The mum group involving Mandy Moore, Ashley Tisdale and Hilary Duff seems to have soured recently

“I thought I found my village. Instead, I was back in high school.” So says actress/writer Ashley Tisdale, who wrote an article for The Cut this month about breaking away from her “toxic mom group”.

Though Tisdale doesn’t name names in her piece, it’s widely believed that her “village” was made up of fellow celebrities like actresses Hilary Duff and Mandy Moore, and singer Meghan Trainor, noting previously that she had connected with these women when her daughter Jupiter was born in 2021.
