00:00Taylor Swift's inner circle has changed over the years and according to sources that was reflected
00:04in one notable detail at her wedding to Travis Kelce. Despite being the godmother to five
00:09children, none of them were part of the couple's July 2nd and July 3rd wedding celebrations
00:14at Madison Square Garden. Instead, sources told Page Six that the only children in the ceremony
00:19were Jason Kelce's daughters who served as flower girls. Swift is godmother to actress
00:25Jamie King's 10-year-old son, Leo Newman, as well as all four of Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds'
00:30children, James, Inez, Betty, and Olin. She was once especially close with the Reynolds family,
00:37even using the names James, Inez, and Betty in songs from her 2020 album, Folklore. King asked
00:42Swift to become Leo's godmother back in 2015, shortly after the two became friends. The actress
00:48had attended Swift's famous 4th of July party in Rhode Island the year before, alongside Emma Stone
00:53and Lena Dunham, who both attended Swift's wedding. But one music insider told Page Six
00:59that Swift and King simply haven't shared a long history together. According to the source, Taylor
01:04tends to become close with people quickly and she and King happen to be friends during King's pregnancy.
01:09The insider also noted that the two haven't been seen together in years. Their friendship
01:13reportedly faded as King dealt with a series of personal struggles. A source previously told Page Six
01:19that the relationship suffered as the actress faced challenges, including losing custody of her two
01:24sons after failing to complete a court ordered drug and alcohol rehab program. Meanwhile, Blake Lively
01:30and Ryan Reynolds were also absent from Swift's wedding. The couple reportedly spent the day of
01:34the rehearsal dinner at daughter Betty's horse show in Lake Placid. Their friendship with Swift has also
01:39cooled in recent years following Lively's legal battle with It Ends With Us director and co-star,
01:44Justin Baldoni. Court filings revealed private communications involving Swift, including messages
01:50in which the singer acknowledged there had been a little bit of a shift in her friendship with Lively.
01:54Sources also claimed that singer Todrick Hall was left off the guest list after allegedly talking too
02:00openly about Swift's personal life. The insider said Swift often becomes close with people quickly
02:04before naturally drifting apart. Adding that former friend Martha Hunt was another familiar face missing
02:10from the celebration, despite attending the heiress tour in 2023. Still, the source emphasized that
02:16Swift remains deeply loyal to the people she trusts. They pointed to her long-time friendship with Lena
02:21Dunham, who attended both nights of the wedding festivities and even gave a speech at the rehearsal
02:26dinner. According to the insider, Swift tends to judge people based on how they treat her personally
02:30rather than what's written about them, which is why some friendships have endured while others have
02:35quietly faded over time.
