Taylor Swift And Blake Lively Reportedly Aren't Speaking
You might remember that, back in May of this year, reports emerged that Taylor and Blake's famous friendship — the former literally named a song after one of Blake's children, for Christ's sake — had "halted" after Taylor had become temporarily involved, seemingly against her will, in Blake's legal battle against Justin.
"Taylor wants no part in this drama," a source told People at the time, while another source added that the pair "taking some space" from each other for the time being — but, also, that they're "not no longer friends," which is a fairly important distinction to make.
Of course, you're also probably aware that Taylor's upcoming album The Life of a Showgirl features a song called "Ruin the Friendship," which people are already speculating is about a presumed falling-out with Blake.
And while there's no official confirmation that the song is concerning itself with that topic, a new report from People suggests that Blake and Taylor's friendship is still not going very well at the moment.
"Taylor and Blake aren't speaking," the source tells the publication. Yikes! These reports usually come with a bit more to them, but that's pretty much it for the moment, which is...rough.
We've reached out to Blake and Taylor's reps for comment, and we'll let you know if we hear back.

Culture Digest: The best things to do, hear, see or watch in Europe this week
Last week, Taylor Swift announced her upcoming album 'The Life of a Showgirl', because she's nothing if not prolific! The news has (of course) consumed online discourse, with fans excited - but also a little sceptical. As Euronews Culture writer (and dedicated Swifty) Sarah Miansoni writes: "I had barely had any time to recover from Swift's last album, the gargantuan 'The Tortured Poets Department', and from the equally massive Eras Tour, and it was already time to dive into a new era? What if I wasn't ready for it?" We've still got a while to wait for its release on 3 October, and in the meantime - before more companies get in on the Swift marketing action and August slips away without an official Song of the Summer - there's plenty else to look forward to. From a fascinating exhibition exploring patient's dreams and nightmares at England's oldest psychiatric hospital, to Julia Ducournau's highly-anticipated new body horror 'Alpha', and a second season of James Gunn's Peacemaker - here are this week's highlights. Exhibitions Between Sleeping and Waking: Hospital Dreams and Visions Where: Bethlem Museum of the Mind (London, UK) When: Until 22 November 2025 England's oldest psychiatric hospital is exhibiting never-before-displayed creations by its patients. First opened in 1403, Bethlem Royal Hospital has become a site of enduring fascination, famously inspiring the 1946 horror film Bedlam starring Boris Karloff. Its dark history has become a lens through which people continue to examine societal perceptions of mental health - and the blurred lines between reality and illusions. It's this idea of a psychological limbo state that dominates 'Sleeping and Waking', with an immersive installation by artist Kate McDonnell at its heart; capturing visions of a disconnected mind. Haunting and captivating, visitors will find themselves transported to other worlds that feel both far removed, and resonant. Anne Geddes: Until Now Where: Art 28, Neues Kunstmuseum Tübingen (Tübingen, Germany) When: Until 21 September With her sweet and whimsical images of babies dressed as sunflowers and bumblebees, Australian photographer Anne Geddes' work became a hallmark of the '90s and early '00s. Used in cards, books and calendars, they're instantly recognisable to those that grew up with them. It's about time, then, that she had her first retrospective. Titled after her book of the same name, Until Now showcases 150 of Geddes images at the New Art Museum in Tübingen, including the identical triplets slumbering in a man's hands - still one of her most iconic. Saved Treasures of Gaza Where: The Institut du Monde Arabe (Paris, France) When: Until 2 November 2025 Documenting over 5,000 years of Gaza's cultural and archeological history, 'Saved Treasures of Gaza' is a powerful reminder of what has been and what's at stake for a country currently facing war and famine. From the small marble statue of a goddess, to the astonishing Abu Baraqeh mosaic, most of the 130 masterpieces on show have been kept in storage at the Geneva Museum of Art and History until now, unable to be returned to Gaza due to the unsafe conditions. Safely preserved, they now act as vessels for Palestine's richly storied identity - a way to connect people to the past, and reinforce hope for the future. Bonus highlight: To celebrate the 250th birthday of the celebrated 'Pride and Prejudice' author, Jane Austen's House is hosting 'Austenmania!' until 4 January 2026 (Hampshire, UK). Related Euronews Culture's Film of the Week: 'Together' - The ultimate date movie? Movies Alpha Where: French cinemas When: 20 August After winning the Palme d'or in 2021 for her body horror triumph Titane, anticipation has been - excuse the pun - revving up for Julia Ducournau's third feature. Having premiered at this year's Cannes Film Festival, Alpha is set amidst the '80s AIDS epidemic, following a young girl (Alia Bhatt) who is feared to have contracted the disease after getting a tattoo. Infused with the gnawing paranoia and anxiety that's become a trademark of Ducournau's works, it's proven divisive with critics so far - but is guaranteed to get under your skin. Stay tuned for our full review on Friday. Bonus highlight: Ari Aster's neo-Western satire Eddington arrives in UK cinemas on the 22 August, with a staggered release across other European countries to follow. Read our review here. And if you haven't caught up on two of this summer's biggest horror hits, Weapons and Together are still in cinemas. Don't miss out. TV series Peacemaker Season 2 Where: Sky Max and NOW When: 22 August Is this a James Gunn summer? Fresh off his box office success with Superman, the filmmaker and co-CEO of DC Studios has gifted us a second series of his hit show Peacemaker. Part of Gunn's wider vision for rebooting the DC Universe, it's a continuation of the story of Christopher Smith (John Cena), a special-trained operative who will do anything - and kill anyone - in his quest for peace. We can expect cameos from other DC characters, including Superman and Hawkgirl, as the new era of DC ramps up its expansion. Bonus highlight: The Twisted Tale of Amanda Knox, a miniseries based on the story of Knox's wrongful conviction in 2007, streams from 20 August (Disney+). Music Wolf Alice: The Clearing When: 22 August Four long years since their last album, 'Blue Weekend', British alt-rock band Wolf Alice are returning with a highly-anticipated fourth studio release. From the psychedelic shimmers of 'White Horses' to the soothing melodrama of 'The Sofa', its singles so far suggest we're in for a collection that's soulful and nostalgic, textured with 70s influences like George Harrison, while still grounded in contemporary reflections. Bonus highlight: Canadian folk musician Kathleen Edwards returns with her sixth studio album, 'Billionaire', on 22 August.

Michelle Yeoh says that despite constant work travel, she and her husband have found ways to make it work
Michelle Yeoh says she didn't have to choose between her career and personal life, thanks to her husband, former Ferrari CEO Jean Todt. In an interview with People published on Sunday, the "Everything Everywhere All at Once" actor spoke about her husband's support for her work and ambitions. "I am so blessed because he's so supportive of what I do. I love my work. This is my passion. He never turns around and says you spend a lot of time away from me, which I have sometimes, but he's very understanding," Yeoh told People. "On the day of our anniversary, I actually was flying." Yeoh met Todt in Shanghai in June 2004. After being engaged for 6,992 days, or around 19 years, the couple married in Geneva in July 2023. Reflecting on their journey to the altar, Yeoh shared the philosophy that shaped their relationship. "What we say is, 'Every day should be a celebration.' Why do we wait for a special day?" she said. She added that Todt shows his romantic side in the way he commemorates their time as a couple. "He doesn't count by years. He tells me we've been together 7,000-[something] days. And if I really ask, he'll give me hours and minutes too," Yeoh said. During a January 2024 appearance on " The Tonight Show," Yeoh called Todt one of the "most patient" people in the world. "And I think that's what we all deserve, it's to have someone who loves us for who we are and what we do. And we have a busy lifestyle, but he's always been so supportive," she told host Jimmy Fallon. Yeoh was previously married to Dickson Poon, a Hong Kong businessman, from 1988 to 1991. During a January 2024 appearance on the "Goop" podcast, Yeoh said she stepped away from acting during her first marriage in order to focus on the relationship. "You know, with our work, we're always traveling. If you're filming outside of the country, it's like, you know, maybe we'll not see each other for a couple of months. And when both parties work, it's hard to find that balance," Yeoh told host Gwyneth Paltrow. However, her inability to have kids was one of the main reasons for her divorce from Poon. Yeoh isn't the only Hollywood celebrity who says having a supportive partner helped keep their relationship strong. In February 2024, Blake Lively said she and Ryan Reynolds agreed "not to work at the same time" when they started dating, so that they could always prioritize their personal lives. In March 2024, Susan Downey said she and her husband, Robert Downey Jr., don't go more than two weeks without seeing each other and their family. A representative for Yeoh did not immediately respond to a request for comment sent by Business Insider outside regular hours.

Leonardo DiCaprio and Girlfriend Vittoria Ceretti Kiss on PDA-Filled Yacht Outing in Spain
The Aug. 15 outing near the Spanish island of Formentera gave a rare glimpse into the private couple's relationship NEED TO KNOW Leonardo DiCaprio and Vittoria Ceretti shared a kiss during a PDA-filled yacht outing on Friday, Aug. 15 The outing near the Spanish island of Formentera gave a rare glimpse into the private couple's relationship DiCaprio and Ceretti were first romantically linked in 2023 Leonardo DiCaprio and Vittoria Ceretti are soaking up the sun in Spain. The actor, 50, and the model, 27, were spotted on a PDA-filled yacht outing near the island of Formentera on Friday, Aug. 15, per photos obtained by the Daily Mail. The couple shared a kiss as they spent time lounging together on the boat and swimming in the Mediterranean Sea, the pictures reveal, giving a rare glimpse into the pair's romance. The couple — for whom traveling and yachting have proven to be favorite pastimes — was spotted spending time together and mingling with a larger group on the boat, the photos show. At one point, they shared a smooch as they sat in the shade, taking a break from the Spanish sun. Ceretti also appeared to place her hand on DiCaprio's backside as they walked up stairs together, one snap shows. Ceretti wore an animal-print string bikini, while DiCaprio sported a pair of black swim trunks. At different points, the pair both wore goggles as they appeared to take a dip in the Mediterranean. Earlier this summer, the pair — who have been romantically linked since August 2023 — were spotted on the way to Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez's wedding welcome party, which they later attended. On June 26, the actor and model were seen leaving the Gritti Palace Hotel in Venice, Italy, en route to the event, which preceded Bezos and Sánchez's nuptials. DiCaprio, a longtime friend of the newlyweds, wore a dark suit and black baseball cap, while Ceretti opted for a long, neutral dress with textured fabric and stitching down the sides. She had her hair styled in a chic updo, and carried a nude clutch bag. Prior to the rare sighting, a source revealed to PEOPLE that DiCaprio and Ceretti were expected to attend the star-studded wedding. Months earlier, Ceretti opened up about her relationship with DiCaprio in an interview, marking the first time she's done so since the pair were romantically linked. In a cover story for Vogue France (translated from French), the model discussed her dating life with the star, who was referred to simply as a "very, very famous actor" in the feature for the magazine's April 2025 issue. Ceretti revealed that the pair first met "in Milan,' but said, 'I prefer not to go into details.' Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from celebrity news to compelling human-interest stories. She also shared her stance on the potential risk of being recognized for her relationship with DiCaprio rather than for her own career. "As soon as you're in a relationship with someone who has a larger following than you, you become 'girlfriend of' — or 'boyfriend of,' for that matter. And that can be extremely annoying,' she told Vogue France. 'Suddenly, people are talking about you as so-and-so's girlfriend who was so-and-so's ex. So, it's not nice to think that you can't love whoever you want, because of the labels people need to stick on you.' Ceretti also said that dating someone whose star is as large as DiCaprio's is 'something you learn.' 'If what you're experiencing is real, if you know you love each other, then there's no reason to be alarmed,' she told the French outlet. 'Because love protects and gives confidence."
