in the world still being besties after all these years 🥰🥰🥰 so wholesome”, while another fan wrote, “Their friendship is my fave”.

Both Selena Gomez and her fiance, Benny Blanco, have spoken highly of Taylor Swift in the last few days. Benny Blanco has even admitted that he has now become a Swiftie and is always listening to Taylor Swift’s songs in his car.

Taylor Swift’s Instagram story for Selena Gomez and her fiance, Benny Blanco, comes just after days it was reported that the pop star is distancing herself from her NFL WAG friend, Brittany Mahomes.
As per Daily Mail, a source reported, “[Swift and Kelce] aren't hanging out with Patrick and Brittany right now. The two couples aren't avoiding each other because of any tension, they just have other priorities right now.”
It seems like losing one of her best friends, Blake Lively due to the legal trouble with Justin Baldoni, has been tough on Taylor Swift. It could also be the reason why she has now decided to step back from her friendship with Brittany Mahomes and is focused on her bond with Selena Gomez.
However, neither Taylor Swift nor her team has spoken about her relationship with Blake Lively.
