That of Meghan Trainor husband Daryl Sabara addressed the drama surrounding Ashley Tisdale French mom group.
Approached by TMZ On Thursday (January 8), Sabara dismissed suggestions that there was coolness on her side after French wrote a viral article for The Cup, criticizing a former friendship group with other moms that she was a part of.
“No drama here, just trying to keep the kids happy,” Sabara, 33, said after being asked what he thought about the controversy. (Sabara and Trainer share two sons: Riley, 4, and Barry, 2.)
While Sabara brushed aside questions about the drama, the Child spies The star expressed her hope that the well-being of the French would not be affected.
“I don’t really know what’s going on,” he added. “I hope she’s okay.”

Earlier Thursday, Trainor, 32, broke his silence on French’s essay by posting a clip via TikTok.
“I’m finding out about the apparent mom group drama,” Trainor wrote in the TikTok video uploaded on Thursday, January 8. The short clip showed her sitting at a desk and typing on a computer while her song “Still Don’t Care” played. She captioned the post with three tea emojis.
French caused a stir when she exposed the dynamics of her mothers’ group in a personal essay written for The cut. In the article, French called the group “toxic” and revealed that she ultimately left the group after feeling ostracized.

And yet, I felt a growing distance between me and the other members of the group, who didn’t even seem to care that I wasn’t there much.”
French described her split with the other mom by sending a message to the group saying it felt “too high school for me, and I don’t want to be part of it anymore.”
After fans pointed the finger at the famous mom group as the one French was referring to in the essay, a rep for French denied the speculation in a statement to TMZ on Monday January 5.
Ashley Tisdale French’s unfiltered comment about being excluded from a “toxic” mom group has caught the attention of many other celebrities. In January 2026, Ashley – who shares two daughters with husband Christopher French – raised eyebrows with an essay for The Cut titled “Breaking Up With My Toxic Mom Group” as she candidly spoke […]
The rep said French’s article “Breaking Up With My Toxic Mom Group” was written to highlight an issue relevant to women who have been excluded from a friend group and was not specifically about Trainor, Moore, Duff and the others.

Posting via her Instagram Stories on Tuesday, January 6, Koma, 38, shared her own fictionalized version of The Cut’s article.
“A group of moms tell it all through a dad’s eyes,” Koma’s fictional article reads. “When you’re the most self-obsessed deaf person in the world, other moms tend to focus on their little ones.”
