Taylor Swift is already making the most of her Eras Tour break.
According to photos shared by Page Six and The Daily Mail, Swift and boyfriend Travis Kelce hosted a family-friendly pool party with the couple’s inner-circle on August 24. “[Travis] has a long weekend break,” a source told Page Six. “[The Chiefs] were off yesterday, today and tomorrow, but he won’t be staying long. [He and Patrick Mahomes] have to be back tomorrow night for a Monday morning meeting with the team.”
Jason and Kylie Kelce, Patrick and Brittany Mahomes, and Bradley Cooper were all spotted at Swift’s famous Rhode Island estate, while Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds were even photographed kissing outside of the Holiday House.
Despite Swift’s extremely close friendship with Lively, some fans were surprised by the Gossip Girl star’s presence amid the ongoing It Ends With Us controversy. Earlier this month, fans took issue with the way the film’s cast appeared to ignore director and co-star Justin Baldoni at the film’s premiere.
As speculation over Baldoni and Lively’s alleged power struggle gained momentum, Lively was also accused of downplaying the movie’s portrayal of domestic abuse in interviews and using the moment to promote her new haircare line. While the actor posted about domestic violence statistics and resources on her Instagram story on August 14, she appears to have taken a step back from the public eye following the backlash.
Many fans have pointed out that Swift did not post about It Ends With Us after the movie’s debut despite supporting Reynolds’ film Deadpool & Wolverine in late July. Swifties even began speculating that the pop star was “distancing herself” from Lively amid the drama, especially after she posted about close friend Zoë Kravitz’s directorial debut, Blink Twice, on August 23.
Of course, that doesn’t appear to be the case. As one TikTok user said of Taylor Swift’s latest pool party: “Can you imagine being a fly on the wall of the Holiday House?”
