Hilary Duff boasts her ‘talent’ is cutting out friends amid Ashley Tisdale drama
You can add “cutting friends out” to her resume.
Hilary Duff boasted about her “talent” for cutting out friends who aren’t “right” in a resurfaced interview amid her drama with Ashley Tisdale.
While speaking to Jake Shane in an episode of his “Therapuss” podcast in November, the TV star opened up about learning who to trust from an early age.
“I’ve always had a really good gauge with people — I think it’s like a little talent that I have really good friends and it doesn’t take me long to figure someone out, just figure out if someone’s not for me,” she admitted, noting that she’s the “mom of the friend group.”
Duff, who rose to fame as Lizzie McGuire on Disney, then noted that “friendship breakups could possibly be worse than a breakup breakup.”
Talking about what she does when she ends a friendship with someone, the 38-year-old said, “You have to own it and be like ‘I can’t show up for you in this capacity right now, it’s overwhelming, like I need some space.’
“I’ve had to do it a few times and I always want my side of the street to be clean. I don’t want to make anyone feel bad, but my actions — I rather have a conversation about it.”
The “What Dreams Are Made Of” singer’s comments have resurfaced after Tisdale called out her former mom group — which Duff belongs to — for allegedly being toxic.
In an essay for The Cut published on New Year’s Day, the “High School Musical” alum wrote about feeling “not cool enough” after being excluded from hangouts.
Tisdale, 40, recalled texting the group, “This is too high school for me and I don’t want to take part in it anymore.”
Although she “never considered the moms to be bad people [except for] maybe one,” she chose to cut ties with them after the “dynamic stopped being healthy and positive.”
The mom group, in part, includes Duff, Mandy Moore and Meghan Trainor. And although Tisdale did not name-drop anyone in the essay, eagle-eyed fans noticed she no longer follows Duff and the “This Is Us” actress on social media.
Page Six was also able to piece together a timeline, discovering that the last time Tisdale was pictured hanging out with the group was in December 2024.
Though the moms of the groups have remained tight-lipped about the essay, the husbands, on the other hand, have stepped up to the plate.
Matthew Koma, the “Younger” actress’ husband, trolled Tisdale by sharing a photo meant to mock her cover for The Cut.
Atop a portrait of him looking pensive, a headline read, “A mom group tell all through a father’s eyes: When You’re the Most Self-Obsessed Tone Deaf Person on Earth, Other Moms Tend to Shift Focus To Their Actual Toddlers.”
“Matthew gave her what she had coming,” a source familiar with the feud told Page Six Wednesday, claiming that Tisdale is “insufferable.”
The insider further said that the friend breakup “has been a long time coming.”
Tisdale’s husband, on the other hand, shared his own cryptic message on social media.
“It’s your choice whether or not to engage,” the message shared by Christopher French read in colorful letters.
