While the heart of New York prepares to receive a thousand celebrities on the occasion of the wedding of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce at Madison Square Garden, one of the most frequently mentioned questions has been answered: Blake Lively and her husband Ryan Reynolds will not attend the celebration.

According to images and information released by the TMZ portal, the couple has decided to escape the hustle and bustle of the city to a calmer and more familiar environment, which suggests that the breakup of their friendship with the Grammy winner is definitive.

The destination in question was a local farm in Lake Placid, New York, to support their daughter Betty in a horse riding competition that took place on Thursday, July 2.

“The family outing comes while Taylor and Travis are surrounded by close family and their current close friends, about four and a half hours away in New York City,” the publication noted.

The postcards that gained relevance on social networks show Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds smiling at the sporting event in which their daughter won second place, as reported by the American portal.

In addition to this sighting, a few days ago it was reported that Blake Lively was not invited to Taylor and Travis' wedding celebrations, which added fuel to the fire of speculation about the end of their friendship.

And in view of the celebrity marriage, the multi-award-winning singer has resumed her closeness with some personalities with whom she had stopped being seen in recent years, including the model Karlie Kloss.

The end of a friendship

The rift between Lively and Swift dates back to the actress' intense legal and media battle with actor and director Justin Baldoni. The conflict escalated when Reynolds' wife brought up the songwriter's name and referred to her as "one of her dragons who would protect her."

The media points out that this speech made Swift uncomfortable and exposed her to a controversy from which she decided to stay away from Lively.

“Taylor became frustrated after becoming involved in Blake's legal battle with Justin Baldoni, feeling like she had been unnecessarily dragged into the dispute,” a source close to TMZ told TMZ.

Although the “Lover” interpreter was summoned to testify in the case, it was later reported that the request had been withdrawn. With this, speculation about a fracture in his friendship with Lively began to gain strength.
