A source told Page Six last month that Lively \u2014 who was previously one of Swift\u2019s closest friends<\/a> \u2014 was not invited to the pop star\u2019s nuptials<\/a> after their fallout<\/a> stemming from the actress\u2019 long legal battle with Justin Baldoni.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere hasn\u2019t been an olive branch when it comes to their friendship,\u201d the insider said. \u201cAnd Taylor hasn\u2019t extended a wedding invitation to Blake.\u201d<\/p>\n

A source previously told Page Six that Swift, 36, \u201cneeds space\u201d from the actress after her name was dragged into\u00a0the lawsuits\u00a0<\/a>between Lively and her \u201cIt Ends With Us\u201d co-star and director, which ended in a surprise settlement<\/a> in May.<\/p>\n

The singer is\u00a0\u201ctaking a break from their friendship<\/a>\u00a0right now. Taylor is really hurt by this whole situation and feels like a pawn,\u201d the insider said at the time.<\/p>\n

\u201cTaylor wants nothing to do with this whole ordeal,\u201d they added. \u201cShe\u00a0has always been a loyal friend to Blake<\/a>\u00a0and doesn\u2019t appreciate being thrown into this at all.\u201d<\/p>\n

Lively has indeed been noticeably absent from Swift\u2019s wedding festivities. She was spotted grocery shopping solo<\/a> in New York last month while Swift celebrated her bachelorette weekend<\/a> with her closest girlfriends at her Rhode Island mansion.<\/p>\n
