Right now, the legal battle between Justin Baldoni and Blake Lively is blowing up all over social media. It’s become a full-blown public spectacle. But what really shocked fans was the unexpected mention of Taylor Swift’s name in the middle of all this drama.

To recap: Blake Lively accused Baldoni of sexual harassment back in December. Then in January, Baldoni fired back with a countersuit, where he allegedly brought up Swift’s name as part of his defense.

Fast forward to this past Friday—Taylor Swift has now been subpoenaed, which means she’s been legally asked to testify as a witness in this messy court case. According to a report by the Daily Mail, Swift was devastated by this. Insiders claim she was totally caught off guard by how far the situation has escalated and that she’s “very upset” about being dragged into it.

The article also claimed that Taylor feels completely betrayed and used by Blake Lively—someone she’s been close friends with for years. In Baldoni’s lawsuit, there are supposedly text messages and emails where Lively even referred to Swift as one of her “dragons”—a term that seems to suggest Taylor was someone she relied on or used as a form of support or influence.

There’s also a claim that Taylor was present at a meeting about It Ends With Us at Blake and Ryan Reynolds’ house in New York. Baldoni’s team is implying that Swift may have had some level of involvement in the film’s production decisions.

But according to sources close to Taylor, that isn’t true. They said she just happened to be there when the meeting was already happening, and that she didn’t have any say in the matter. One of the rumors was that Taylor personally approved the casting of Isabela Ferrer as young Lily Bloom, the film’s main character. The insider shut that down, calling the claim totally false. They said the subpoena is trying to dig into situations that never even happened.

Right now, this legal feud is still unfolding, and the drama continues to trend online as fans and followers try to piece together what’s really going on.
