Taylor Swift - English
Blake Lively appeared to extend an unexpected gesture of goodwill toward Taylor Swift after the launch of her new album, as speculation continues over the breakdown of their once-close friendship.
The actress quietly “liked” Swift‘s Instagram post celebrating the release of The Life of a Showgirl, signaling a possible thaw in their relationship after a tense period full of legal drama.
The interaction drew significant attention because it arrived amid rumors that one of Swift‘s new tracks, “Ruin the Friendship,” reflects tension between the two. Online speculation spread rapidly after fans noted parallels between the title and reports of a cooling relationship.
However, industry insiders have indicated the song’s lyrics, centered on a teenage romance, are unrelated to Lively or their reported fallout as there is no obvious sign of change on the end of the Grammy-winning arist.
Swift, 35, marked the album’s debut on Thursday evening with a series of glamorous, showgirl-inspired photos she posted online on October 2.
“I can’t tell you how proud I am to share this with you,” Swift wrote. “An album that just feels so right.
“A forever thank you goes out to my mentors and friends Max and Shellback for helping me paint this self portrait.
“If you thought the big show was wild, perhaps you should come and take a look behind the curtain… The Life of a Showgirl is out now.”
Why did Taylor Swift and Blake Lively fall out?
For years, Lively and Swift’s friendship was one of Hollywood’s most visible – a relationship marked by public outings, red-carpet appearances, and family get-togethers as the star singer often spent time with Lively’s husband, Ryan Reynolds, and their children.
She even named one of her Folklore characters after their daughter but their bond, however, has been overshadowed by recent legal tensions surrounding Lively’s It Ends With Us co-star Justin Baldoni.
The speculation over Swift and Lively’s estrangement intensified following developments in Baldoni’s sexual harassment case as court filings obtained by Page Six in September revealed that Swift had been drawn into the proceedings earlier this year.
That is said to have heightening tension between her and Lively as according to the documents, Swift was subpoenaed by Baldoni‘s legal team in May but the summons was later dropped.
The same filings alleged she had “agreed” to be deposed later in the case, though her representatives firmly disputed that claim. The judge presiding over the matter, Lewis J. Liman, granted an extension allowing for additional testimony to be scheduled if necessary.
Baldoni’s legal team suggested that Swift’s album launch prevented earlier scheduling, implying her work commitments had taken priority but her lawyers, however, rejected any suggestion that the singer had consented to testify.
“My client did not agree to a deposition,” Swift‘s attorneys said, in a formal letter to the court. “But if she is forced into a deposition, we advised (after first hearing about the deposition just three days ago) that her schedule would accommodate the time required during the week of October 20.”
The overlap between the legal case and the timing of Swift‘s album release fueled widespread conjecture that professional tensions had spilled into the pair’s personal relationship. Sources close to both women have described the atmosphere as “strained but not final.”
That suggests the two are maintaining a cautious distance as their legal teams navigate the ongoing dispute so for Lively, the decision to publicly acknowledge Swift’s album post, even with a single like, carried symbolic weight.
The actress’s action, though understated, was widely interpreted as a signal that she wishes to de-escalate public speculation and reaffirm respect for Swift’s career achievements, despite unresolved issues behind the scenes.
Observers note that both women have previously shown a preference for privacy in handling personal conflicts, and neither has directly commented on the reported rift – but as it stands, Swift‘s camp has remained focused on the album’s promotion.

Los dos bombazos del Madrid: Llull a 10 metros y Okeke ¡desde su campo!
Finalizaba el tercer cuarto y el Madrid tenía el partido más o menos bajo control. Pero un triple de Pelos a 57 segundos (65-54) dio paso a las dos canastas del partido. Y ambas del Madrid.La primera fue de Sergio Llull, que como siempre, desde tres, hace fácil lo que para otros es imposible. Buscaba la jugada pero le dieron un metro y lo aprovechó. El base lanzó un tiro desde unos 10 metros que voló por el Movistar Arena hasta caer limpiamente en una jugada muy celebrada por el público. Habría una mejor.Tras la canasta de Kuath, llegó la de Chuma Okeke... desde su campo. Recibió de Fernando, que sacó de fondo, dio apenas un bote y casi desde la ll´nea de tres de su propio campo, acertó Okeke, sobre la bocina y tras tocar en el tablero. Los […]

Un español que da clases en Vietnam cuenta cómo logra ahorrar más que en España
En España se vive relativamente cómodo, pero cuando los trabajadores viajan a otros países, uno de los problemas que más identifican es que aquí no hay una correlación entre los sueldos y el nivel de vida. Mientras que unos se mantienen congelados, el otro no para de subir. Eso significa que ahorrar con asiduidad cantidades importantes es prácticamente imposible.Cuando la mayoría se percata de esto, toma la decisión de irse a vivir a otros países para intentar conseguir más dinero. Normalmente, lo consiguen. Este es el caso de David Jimenez, un español que decidió mudarse a Vietnam cuando se enteró de que buscaban profesores de inglés. Han pasado los meses y está muy orgulloso de su decisión. Así cuenta lo que ha supuesto en el ámbito económico para él.Un profesor español, en el extranjero: “En Vietnam se puede vivir con […]
