What's the story

Taylor Swift, the global pop sensation, is reportedly leaving out certain celebrities from her upcoming wedding to NFL star Travis Kelce. A source told Daily Mail that Swift has carefully curated her guest list. "She wants to be surrounded by those who can genuinely share the love and meaning of the day, especially the people who have played important roles in her life for years..." "Over time, some of her friendships have become strained for various reasons."

Friendship fallout

Karlie Kloss

One of the strained friendships is reportedly with supermodel Karlie Kloss. The two have been friends since 2013, but their bond seems to have weakened over the years. The rift became evident in 2018 when Kloss married Joshua Kushner, and Swift skipped the wedding citing "work commitments." This was despite Kloss's then-manager Scooter Braun being present at the event. Braun later purchased Swift's early album catalogue in June 2019- a move that reportedly left Swift feeling "grossed out."

Trust issues

This is how their friendship turned sour

Swift is said to have felt that the "trust in the friendship" with Kloss was "broken." A source told Daily Mail, "She came to believe that Karlie's intentions were not as genuine as she once thought, and that the friendship became more about proximity to Taylor's fame than a real bond."

Legal drama

Blake Lively

Another celebrity friend who might not make it to the wedding is actor Blake Lively. Swift reportedly felt "used" by Lively during her legal battle with Justin Baldoni, her It Ends With Us co-star and director. Unsealed court documents revealed that Lively had referred to Swift as one of her "dragons" in this case. An insider told Page Six last year that their friendship was beyond repair after this incident.

Royal RSVP

Will Prince William be attending Swift-Kelce's wedding?

Amid the speculation about Swift's guest list, Prince William recently appeared on Heart Breakfast with Jamie Theakston and Amanda Holden. When asked if he would be attending the rumored big wedding this summer, he smiled and said, "No comment. I'm hoping and I'm sure there might be an invitation around but we'll see." This has sparked further interest in who else might be invited to the star-studded event. Reports suggest July 3 has been finalized as the big day!
