Jaime King might not be close with Taylor Swift anymore, but their friendship still has some hope. A source exclusively revealed to Page Six that King hopes to establish a relationship with the pop star amid her tumultuous personal challenges. This news comes after an insider informed The Sun last week that the two stars are not on talking terms anymore. Nevertheless, there is love between the two, given that Swift is a godmother to the actor’s youngest son, Leo.
‘Source’ reveals Taylor Swift and Jaime King ‘haven’t been in touch’
Jaime King is looking back at her faded friendship with Taylor Swift while navigating her troubled personal life. On April 2, a source exclusively told Page Six that the actor’s “personal challenges” have played a part in her bond with Swift. The insider further gave a glimpse into where the two stand today.
According to the source, Jaime King and Taylor Swift “haven’t been in touch for a long time.” However, the insider expressed that the “Sin City” star misses her friend and hopes they can reconnect in the future. Aside from a friendship that started over a decade ago, King also hopes to revive the bond because of the special connection that her son Leo and Swift share.
The source continued, “Jaime made Taylor her son’s godmother for a reason, and she wants to continue that friendship.” The two stars became friends after connecting at the 2014 Golden Globes party.
Meanwhile, on March 28, a source echoed the same sentiments via a statement to The Sun. They revealed that although Taylor Swift and Jaime King “are not close anymore,” the pop icon takes the role of a godmother seriously. The insider stressed that Swift would “be there in a heartbeat” if her godson Leo ever needed her.
The news of Taylor Swift and Jaime King’s strained relations comes at a time when the latter is going through personal struggles. In March this year, King’s ex-husband Kyle Newman will have the sole custody of their sons, James, 11, and Leo, 9, after the actor failed to complete her rehabilitation program. Furthermore, last week, the actor was sued by her landlord and evicted from her LA rental home.
