From Ashley Tisdale‘s mom-group drama to Victoria Beckham‘s feud with her son, Andy Cohen covered it all on Wednesday night’s (Jan. 21) episode of Watch What Happens Live.
The Bravo Clubhouse was packed last night, with appearances from Southern Charm star Charley Manley, Dancing with the Stars finalist Dylan Efron, and Traitors icons Boston Rob and Maura Higgins. Things got juicy when a virtual caller asked Dylan for his thoughts on Tisdale’s breakup with her celebrity mom group, which she wrote about in an article for The Cut.
“I try to stay out of that so I don’t know too much,” he said. “All I know is Ashley, since I was a kid, has been so sweet to me, so I can’t envision her doing anything malicious to the mom group. Hopefully, it’s just a misunderstanding. I honestly don’t know what’s going on, though.”
Dylan and Tisdale’s friendship goes way back to the early aughts when the actress starred alongside his older brother, Zac Efron, in the Disney Channel hit movie, High School Musical, which turned 20 this week.
“I honestly don’t know what happened,” Dylan reiterated, referring to the mom group drama that allegedly involved Hilary Duff and Mandy Moore. “All I can say is she’s been so sweet. She came to Dancing with the Stars to support me. I can’t see where this drama would come from.”
Cohen, for his part, got a little shady, telling Dylan, “Yeah, she had time on her hands because she got dumped by the mom group.”
“Sorry! I mean, I love her. She’s been on this show, by the way,” Cohen clarified. “Anyway, I’m seated.”

The Bravo icon then added, “I stand with Posh, while we’re talking about current events,” referring to the Spice Girl’s son, Brooklyn Beckham, outing their dirty laundry to the world earlier this week.
In a scathing Instagram Story, Brooklyn accused his parents of spreading lies in the media “to preserve their own facade.” Brooklyn claimed Victoria backed out of making his wife Nicola Peltz’s wedding dress “in the eleventh hour,” and that the family had not been accepting of the actress. He also alleged that his mother “hijacked” their first dance at their wedding by calling him up to the stage and “inappropriately” dancing on him in front of their guests.
“Well, you’re pals with [Summer House alum] Lexi [Wood], who dated Brooklyn,” Cohen told Manley, who replied, “Oh, yeah. But I’ve never talked to her about her relationship with Brooklyn.”
Cohen added, “I’d like to bring her back to have that conversation.”
Watch What Happens Live airs Sunday through Thursday at 10 p.m. ET on Bravo. New episodes are available to stream the next day on Peacock.
