The bad blood might continue.
Taylor Swift has allegedly agreed to be deposed in Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni’s legal battle, according to court docs obtained by Page Six on Friday.
The “A Simple Favor” star, 38, first sued Baldoni in December 2024, claiming he sexually harassed her while filming “It Ends With Us.” Lively also accused him of spearheading a smear campaign against her.
Baldoni, 41, meanwhile, denied the allegations and countersued Lively, her husband Ryan Reynolds, their publicist Leslie Sloane and Sloane’s p.r. firm Vision PR Inc. for $400 million in January.
The “Jane the Virgin” alum accused his “It Ends With Us” co-star of defamation and extortion.
Baldoni then accused Lively of calling Reynolds, 48, and Swift, 35, her “dragons” and referring to herself as Khaleesi from “Game of Thrones” in an alleged text conversation.
Now, in a turn of events, Swift will allegedly be deposed next month.
“Wayfarer Parties requested an agreement solely to take the deposition of Taylor Swift during the week of October 20-25 due to Ms. Swift’s preexisting professional obligations,” Baldoni’s filing stated, noting Swift “agreed to appear” but is “unable to do so before October 20.”
Swift’s new album, “The Life of a Showgirl,” comes out on Oct. 3.
Lively’s legal team, however, is pushing back on the deposition request in another filing obtained by Page Six on Friday.
Her lawyers claim that Baldoni’s attorneys had plenty of time to schedule her deposition before the discovery deadline and question whether the superstar even agreed to their request.
“In this latest effort, the Wayfarer Defendants assert—though, notably, without evidence—that Ms. Swift has supposedly ‘agreed’ to sit for a deposition sometime between October 20-25 (some three weeks after the close of fact discovery in this matter),” the court docs read.
“Yet, even if one were to take the Wayfarer Defendants’ representation at face value, they have not come close to establishing good cause for their requested relief.”
The Post reached out to reps for Swift, Baldoni and Lively.
Swift was dragged into the legal battle when Baldoni claimed in his lawsuit that the singer was present for his pivotal meeting with Lively at the NYC penthouse she shares with Reynolds about allegedly rewriting the infamous rooftop scene from the film.
Baldoni’s lawyer, Bryan Freedman, then issued a letter to Judge Lewis J. Liman, claiming he was told by an anonymous source that Lively’s attorney, Michael Gottlieb, allegedly threatened to release Swift’s text messages if she didn’t publicly support the actress.
Gottlieb denied the allegations — and the judge granted Lively’s motion to strike the letter, calling Freedman’s filing “improper” and “irrelevant” in the order obtained by The Post.
The “Gossip Girl” vet has denied all the allegations against her.
In May, Swift was subpoenaed as a witness. The “Bad Blood” singer is godmother to Lively’s daughters with Reynolds.
“Their friendship has halted,” an insider told People at the time. “Taylor wants no part in this drama.”
However, Baldoni’s legal team dropped the subpoena that same month after a representative for Swift denied she had any involvement.
“Taylor Swift never set foot on the set of this movie, she was not involved in any casting or creative decisions, she did not score the film, she never saw an edit or made any notes on the film, she did not even see ‘It Ends With Us’ until weeks after its public release, and was traveling around the globe during 2023 and 2024 headlining the biggest tour in history,” the rep told The Post in response to the original subpoena.
A month later, reports surfaced that the Grammy winner was allegedly “done” with Lively.
Swift was reportedly “ignoring” all calls, texts and emails from her former bestie.
“Even though Taylor has totally cut ties with her, Blake hasn’t with Taylor,” a source told Daily Mail at the time.
Lively’s attempts to contact Swift have reportedly gone unanswered.
“She’s been reaching out to her with texts, voicemails and even emails begging to mend what they once had. Blake isn’t giving up on trying to get her friendship with Taylor back on track,” the insider added. “Taylor hasn’t responded to any of Blake’s pleas. She’s ignored all her groveling excuses. The missives explain there must be some misunderstanding on Taylor’s part and that she would never do anything to harm their ten years of closeness and personal secrets.”
The source explained that Swift is icing Lively out because she feels “betrayed” and “exploited.”
“Taylor obviously still means so much to Blake, but Taylor’s totally done with her and as of right now, no requests will mend their bond as far as she’s concerned.”
Lively and Baldoni’s trial is set to kick off in March 2026.
