Hilary Duff's husband Matthew Koma has sparked controversy after publicly criticizing Ashley Tisdale French over her essay about toxic mom groups. In a now-deleted Instagram story, Koma shared a photo of himself superimposed onto Tisdale French's body and accompanied by a tongue-in-cheek caption that poked fun at the actress's recent article for The Cut.
In his post, Koma seemed to take issue with some of the opinions expressed in Tisdale French's essay. While the actress wrote about how her friend group had turned toxic and made her feel like she was back in high school, Koma appeared to imply that she might be overly self-absorbed. His comments were seen as a thinly veiled attempt to deflect attention from his own wife Hilary Duff, who has also been accused of being part of the "toxic mom group" that Tisdale French wrote about.
The essay in question, titled "Breaking Up With My Toxic Mom Group," was written by Tisdale French, who shared her personal experience of how a friend group turned toxic and made her feel inadequate. She warned other moms against getting caught up in similar dynamics, saying that motherhood already has enough challenges without having to worry about the loyalty of those around them.
Koma's response has raised eyebrows among fans and critics alike, with many feeling that his comments were out of line and unbecoming of a husband who is expected to support his wife. The drama surrounding Tisdale French's essay has also sparked a wider conversation about toxic mom groups and the challenges that women face in navigating these types of friendships.
Representatives for all three parties involved have yet to comment on Koma's post, but it's clear that the controversy is far from over. As one Twitter user put it, "This whole thing is just a mess."

oh boy, what a total weird move by Matthew Koma 
think he was trying to deflect attention from Hilary Duff but really just made himself look like a jerk 
gotta wonder if Koma even read the whole thing or just took a swipe at his wife 
anyway, it's all about women supporting each other (or not) these days, lol 
I'm low-key surprised Matt Koma went there... thought he was above all that drama 
Could be a case of "oh woe is me" just to shift attention away from herself 
Guess we'll have to keep an eye on this one 
his hubby Hilary Duff and friend Ashley Tisdale French all got caught up in this toxic mom drama 
and now he's trying to play the victim? 
instead of being a creep and Photoshopping yourself onto her body 
seriously, what's wrong with him? 
. His comments about her essay being "self-absorbed" come across as petty and deflective. Newsflash, Matthew: your wife has been accused of being part of the same toxic mom group that Tisdale French wrote about - isn't it time to own up to your own mistakes instead of trying to roast someone else? 
. Like, come on, Matt - your wife's already being scrutinized for allegedly being part of a toxic mom group? Do you really think mocking Ashley Tisdale French will make everything okay? 
. And now everyone's talking about toxic mom groups... 
. As a husband myself (well, not with Hilary Duff but I have friends who are 
), I know how important it is to support your partner, especially when they're going through a tough time.
.
. Can't we all just have a respectful convo about toxic mom groups without the shade? 
it's like he thought that would be a funny way to diss her without actually saying anything meaningful. but honestly, his husband hilary duff is the one who's been accused of being part of the "toxic mom group" that ashley wrote about 
i'm not sure what's going on with these celebrity couples and their social media drama
