Kaley Cuoco Weighs in on Ashley Tisdale’s Toxic Mom Group Drama
Kaley Cuoco is sharing her two cents on Ashley Tisdale French’s “toxic mom group” drama.
Appearing on the Thursday, February 5 episode of Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen, the Big Bang Theory alum was asked via a fan question whether she had any thoughts on the viral parenting saga.
“I mean, if you don’t like being part of a group, just leave, baby,” Cuoco, 40, replied. “Do we have to talk about it?”
When host Cohen, 57, referenced Tisdale French’s The Cut essay and Substack post, both of which slammed her mom group, Cuoco doubled down on her belief that the public discourse surrounding the whole situation was unnecessary.
“You don’t have to do that. Just leave,” the actress, who shares daughter Matilda, 2, with Tom Pelphrey, said. Cuoco added, “Find a new group.”
In January, Tisdale French, 40, caused a stir when she exposed the dynamics of her mom group in a personal essay written for The Cut. In the piece, she called out the group as “toxic” and revealed she had ultimately quit it after feeling ostracized.
She did not mention any of the other moms involved by name, but Tisdale French frequently documented playdates with celebrities such as Meghan Trainor, Mandy Moore and Hilary Duff, each of whom have young children.

“I remember being left out of a couple of group hangs, and I knew about them because Instagram made sure it fed me every single photo and Instagram Story,” Tisdale French wrote. “I was starting to feel frozen out of the group, noticing every way that they seemed to exclude me. … I told myself it was all in my head, and it wasn’t a big deal. And yet, I could sense a growing distance between me and the other members of the group, who seemed to not even care that I wasn’t around much.”
Tisdale French described parting ways with the other mom by texting the group that it felt “too high school for me, and I don’t want to take part in it anymore.”
After fans pointed the finger at the famous mom group as being the one Tisdale French was referencing in the essay, her representative denied the speculation.
However, when Duff’s husband Matthew Coma, 38, uploaded a post mocking Tisdale French’s essay, it further fueled the fire and indicated that it was the celebrity group that included the Lizze Maguire star that Tisdale French had been talking about.
In his Instagram post, Coma took a swipe at the High School Musical star by sharing a fictional version of the article in The Cut.
“A mom group tell-all through a father’s eyes,” Koma’s article read. “When you’re the most self obsessed tone deaf person on earth, other moms tend to shift focus to their actual toddlers.”
Meanwhile, Cuoco is part of her own mom group. Following the headline-making drama surrounding Tisdale French’s mom group, Cuoco’s mom friends celebrated their own close connection.
“Mom groups are having a real moment on the interweb this week. Shoutout to my village, without whom I could be very lost and lonely,” Cuoco’s friend Ashley Jones wrote via Instagram on January 7, alongside several photos of their mom squad. “Tag your supportive ride or die mom group!”

President Trump Shares Racist Video of Michelle, Barack Obama as Apes
President Trump
Goes Apesh*t on the Obamas!!!
Published
It’s no secret President Donald Trump and the Obamas don’t get along … but DT has now taken their bad vibes to a whole new level, posting a short video of Barack and Michelle depicted as apes.
Trump uploaded the shocking clip on his Truth Social platform Thursday night — and it begins with a voice speaking about alleged fraud in the 2020 presidential election. As you know, Trump lost to Joe Biden in the 2020 race, but Trump has always maintained the election was stolen from him.
Then the video cuts a brief scene showing Barack and Michelle’s heads superimposed on apes dancing in a jungle as The Tokens 1961 classic, “The Lion Sleeps Tonight,” plays in the background.
Karoline Leavitt addressed the clip in a statement to TMZ … “This is from an internet meme video depicting President Trump as the King of the Jungle and Democrats as characters from the Lion King. Please stop the fake outrage and report on something today that actually matters to the American public.”
Still, DT is getting ripped apart on social media for being racist, and California Governor Gavin Newsom is also getting in a few licks, calling the video “disgusting” and urging all Republicans to condemn it.
TMZ has reached out to the Obamas for comment … so far, no word back.

She began her modeling career at just 14, hitting the runway at the Campoamor Fashion Show in the Spanish city of Oviedo.

As we said, Galcenco was only 21.

Milo Ventimiglia Speaks About Being a New Dad and Expecting Baby No 2
Milo Ventimiglia is getting candid about a massive year, which included losing his home in the L.A. fires, welcoming his first child with wife Jarah Mariano just two weeks later and now, expecting their second baby together.
Appearing on the Thursday, February 5 episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live!, Ventimiglia, 48, joked that he’d lost track of what day it was amid the chaos and that they “must be crazy” to go back to back with a second pregnancy.
“Got a beautiful daughter, she’s wonderful. What day is it?” Ventimiglia joked to host Kimmel, 58, as he shared details of how he was adjusting to fatherhood after welcoming daughter Ke’ala in January 2025. “Thursday, wonderful. It’s the same as Wednesday or Tuesday, yeah. They’re all the same. Monday, Tuesday, Thursday…”
After Kimmel asked whether Ke’ala was keeping the This is Us alum awake at night, Ventimiglia shared that while their daughter slept through until early hours of the morning, he and Mariano still fretted over her.
“She’s actually doing great, she’s sleeping through the night. She loves to wake up at 5.40 in the morning and talk to herself. Kinda jabber on and whatnot. My wife and I are laying in bed, like ‘Does she have her [pacifer]?’ ‘I don’t know, I can’t tell from the monitor.’ ‘Did she poop herself?’ ‘I don’t know, I can’t tell from the monitor,’” he recalled. “And then you’re kind of like, after a certain period of time, you know this. You walk in there, you’re like, well, she didn’t poop herself, and she’s got her [pacifier], so the world’s good.”
Ventimiglia also admitted that while he initially had grand plans to be a “wonderparent,” he was forced to take a step back and acknowledge the pair had faced a “hard and wonderful” year after losing their Malibu home and becoming first-time parents in a short period of time.

“Listen, my wife is the most unbelievable — Jarah, if you’re watching, you are the most unbelievable human being, creature, species of everything. She handles everything great. But you know, I mean, when you’re a first parent too, you kind of think you’re going to be this wonderparent,” he explained.
He continued, “I was striving to. I’m like, ‘Cool man, I’m going to be the healthiest, we’re going to feed this baby organic, we’re going to buy blenders, do all this stuff, we’re going to go argue with some dude named Kale about blueberries at the farmers’ market.’ Then after a while you’re like, ‘Oh, man, we had quite a year.’”
Ventimiglia was one of many celebrities and Californian residents who suffered the loss of their homes when fires wreaked havoc on the region last year. Mariano was heavily pregnant at the time and during his Kimmel appearance, Ventimiglia touched on the experience.
“If anybody doesn’t know, we lost our home in the fires in Malibu top of the year. It’s okay, it happened, thank you. Two weeks later, got the best blessing and our daughter was born. Six weeks later, on the road to do this movie that is coming out this month, I Can Only Imagine 2. Literally on the road,’” he said.
Joking that reality thwarted his super parent ambitions, Ventimiglia continued, “While you’re on the road you’re like, ‘Where’s my blender?’ It’s dawn. You’re not making organic foods anymore.”
After Kimmel trolled the Gilmore Girls alum about how much harder it will be to be a dad to two children, Ventimiglia also joked about being apprehensive about what’s on its way.
“You saw me hard swallow, right? I hard swallowed,” he remarked. “Now I know it’s coming. But at a certain point, don’t they start to entertain each other?”
