Becca Tobin Shades Hilary Duffs Husband for Ashley Tisdale Criticism

Becca Tobin is weighing in on the drama between Hilary Duff and her good friend Ashley Tisdale French.

The Glee star, 39, reacted to Duff’s husband Matthew Koma’s post shading French, 40, and her essay about toxic mom groups. Koma, 38, spoofed French’s article on Tuesday, January 6, by posing for a photo in a similar manner with a fake article of his own.

“A mom group tell-all through a father’s eyes,” Koma’s faux post read. “When you’re the most self obsessed tone deaf person on earth, other moms tend to shift focus to their actual toddlers.”

Koma’s reaction went viral and circulated online. In the comments section on a Wednesday, January 7, Threads post discussing Koma’s post, Tobin replied, “Ew.”

Mandy Moore gushed over Hilary Duff’s husband, Matthew Koma, as the fallout of Ashley Tisdale French‘s “toxic” mom group essay continues. Moore, 41, reposted an Instagram Story video shared by Koma, 38, on Wednesday, January 7, which showed her performing her hit song “Candy” at a benefit concert held in California to mark the anniversary […]

Tobin and French have been friends for years. French previously appeared on Tobin’s “Lady Gang” podcast in 2019.

French made headlines earlier this week when The Cut published the actress’ article titled “Breaking Up With My Toxic Mom Group,” which she wrote about parting ways with her former mom group after feeling excluded. (French was famously part of a squad that included Duff, Mandy Moore, Meghan Trainor and more.)

“I remember being left out of a couple of group hangs, and I knew about them because Instagram made sure it fed me every single photo and Instagram Story,” she wrote. “I was starting to feel frozen out of the group, noticing every way that they seemed to exclude me. … I told myself it was all in my head, and it wasn’t a big deal. And yet, I could sense a growing distance between me and the other members of the group, who seemed to not even care that I wasn’t around much.”

French shared that she texted the group, claiming that she told them it felt “too high school for me, and I don’t want to take part in it anymore.”

“To be clear, I have never considered the moms to be bad people. (Maybe one.) But I do think our group dynamic stopped being healthy and positive — for me, anyway,” she penned.

French’s rep later told TMZ that the essay was not about Duff, Moore and Trainor’s mom group.

After French’s article went viral, a source exclusively told Us Weekly that Duff, 38, and Moore, 41, were surprised by the piece.

“They all feel blindsided and hurt by Ashley speaking out the way she did,” an insider told Us. “From their perspective, they believed the group was supportive and coming from a good place, and they never thought there was any bad intent behind how things played out.”

While Tobin was not impressed with Koma’s post, the musician did get some support from his and Duff’s inner circle. Moore took to social media to gush over Koma, who supported her at her recent benefit concert in Los Angeles to mark the one-year anniversary of the tragic Palisades fires.

“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),” Moore wrote via her Instagram Story while resharing Koma’s clip from the show. “Love you, MB!!”
