There is a developing twist in the ongoing legal battle between Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni, as revealed by Daily Mail. Court documents suggest that Taylor Swift may be called to provide sworn testimony following the release of her new album, 'The Life of a Showgirl'. The pop superstar first became entangled in the case after Baldoni referenced her in a countersuit, and although a subpoena was withdrawn, reports indicate that her involvement in the controversy continues to deepen.

Court filings further revealed that Justin Baldoni’s team opposed a motion setting a deadline for evidence collection, citing a request to delay Taylor Swift’s deposition until the week of October 20-25 due to professional commitments, as per the report. Her text messages with Blake Lively could play a pivotal role in the proceedings. Baldoni had previously sought communications between the two, though subpoenas were withdrawn after Swift’s legal team intervened. This legal entanglement has left fans wondering whether Lively and Swift remain friends, adding another layer of intrigue to the unfolding saga.
