The upcoming wedding of Taylor Swift is bound to be the talk of the town for many reasons, with her star-studded guest list being one of them.

The singer and her NFL star fiancé, Travis Kelce, will reportedly tie the knot in early July in New York City, surrounded by famous faces, like pop star Selena Gomez.

However, one particular person is said to have been snubbed of an invite to Taylor Swift’s wedding after their friendship fell apart due to “trust” issues.

Insiders Reveal Why Karlie Kloss Will Not Be At Taylor Swift’s Nuptials

Karlie Kloss is said to have been snubbed from Swift’s upcoming wedding to Kelce. The model and singer were once thick as thieves, making music video appearances and attending events together.

By 2017, things seemed to have cooled between them, and in 2019, it became apparent that the former friends were no longer close as Swift missed Kloss’ wedding to Joshua Kushner.

Now, sources claim Swift intentionally ended their friendship over a broken trust due to the people the model associated with.

“Taylor has meticulously gone through her wedding guest list because the people she wants at her wedding are the people she hopes will remain in her life forever,” the source told the Daily Mail, noting that the pop star “wants to be surrounded by those who can genuinely share the love and meaning of the day, especially the people who have played important roles in her life for years.”

“Over time, some of her friendships have become strained for various reasons,” they continued. “Obviously, Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds will not be attending, and neither will Karlie Kloss. When it comes to Karlie, Taylor ultimately felt that the trust in the friendship had been broken.”

The Pop Star Allegedly Felt Karlie Kloss’ Intentions Were Not ‘Genuine’

Speaking more on the matter, the source claimed Swift realized over time that Kloss did not have very genuine intentions, and that the model allegedly only cared about her proximity to the singer’s fame.

“She came to believe that Karlie’s intentions were not as genuine as she once thought, and that the friendship became more about proximity to Taylor’s fame than a real bond,” the source said.

“Because of that, Taylor chose to distance herself, feeling that maintaining a friendship with someone she believed was using her no longer served her in any positive way,” they continued. “Could that ever change? Probably not.”

The insider further noted that Swift tends to give people a chance to show their real selves, and for her, everything Kloss has done in the past years has “only reinforced the decision to keep her distance rather than attempt to reconcile.”

Taylor Swift Had A Major Issue With Karlie Kloss’ Association With Scooter Braun

During Kloss’ 2019 wedding to Kushner, the couple’s second after an intimate ceremony in 2018, one major name that stood out on her guest list was her then-manager, Scooter Braun.

Swift was not in attendance, reportedly due to “work commitments.” However, there was probably more to it than met the eye, as around that period, Braun had purchased Swift’s original label, Big Machine Label Group, for $330 million.

Regarding this, the Daily Mail source noted that Kloss’ proximity to Braun became “a major issue for Taylor,” adding that in the singer’s eyes, “anyone closely aligned with Scooter is someone she simply cannot fully trust.”

“She feels very strongly about who Scooter is as a person based on her own experiences with him, and because of that, she views the loyalty others show toward him as extremely revealing,” the source continued. “To Taylor, if someone is willing to stand by Scooter at any point despite everything that has happened, it says a lot about their character and where their loyalties truly lie.”

Karlie Kloss And Taylor Swift Are ‘Still Acquaintances’

Another source who spoke with the media outlet slightly disagreed with the notion that Swift and Kloss had an issue due to her proximity to Braun.

Instead, they claimed that the model’s “political affiliation with the Kushner name did play a role in their friendship fallout.”

Kloss’ husband’s brother, Jared Kushner, is married to Ivanka Trump, the daughter of US President Donald Trump. Jared also currently serves as Special Peace Envoy for the Trump administration, and Swift is known to have had a public feud with Trump, especially ahead of the 2024 presidential elections.

While it’s unclear how much their friendship has deteriorated over politics, the insider stated that Swift and Kloss are “still acquaintances,” with the supermodel making an appearance at her Eras Tour concert in Inglewood, California, back in 2023.

Kloss also liked the singer’s post about her engagement to Kelce in August 2025, hinting that all is not lost between the former pals.

About Taylor Swift And Travis Kelce’s Upcoming Wedding

While Kloss might not make an appearance at Swift and Kelce’s upcoming wedding, her guest list will feature famous faces, whom the singer is said to be calling personally to invite them to her nuptials.

According to TMZ, Swift has taken the more direct approach of dialing up her guests, instead of sending out “save the dates,” in an attempt to keep information from leaking ahead of her big day.

While it has yet to be confirmed by the couple, top media outlets claim they will tie the knot in New York City on July 3, with a precise location still undisclosed.
