A source told TMZ that the pair entered the restaurant hand in hand, with Swift later walking ahead of Kelce as they settled in for their meal. The Kansas City Chiefs star is currently renting a lavish $20 million mansion in Boca Raton while training during the NFL offseason.
The low-key date comes amid reports that Swift has been pulling back from her friendship with Lively, 37, following the “Gossip Girl” star’s ongoing legal battle with Justin Baldoni. Baldoni’s legal team had originally subpoenaed Swift, claiming that Lively weaponized her friendship with the singer to assert control over the film adaptation of It Ends With Us.

An insider told the Daily Mail that Swift is feeling regretful about the friendship. “Right now, if Taylor had one wish, it would be that she never met Blake,” the source alleged. “When Taylor looks back at their friendship, she realizes it wasn’t worth all the stress Blake put her through.”
Kelce has reportedly been steadfast in his support for Swift, even unfollowing Lively’s husband, Ryan Reynolds, on Instagram as tensions escalated.
Earlier this week, Baldoni’s legal team withdrew the subpoena for Swift, saying they had received the information they needed. A source cryptically told Page Six, “When information is voluntarily received, there is no need for subpoenas.”
Meanwhile, Lively’s rep expressed relief over the dropped subpoena, telling Deadline, “We are pleased that Justin Baldoni and the Wayfarer Parties have withdrawn their harassing subpoenas to Taylor Swift and her law firm.”
Lively and Baldoni are expected to face off in court in March 2026.
