MEGAMEGA

Ashley Tisdale‘s husband, Christopher French, has broken his silence about her viral toxic mom group drama, insisting he fully supports his wife.

The “High School Musical” alum caused a stir at the start of the year after an explosive personal essay about cutting ties with “toxic” mom friends.

Although Tisdale never mentioned anyone, theories snowballed online, and fingers were pointed at Hilary Duff, Mandy Moore, and Meghan Trainor as the suspects.

For the first time since the bombshell The Cut essay, Tisdale’s husband is sharing his thoughts, saying the scandal hasn’t affected their personal life.

“We’re doing fine,” French assured. “She’s a super smart, capable person, and she knows what she’s doing, and that’s part of what I love about her.”

Amid opinions that Tisdale shouldn’t have brought such messy drama to the public, French told Page Six she handled it as best she could.

“I will say, I have no problem supporting my wife completely in her ability to deal with her own interpersonal relationships in whatever way feels is right for her, without getting involved or feeling like I have to speak for her.”

Nevertheless, the composer shed light on how seriously the situation affected his wife, forcing her to speak out. “We are very private,” French concluded.

While French waited months for the saga to die down before speaking out, he isn’t the only spouse of the involved women to speak up.

As The Blast reported, Hilary Duff’s husband, Matthew Koma, wasted no time responding to Tisdale’s essay with a scathing remark.

Fans may recall that in the write-up, the Disney alum recalled being frozen out by a group of friends she found following the birth of her daughter in 2021.

Despite her attempts to mend things, Tisdale said they ignored her. “This is too high school for me, and I don’t want to take part in it anymore,” an excerpt of her essay read.

Following the revelation, Koma took to his social media with an image of himself photoshopped onto Tisdale’s body from her “The Cut” cover photo.

“When You’re The Most Self-Obsessed, Tone-Deaf Person On Earth, Other Moms Tend To Shift Focus To Their Actual Toddlers. A Mom Group Tell All Through A Father’s Eyes,” his fictional headline read.

Shortly after Koma’s clapback, Mandy Moore, speculated to be a member of the said group, seemingly approved of his actions.

Per The Blast, the “This Is Us” actress took to her Instagram Story to share a year-old video Koma posted of her singing at a benefit concert held for the Palisades fire.

“This feels incredibly fitting as @matthewkoma happens to be one [of] the most talented and generous humans I’m lucky to know (he literally gave my family a place to stay one year ago today when we evacuated). Love you, MB!!” Moore wrote in the accompanying caption.

However, the actress’ shout-out earned backlash from fans, who slammed her as “immature” for adding fuel to the drama.

Despite the fallout from the scandal, Tisdale seems to have moved forward in style after speaking her mind.

According to reports, the “The Suite Life of Zack & Cody” actress is in talks with Netflix to develop and executive produce a new half-hour comedy titled “Toxic Moms,” seemingly inspired by her friendship fallout.

The dark comedy, which has Ali Wong on board, follows a “sleep-deprived” mother recruited by a group of “cool, wealthy mothers” as she discovers her new clan’s “darker side.”

The Blast confirms that the project, however, has yet to be greenlit.

Away from the toxic mom group drama, Tisdale has become more vulnerable with fans, opening up about her battle with postpartum depression.

According to The Blast, the Hollywood star shared her truth on her husband’s new mental health-focused podcast, “Recovering.”

Tisdale confessed that her marriage to French was tested after the birth of their daughter Jupiter in 2021, as she tried to part ways multiple times.

“The hormonal stuff is the hardest part because you’re trying your hardest,” the 41-year-old recalled.
