Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds were snapped far away from Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s star-studded rehearsal dinner.
Lively, 38, and Reynolds, 49, supported their daughter Betty as she competed in a horse show in Lake Placid, New York, Thursday in pictures obtained by TMZ. According to the outlet, Betty, 6, placed second in the competition.
The couple dressed casually on the farm where the horse show took place, with Lively wearing a halter top and jean shorts with her hair tied up in a messy bun.
As for Reynolds, he wore a plain white T-shirt, khaki pants and a tan hat.
A source told Page Six last month that Lively — who was previously one of Swift’s closest friends — was not invited to the pop star’s nuptials after their fallout stemming from the actress’ long legal battle with Justin Baldoni.
“There hasn’t been an olive branch when it comes to their friendship,” the insider said. “And Taylor hasn’t extended a wedding invitation to Blake.”
A source previously told Page Six that Swift, 36, “needs space” from the actress after her name was dragged into the lawsuits between Lively and her “It Ends With Us” co-star and director, which ended in a surprise settlement in May.

The singer is “taking a break from their friendship right now. Taylor is really hurt by this whole situation and feels like a pawn,” the insider said at the time.
“Taylor wants nothing to do with this whole ordeal,” they added. “She has always been a loyal friend to Blake and doesn’t appreciate being thrown into this at all.”
Lively has indeed been noticeably absent from Swift’s wedding festivities. She was spotted grocery shopping solo in New York last month while Swift celebrated her bachelorette weekend with her closest girlfriends at her Rhode Island mansion.
Meanwhile, Swift’s A-list celeb pals — including Selena Gomez, Gigi Hadid, Erin Andrews and more — were snapped arriving to her and Kelce’s rehearsal dinner at Madison Square Garden in New York City Thursday. The dinner ran from 6 p.m. to 10:30 p.m., Page Six exclusively confirmed.
Over 1,000 guests are expected to attend Swift and Kelce’s wedding Friday, with a ceremony start time of 5:30 p.m. ET. The reception kicks off at 6:30 p.m. and is expected to end at 2:00 a.m. Saturday morning.
Page Six exclusively reported that Swift and Kelce already said “I do” in private ahead of their lavish MSG celebration. We’re told the couple have already exchanged vows in front of a small group of loved ones.
“They are already married,” our source insisted.
