Ashley Tisdale has somber phone conversation

Ashley Tisdale was spotted stepping out solo while taking an important call as her “toxic” mom group drama continues to escalate.

The “High School Musical” star was pictured in Malibu on Friday wearing a casual light pink sweatshirt and brown leggings while chatting with someone on her smartphone.

She finished the laid-back look with turquoise socks and black sneakers, and wore her brown hair in soft waves.

The mom of two appeared somber, and at one point donned a pair of white, retro-style sunglasses as she was snapped by photographers during the outing.

Carrying a bottle of water, she was also seen texting while making her way around the sunny shopping strip mall.

The Disney Channel alum’s solo weekend outing comes amid drama generated by Tisdale’s recent essay in The Cut — in which she criticized her former mom group as “toxic” because it made her feel “not cool enough” after being excluded from hangouts.

Tisdale, 40, then recounted texting the group to notify them that she was cutting ties with the group because it was “too high school” for her.

Tisdale refrained from calling anyone out by name, but she’s been linked to a high-profile mom group that includes A-listers Hilary Duff, Mandy Moore, and Meghan Trainor, among others.

While Duff’s sister Haylie Duff appeared to side with Tisdale by “liking” The Cut’s post featuring the article, Hilary’s husband Matthew Koma lashed out in a cryptic Instagram Story, seemingly calling Tisdale “self obsessed.”

Trainor, meanwhile, appeared surprised by the drama as she shared a clip of herself “finding out about the apparent mom group drama” while surfing the web. Her 2025 hit “Still Don’t Care” played in the background.

Trainor’s husband Daryl Sabara downplayed the drama, telling TMZ on Thursday that there’s “no drama over here” and adding that he “hope[s] she’s OK,” referring to Tisdale.

A source seemingly cheered Koma’s savage social media attack on Wednesday, alleging to Page Six that he “gave her what she had coming.” 

The source added that Tisdale is “insufferable” and said that the rift “has been a long time coming.”
