Tisdale's Mom Group Drama: Efron Brother Defends Star

Ashley Tisdale is navigating fallout from her mom friend group, with Dylan Efron offering his support. Tisdale recently shared an essay detailing how her mom group became "toxic," citing "mean-girl behavior" and dynamics that led to feelings of exclusion.

She described instances of being left out of group chats and social gatherings, often discovering these events through social media. Tisdale felt increasingly "frozen out" and excluded by the group.

Dylan Efron, brother of Tisdale's High School Musical co-star Zac Efron, addressed the situation on a television show. He stated he didn't know many details but defended Tisdale, emphasizing her lifelong kindness to him and questioning if the situation was a misunderstanding.

An insider suggested the conflict stemmed from a "misalignment of values" and that Tisdale's decision to make it public was unnecessary, as friends can naturally drift apart. Tisdale's essay also alluded to online speculation about the identities involved.
