'Blake's desperately hoping…': As Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce enjoy date nights, Blake Lively begs for forgiveness
Once hailed as a cornerstone of Taylor Swift's tight-knit A-list girl squad, Blake Lively is now allegedly scrambling to repair her fractured relationship with the global pop icon.
Following nearly a year of silence between the two friends, reports now suggest that Lively is 'desperate' for reconciliation—but not with the rest of the crew, including Selena Gomez and Gigi Hadid. And while Taylor has seemingly moved on—with Travis Kelce by her side and a fresh circle forming around her—Lively is reportedly refusing to accept the friendship is over.
Blake Lively 'desperate' to win back Taylor Swift amid friend group fallout
The once-glamorous bond between Taylor Swift and Blake Lively came under fire when Lively's name was indirectly linked to a lawsuit involving actor-director Justin Baldoni.
According to court documents, Baldoni claimed that Swift and his co-star pressured him into revising the It Ends With Us script. Although Swift denied involvement, the mere association reportedly prompted the pop star to quietly distance herself from Lively, causing a cold drift that fans noticed at public events and on social media.

Now, insiders claim Lively is working overtime to make amends—with no intention of extending olive branches to the other women in the group.
'Blake's desperately hoping that Taylor will forgive her, but of course, there's no guarantee that she will be let back into her inner circle,' a source told a foreign magazine. 'Yes, the lines of communication are open – but when Taylor cuts someone off, it's usually for life. Still, Blake isn't ready to give up.
'
The Gossip Girl alum is reportedly enlisting mutual friends—including Hugh Jackman and Salma Hayek—to help her win back Swift's trust.
'Blake is devastated that things have gotten to this place, and she's refusing to accept that their friendship is over. She loves Taylor and misses her terribly and she'll do anything to fix this. She's been texting and calling Taylor, pleading for forgiveness,' the insider added.
Travis Kelce reportedly caught in the middle
Interestingly, sources also claim that Travis Kelce has become an unexpected figure in the drama. As Swift's relationship with the NFL star grows more serious, some insiders speculate that Kelce is quietly acting as an emotional buffer, encouraging Swift to remain guarded.
'Travis has Taylor's back completely,' one source hinted. 'He knows who's really been there for her, and who hasn't.'
As for Selena Gomez, Gigi Hadid, and Cara Delevingne, the rift may be beyond repair. 'They acted like they were her friends, but the moment Taylor was upset, they showed their true colours,' the source concluded. 'It's something Blake will never forget.'

Watch: Ben Stokes dismisses Yashasvi Jaiswal; his fiery reaction goes viral
Yashasvi Jaiswal in action for India (Image via AP/Scott Heppell) England skipper Ben Stokes brought Edgbaston to life on Day 1 of the 2nd Test with a fiery send-off after dismissing India's in-form opener Yashasvi Jaiswal. This followed an earlier on-field exchange between the two. Jaiswal, fresh off a century in the first Test at Headingley, looked well on course for a second ton in the series. The 23-year-old raced to his 16th fifty-plus score in just his 21st Test, bringing up his half-century off 58 balls with 10 boundaries. However, tensions simmered earlier in the day when Stokes and Jaiswal shared a sharp exchange. The moment came after Jaiswal took a quick single off Stokes' bowling. The England captain appeared to have a few words for the young batter, to which Jaiswal coolly replied, 'You don't want to hear from me, come on.' The rivalry added extra spice to the contest and it was Stokes who eventually had the last word. Stokes found Jaiswal's outside edge with a delivery that nipped away, which wicketkeeper-batter Jamie Smith comfortably took, sending Jaiswal back for a well-compiled 87 off 107 balls. Ben Stokes vs India (Image via X) Stokes' celebration was as explosive as the dismissal with a roar, a long sprint, and a jubilant response that immediately went viral on social media. The passion on display highlighted the significance of the breakthrough, with Jaiswal having looked unshakeable after the early losses of KL Rahul and Karun Nair. Poll What did you think of Stokes' celebration after dismissing Jaiswal? It was fitting for the moment It was over the top The wicket didn't just break a dangerous stand but was also a personal moment of triumph for the England captain, who had clearly marked the young Indian as a key target.
