Blake Lively was recently celebrated by Taylor Swift with a lavish birthday party at Swift’s $17 million Rhode Island estate. The event, marking Lively’s 37th birthday, saw a gathering of Hollywood’s elite, including Lively’s husband Ryan Reynolds and other close friends.

Photos obtained by DailyMail.com capture the relaxed and festive atmosphere as the stars prepared to celebrate. Ryan Reynolds was seen interacting with children at the pool, while Blake Lively, dressed in a multi-colored robe, was photographed on a balcony with her kids.

Taylor Swift hosted a star-studded guest list, including Gigi Hadid, who came with her partner Bradley Cooper and his daughter. Cooper was spotted enjoying the pool area in casual attire, mingling with other guests such as NFL stars Patrick Mahomes and his wife Brittany. Kylie Kelce also attended, sporting a baby blue bikini and white dungarees as she joined her daughter at the pool.

Blake Lively, who had been relatively low-key amid the controversy surrounding her film “It Ends With Us,” made a public appearance at the party. The actress had previously faced criticism for promoting her alcohol brand in connection with the film’s themes of domestic abuse and for her perceived dismissiveness in interviews. Additionally, reports of a feud with director Justin Baldoni had also surfaced, leading to social media drama.

Taylor Swift, having just returned from the European leg of her Eras Tour, used the opportunity to spend time with her Kansas City Chiefs boyfriend, Travis Kelce. The couple, along with other guests, enjoyed the summer at Swift’s iconic mansion, known for its past star-studded Independence Day parties. Although Swift had to miss this year’s celebrations due to her tour, she made a grand return to her Rhode Island home.

Fans have gathered outside Swift’s property, hoping for a glimpse of the pop star and her famous friends, despite being asked to disperse by security. Parents have been seen trying to keep their children from sneaking photos, while armed guards maintain a perimeter around the estate.

The party also included appearances by retired NFL player Jason Kelce, who is enjoying his first offseason post-retirement and preparing for a new role with Amazon Prime starting next month.
