Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce may be breathing a little easier after a federal judge took decisive action to remove the pop star's name from the narrative surrounding a high-profile sexual harassment case in Hollywood.

The case involves Swift's longtime friend Blake Lively and actor Justin Baldoni, who are locked in a legal battle over allegations of harassment.

The dispute became unexpectedly personal for Swift when a court filing suggested Lively's legal team attempted to coerce Swift into making a public statement in of the actress.

The filing alleged that if Swift declined, private messages involving her could be leaked.
