Taylor Swift and: Travis KelceThe wedding celebrations began at Madison Square Garden in New York City, on Thursday, but one person who was conspicuously absent from the guest list was Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds.The actress was spotted with her husband, spending the long holiday weekend with their family, miles away from the wedding celebrations, further fueling speculation about the breakup of her friendship with the pop superstar.TMZ obtained photos of the Hollywood couple who attended a horse show in Lake Placid, New York, on Thursday, where they were seen cheering on their daughter Betty, as she competed in an event.The family outing happened just hours after A-list celebrity guests from Selena Gomez to Gigi Hadid, Adam Sandler, Bradley Cooper and many others were spotted arriving at the MSG venue for Swift and Kelce’s reported rehearsal dinner with close friends and family, ahead of the July 3 celebration.Lively’s absence from the reported guest list has drawn attention in recent months following reports that she was not invited to the wedding following a dispute involving Taylor in her legal drama with ‘It Ends With Us’ star Justin Baldoni.The latest spotting seems to confirm months of rumors that the longtime friends have split after court papers revealed how the actress indirectly involved Swift in her feud. The court filings were made public even after revealed text messages in which Lively compared Swift to one of her “dragons” while discussing creative disagreements with Baldoni.TMZ previously reported that sources close to the situation claimed Swift was frustrated after being drawn into the high-profile legal battle. The singer was subpoenaed in connection with the case earlier this year before the subpoena was withdrawn.Lively and Swift have shared a close friendship over the years, with the actress even making the singer godmother to her children. Taylor also called his songs from Lively’s children – Betty and Inez.Meanwhile, the wedding festivities officially began in New York City with a closed-door celebration at MSG. Many stars were seen arriving at the venue earlier this evening for a cocktail party. While the women wear gowns, the men wear suits, ready to party late into the night.Friday’s celebrations reportedly include a wedding, where the couple will exchange vows in an intimate ceremony. This will be followed by a grand wedding celebration that will begin at 3 pm and continue until dawn on July 4.
