Note: As we discussed last week, we’ve taken a break from writing about the Blake Lively-Justin Baldoni case for the most part, and that’s because the comment sections devolve into chaos very quickly. There’s bot activity by both sides, and there are too many personal attacks on other commenters and on this site. That’s why we’re preemptively keeping the comments closed on this post.

Almost one year ago exactly, Justin Baldoni publicly released some of the communications/texts between himself and Blake Lively. That’s when we saw the now-infamous “Khaleesii/dragon” text, where Blake tried to get her way on something to go with the film by calling Taylor Swift and Ryan Reynolds her “dragons.” There was widespread speculation and gossip about Taylor realizing at that moment that Blake had been leveraging her name for a while to get what she wanted. Well, in recent weeks, even more texts have been released, texts between Taylor and Blake, texts which are now part of this massive lawsuit. What’s a little bit funny is that despite Taylor’s protests about how she had nothing to do with anything involving It Ends With Us, she and Blake were texting regularly about everything to do with the film, and Taylor clearly attended at least a few of the production meetings too. Taylor called Baldoni a “bitch” in text messages too. Well, now People Magazine has an exclusive about Taylor’s fury at all of these texts coming out.

Taylor Swift wants to “stay away from the drama” after her private text messages with Blake Lively were made public, a source exclusively tells PEOPLE.

Correspondence between the pop superstar, 36, and Lively, 38, were partially unsealed on Tuesday, Jan. 20, as part of the actress’s ongoing legal dispute with Justin Baldoni, 41, and Wayfarer Studios.

“Taylor feels like her privacy was impacted. Anyone would be uncomfortable if their private texts were suddenly made public,” explains the source.

The singer-songwriter was among several celebrities whose messages appeared in unsealed court documents related to the case. Matt Damon and his wife Luciana also corresponded with Lively and her husband Ryan Reynolds about Baldoni and It Ends With Us.

Last December, Lively sued Baldoni, her It Ends With Us costar and director, his production company Wayfarer Studios, and some of Baldoni’s associates, alleging sexual harassment and a retaliatory smear campagin after she spoke up. Baldoni countersued Lively and Reynolds for defamation and extortion, but the suit was dismissed.

Baldoni’s lawyers are seeking to have the case tossed ahead of a trial, which is scheduled to begin in May. They included Lively and Reynolds’s messages with their famous friends in a trove of court filings ahead of a summary judgment hearing on Thursday, Jan. 22.

Portions of the released messages show Lively and Swift discussing the Gossip Girl alum’s costar and director, Baldoni and the situation surrounding It Ends With Us.

Lively’s attorneys said the released texts are missing necessary context, pointing to Lively’s deposition in which the actress said she “sent Taylor the script on her way to my apartment because Justin was still there, and I asked her to read them. I told her she didn’t have to, I didn’t want her to feel pressured to do that, but I hoped that she would.”

The singer had allegedly been on her way to visit her friend when Baldoni was present in Lively’s home. Afterward, Lively wrote to Swift she was “so epically heroic today” and that she “recapped every moment” to Reynolds.

Lively also allegedly referred to Baldoni as a “clown” and a “doofus” in messages to Swift, who also allegedly referred to Baldoni as a “bitch.”

The source tells PEOPLE Swift “was just being a friend to Blake, and it’s turned into something bigger than she ever expected. She never thought private messages would become public.”

Now, “Taylor is just trying to stay away from the drama,” continues the source.

A rep for Swift did not immediately return PEOPLE’s request for comment.

The newly-released texts between Taylor and Blake actually confirmed my long-held beliefs about both women, but I’ve seen their fans jump in to defend them and so be it. The nicest thing I’ll say is that some of those communications are open to interpretation, and I honestly think that for much of the time in question, Taylor was simply trying to be an overly supportive friend, even though she didn’t have the full story. At the very least… it’s odd to make this about Taylor’s privacy, especially when the relevant texts involve discussions about the script, discussions about how Blake is trying to hijack the film, discussions of Blake’s plans to maneuver this or that. It’s not like Taylor was forced to produce intimate texts between herself and Travis, you know? When all of the lawsuit(s) happened, did Taylor honestly believe that none of those texts and emails would come out?
