As all eyes remain on New York City\u2019s Madison Square Garden, where Taylor Swift<\/a> and Travis Kelce<\/a> are reportedly tying the knot this weekend, Blake Lively<\/a> was spotted well away from the action.<\/p>\n

In photos published by TMZ<\/a> on Thursday, July 2, Lively, 38 and her husband, Ryan Reynolds, 49, were snapped in Lake Placid, New York.<\/p>\n

The images show Lively and Reynolds in upstate New York, nearly 300 miles away from MSG, as they cheered on their daughter Betty, 6, at a horse show at a local farm. (In addition to Betty, Lively and Reynolds also share daughters<\/a> James, 11, and Inez, 9, and son Olin, 3.)<\/p>\n

In stark contrast, other celebs, including Selena Gomez and Lena Dunham, have been spotted<\/a> in New York City as Swift and Kelce\u2019s rehearsal dinner reportedly kicked off.<\/p>\n

Taylor Swift Did Not Invite Blake Lively to Travis Kelce Wedding: Where They Stand After Falling Out<\/a><\/p>\n

Last month, multiple sources confirmed to Us Weekly that Lively did not receive an invitation<\/a> to Swift and Kelce\u2019s wedding despite the Gossip Girl alum once sharing a close friendship with the \u201cOpalite\u201d singer.<\/p>\n

\u201cBlake understands why she wouldn\u2019t be invited and that it would be a media frenzy,\u201d an insider exclusively told Us in June. \u201cShe also understands that she and Taylor don\u2019t have the same level of friendship they once had. She isn\u2019t upset about not being invited, but of course, she would love to be there to support her and Travis.\u201d<\/p>\n

Swift and Lively\u2019s bond was strained after the Grammy winner was dragged into Lively\u2019s legal battle<\/a> between the actress and her It Ends With Us director and costar Justin Baldoni.<\/p>\n

During the high-profile legal drama, personal texts between Swift and Lively were made public. Swift\u2019s name also came up in court documents, when Baldoni claimed he was ambushed during a meeting at Lively and Reynolds\u2019 NYC penthouse with Swift in attendance. In subsequent text messages, Lively referred to herself as Khaleesi from Game of Thrones and called Swift one of her \u201cdragons.\u201d<\/p>\n

Lively and Baldoni, 42, reached a settlement out of court last month after the contentious 18-month legal fight.<\/p>\n

Prior to their strained relationship Lively and Swift shared a tight relationship, with the \u201cFate of Ophelia\u201d singer being given the honor of being godmother to three of Lively\u2019s four children.<\/p>\n

After Swift began dating Kelce in summer 2023, the couple spent quality time with Lively and Reynolds, including a double date at The Corner Store in NYC in October 2024.<\/p>\n

Swift and Kelce are reportedly set to tie the knot at MSG over the July 4 holiday weekend, with celebrations said to stretch over multiple days.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"As all eyes remain on New York City\u2019s Madison Square Garden, where Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":285740,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[8860,10494,222,9,24,11,10,13734,1473,15839,817],"class_list":["post-285739","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-new-york","tag-blake-lively","tag-lake-placid","tag-madison-square-garden","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-city","tag-new-york-headlines","tag-new-york-news","tag-ryan-reynolds","tag-taylor-swift","tag-travis-kelce","tag-upstate-new-york"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/285739","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=285739"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/285739\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/285740"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=285739"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=285739"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=285739"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
