No.&#8217; Like he did with me.<\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;But that must not [have] tested well in the focus group.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nEarlier in the alleged exchange, Blake asked Taylor if everything was &#8220;ok&#8221; because she &#8220;felt like a bad friend lately&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>\nTaylor seemingly told the actress: &#8220;I feel distanced from you even more than we are geographically.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nShe allegedly added that Blake&#8217;s recent messages &#8220;felt like I was reading a mass corporate email sent to 200 employees&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>\nShe added: &#8220;You don&#8217;t need to apologize. Just come back please.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nWeeks later, it&#8217;s alleged that Taylor sent a link to an article about Justin being dropped from his agency.<\/p>\n<p>\nShe reportedly wrote: &#8220;You won. You did it. And you &#8230; helped so many people who won&#8217;t have to go through this again.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nBryan Freedman &#8211; who acted as a lawyer for Justin and his Wayfarer Studios production company &#8211; previously described the claims as &#8220;completely false, outrageous and intentionally salacious with an intent to publicly hurt and rehash a narrative in the media&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>\nIn a separate statement provided to The Hollywood Reporter, Freedman said: &#8220;It is shameful that Ms Lively and her representatives would make such serious and categorically false accusations.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nHe added that Blake&#8217;s legal action was &#8220;yet another desperate attempt to \u2018fix\u2019 her negative reputation which was garnered from her own remarks and actions during the campaign for the film; interviews and press activities that were observed publicly, in real time and unedited, which allowed for the internet to generate their own views and opinions&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p><!-- Pagination --><\/p>\n<p><!-- playbuzz --><br \/>\n<!-- end playbuzz--><\/p>\n<p><!-- \n\n<div data-cn-project=\"femalefirst\">\n    \n<\/div>\n\n --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n<!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<p>    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.femalefirst.co.uk\/celebrity\/taylor-swift-blake-lively-texts-revealed-justin-baldoni-case-1436395.html?f=rss\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>21 January 2026 Taylor Swift allegedly told Blake Lively that Justin Baldoni &#8220;knows something is coming&#8221;.
