NEED TO KNOW

• During one segment, a fan asked the Vanished actress her thoughts on the Ashley Tisdale “toxic” mom group drama following the High School Musical star’s viral essay

• Cuoco, who is mom to 2-year-old daughter Matilda, said that she didn’t see the need to write about leaving the group

Kaley Cuoco is the latest celebrity to share her thoughts on the drama surrounding Ashley Tisdale French and her “toxic” mom group.

During an appearance Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen on Thursday, Feb. 5, to promote her latest series, Vanished, the actress, 40, was asked by a fan to weigh in on the saga since she has a mom group of her own.

Shaking her head and closing her eyes, Cuoco — who is mom to daughter Matilda, 2, with her fiancé, Tom Pelphrey — responded, “I mean, if you don’t like being part of a group, just leave, baby.”

“Right?” Host Andy Cohen added.

“I don’t think we have to talk about it,” Cuoco continued, to which Cohen, 57, interjected, “Like, write an essay about it.”

“You don’t have to do that,” Cuoco said with a smile. “Just leave … find a new group.”

“Find someone else,” added fellow guest, Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Erika Jayne.

“Yeah,” agreed Cuoco.

The Flight Attendant star sharing her thoughts comes after a member of her own mom group celebrated their “supportive” unit following Tisdale French’s viral essay for The Cut — titled “Breaking Up With My Toxic Mom Group”  last month.

Days after the article caused a stir, actress Ashley Jones took to Instagram to share a since-deleted post featuring her celebrity friends such as Cuoco, Lacey Chabert, Kimberley J. Brown and Ali Fedotows.

“Mom groups are having a real moment on the interweb this week,” Jones wrote alongside a carousel of photos of the women with their little ones. “Shoutout to my village, without whom I could be very lost and lonely.”

“Tag your supportive ride or die mom group! I miss them all this little, but so grateful we had each other during this stage — and every stage,” she continued. “#lifteachother #womensupportingwomen **not all are pictured, but all who are pictured are loved #momgroup.”

In her essay, Tisdale French wrote that being part of her own group felt like “mean” girls and that it was “too high school for her to remain in.

“If a mom group consistently leaves you feeling hurt, drained or left out, it’s not the mom group for you,” she penned. “Choosing to step away doesn’t make you mean or judgmental. It makes you honest with yourself. It’s also worth remembering that friendships, like all relationships, have seasons.”

Tisdale French is mom to daughters Jupiter Iris, 4, and Emerson Clover, 1, with her husband, composer Christopher French.

While the High School Musical star did not name the women from her former mom group in her essay, fans were quick to speculate she was talking about a group that included Gaby Dalkin, Hilary Duff, Meghan Trainor, Mandy Moore and others.
