Why Taylor Swift Feels ‘Exposed’ After Her Texts With Blake Lively Revealed

Swift is reportedly frustrated following the revelation of private text messages between her and longtime friend Blake Lively amid the ongoing legal battle involving director Justin Baldoni.

Text messages from Taylor Swift and Blake Lively about the director

Lively filed a lawsuit in late 2024, alleging that Baldoni sexually harassed her while they worked together on the set of “It Ends With Us,” and also accused him of engaging in a campaign of retaliation against her.

“Can you do me a huge favor. I need help with him,” Lively asked Swift in a text. “Can you tell him that you’re excited about the movie. That you’ve read the book, but what’s freaking you out is the [script] pages that I sent you. What a magnetic scene it is. Or whatever descriptions work for you [with]”.
The “Bad Blood” hitmaker then responded that she “would do anything” for Lively. In another text, the couple seemed in good spirits after Swift apparently pressured Baldoni at Lively’s New York apartment.

What Blake Lively thinks about exposed text messages

Lively’s lawyer Sigrid McCawley revealed how the “A Simple Favor” actress feels about her friend being “dragged” into her legal battle with Baldoni.
