Last year, Blake Lively joined Taylor Swift at the 2024 Super Bowl to watch Travis Kelce and the Kansas City Chiefs take the title, joined by Swift’s other friends, Ice Spice and Ashley Avignone. This year, Lively will not be at Super Bowl LIV, a source told Entertainment Tonight.
“Blake is not planning to join Taylor at the Super Bowl this year. They had a blast together last year, but this year Taylor is bringing others along,” the insider said, without offering any names from the potential new guest list.
The Chiefs are in New Orleans this weekend to play the Philadelphia Eagles and Swift has already arrived. The Eras Tour star was seen joining Kelce and his teammate Patrick Mahomes and Patrick’s wife, Brittany Mahomes, on Friday, February 7. They headed into the French restaurant Lilette for a double date dinner.
According to an interview with Kelce’s older brother, Jason, shared on February 4 by People, the whole family plans to be there.
“Yeah, I think everybody’s coming in,” he shared. “I mean, I don’t want to speak for everybody, but I think obviously, our whole family. I believe, obviously Trav and Taylor, and his family and his friends. I mean, Trav always travels like, full.”
Swift was last seen with Lively in October 2024, again enjoying a double date with Kelce and Lively’s husband, Ryan Reynolds, at The Corner Store in New York. A few weeks later, on October 25, Lively and Reynolds were in New Orleans for Swift’s first Eras Tour show in the Louisiana city. They were seen dancing at Caesars Superdome by a fan who shared a clip online.
In late January 2025, a source told Us Weekly that Lively and Swift remain “close friends” and there has “been no rift” between them, according to People, despite rumors that they’ve been distant since Lively and her It Ends With Us co-star Justin Baldoni’s lawsuits against each other hit the news.
