NBA star Travis Kelce’s recent decision to unfollow Ryan Reynolds on Instagram has sparked speculation about underlying tensions involving Taylor Swift and Blake Lively.
Although the exact motive remains unclear, it may be a calculated decision to distance himself from Lively’s ongoing legal dispute with her It Ends With Us co-star, Justin Baldoni.

In the lawsuit, a text from Lively referred to Reynolds and Swift as her “dragons” protecting her in the industry, which reportedly made Swift feel “used” and led to her distancing herself from the situation.
The social media activity follows a source’s revelation that the lawsuit naming Swift “really hurt” her. However, the longtime friends have reportedly been able to “recover” their relationship.
Although Lively has since issued a heartfelt apology and reconciled with Swift, Kelce’s unfollowing of Reynolds appears to be a strategic move to distance himself from the controversy.
Despite the social media change, sources affirm that Swift and Kelce remain deeply committed to their relationship and recently enjoyed a romantic getaway together.
No Follows on Insta
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce have never followed each other on Instagram – a conscious decision to keep their relationship private and free from public scrutiny.
Despite Kelce’s 6.4 million followers and Swift’s massive 282 million followers (while following no one), their social media silence toward each other speaks more to intentional privacy than any kind of disconnect.
Swift also follows no one on X and only a few brand pages on Facebook. She’s never followed Kelce, and he’s never followed her – yet their relationship continues to thrive through more personal, meaningful expressions of affection offline.
So, while Kelce’s decision to unfollow Ryan Reynolds has raised eyebrows, it’s not a reflection of any strain between him and Swift.
