At 13:28 · chapter starts 12:40
The most striking revelation of the wedding coverage: Blake Lively was absent from a 1,000-person guest list that included Graham Norton and Greg James. Marina Hyde reveals that Swift is not merely friends with Lively but is godmother to all three of her daughters — making the snub extraordinarily cold. [1] — Marina Hyde "Taylor Swift is godmother to all three of Blake Lively's daughters, yet Lively was conspicuously absent from the 1,000-person wedding guest…" 12:40 The likely cause, Marina suggests, is the Justin Baldoni–Blake Lively lawsuit, in which Taylor Swift's private supportive messages were exposed during discovery, creating what Marina terms 'brand contamination.' Richard draws a deadpan domestic comparison — 'we've all had this issue with our weddings, when you go, oh God, after that lawsuit, it's very difficult' — while simultaneously noting that someone must have been 1,001st on the list. The segment closes on Marina's observation that the Blake Lively angle provides the 'mega celebrity beef' that, like her songs, ensures her wedding can be decoded and discussed indefinitely.
Taylor Swift is godmother to all three of Blake Lively's daughters, yet Lively was conspicuously absent from the 1,000-person wedding guest list. The snub appears linked to the fallout from the Blake Lively–Justin Baldoni lawsuit, in which Swift's private supportive messages were exposed — raising the question of whether brand contamination is now grounds for cutting your godchildren's mother.
Taylor Swift is godmother to all three of Blake Lively's daughters but did not invite Lively or the children to her wedding.
