Selena Gomez's big day sparks controversy as Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's loyalty may cost Blake Lively a seat at the wedding
Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco's upcoming wedding in Montecito faces controversy (Getty Images) Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco's upcoming September 2025 wedding in Montecito, California, is shaping up to be one of the year's most exclusive celebrity events — but it may also be one of the most controversial. With a star-studded guest list that reportedly includes Taylor Swift , Travis Kelce , and Gomez's Only Murders in the Building co-stars, the couple is taking extreme measures to keep the two-day celebration private. Tensions rise as Blake Lively's invite remains uncertain According to insiders, the pair was furious after details of their wedding leaked, with one source telling the Daily Mail that they even considered moving the event. Instead, they've opted to double security and are debating a strict no-phone policy so guests can 'be present' without worrying about leaks or paparazzi shots. One of the most talked-about questions is whether Blake Lively will be invited. Reports suggest she's been edged off the list due to her alleged fallout with Swift, sparked by the ongoing legal battle between Lively and It Ends With Us co-star Justin Baldoni. Gossip columnist Rob Shuter revealed that Lively was already removed from Gomez's birthday party guest list earlier this year after Swift was nearly subpoenaed in the case. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Independence Day Sale is Live - Check The Sale Luxury Watches Buy Now Undo As the source put it, Gomez wanted 'love, light, and platform boots — not subpoenas and side-eyes' at her celebrations. RadarOnline insiders also claim Gomez quickly rallied around Swift during the dispute, organizing a girls' night out as a show of loyalty. 'She wanted to show her solidarity, but no doubt she was staking her claim,' the source noted. Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce cut ties with Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds The alleged rift escalated when Baldoni's team tried to subpoena Swift, accusing her of pressuring him to accept script rewrites. Swift's lawyers called it an 'unwarranted fishing expedition,' and the request was dropped. Sources close to Swift say she now views the friendship as more trouble than it was worth, with 'red flags' she wishes she'd noticed sooner. Reports also suggest Kelce has unfollowed Ryan Reynolds on Instagram, signaling a united front. As one insider put it, 'Taylor and Travis are disgusted with Blake and Ryan and how they tried to use Taylor in their fight against Justin Baldoni.'
