Kaley Cuoco has two words to say about the mom group drama that recently rocked Hollywood: “Just leave.” 

The actress weighed in on the drama that broke out when Ashley Tisdale revealed via a shocking essay that she cut ties with her former mom group following a string of events that made her feel alienated.

What Did Kaley Cuoco Say About Ashley Tisdale’s Mom Group Drama?

Kaley Cuoco made an appearance on “Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen” on Thursday. During a segment, a fan asked Cuoco to give her candid opinion on Tisdale’s falling out with her mom friends, since she is also part of a mom group herself. 

The “Big Bang Theory” actress shook her head and said, “I mean, if you don’t like being part of the group, just leave, baby,” she said, to which host Cohen agreed.

Explaining her point of view, Cuoco added, “I don’t think we have to talk about it,” to which Cohen quipped, “Like, write an essay about it.”

Concluding her speech, the 40-year-old stated, “Just leave, find a new group.”  A fellow guest chimed in, “Find someone else,” and Cuoco agreed to that as well.

Dylan Efron Called Ashley Tisdale ‘Sweet’ Amid Mom Group Drama

Weeks before Cuoco’s statements, Dylan Efron similarly weighed in on the drama. However, he seemed to lean towards defense for Tisdale. 

During a previous interview with Andy Cohen, Efron made it clear that while he tries to be intentional about staying out of drama, he knows that Tisdale has a good personality. 

“All I know is, Ashley, since I was a kid, she’s been so sweet to me,” he said, per The Blast

He further noted that he couldn’t picture his long-time friend being the source of toxicity in the group and hoped for it all to be a “misunderstanding.” 

However, Efron was quick to admit that he didn’t know the full details of the situation, so it may be more than a misunderstanding after all, before describing Tisdale as “so sweet.”

Another star who shared their thoughts on the situation is “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” star Crystal Minkoff, who could relate to Tisdale’s experience.

According to The Blast, she explained that she lost 14 friends when she went on the reality show and, as such, could relate to Tisdale’s feeling of being left out. 

Minkoff acknowledged that she found the whole situation “interesting,” and when she reached out to a member of the group, they said, “It’s so ironic that we’re the toxic ones and she’s on her own.”

The reality star then truthfully admitted that she had mixed emotions about it all because while she could relate to Tisdale, she also couldn’t imagine Hilary Duff being a toxic person.

Over her ten-year relationship with the actress, she got to know her as a “super sweet” person with no trace of meanness. 

Notably, Duff, Mandy Moore, and Meghan Trainor were reportedly part of the mom group Tisdale left behind.

While Minkoff’s falling out with her 14 friends was a result of her debut on “RHOB,” Tisdale’s experience seemed to be a result of subtle occurrences that piled up over time. 

In her essay, Tisdale revealed that she was systematically being left out of group gatherings, which made her feel “frozen” out of everything. While she tried to brush it off at first, it eventually became clear to her that it was an intentional act from other members of the group. That was when she decided to leave. 

The 40-year-old entertainer sent a text to her former friends explaining the reason for her exit and likening it to something that would happen in high school. 

According to The Blast, a source confirmed that Tisdale has indeed been feeling disconnected from the group long before she took her exit. The source also revealed that the actress made the move because she didn’t want to support toxic behaviour from her friends.
