From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it’s investigating the financials of Elon Musk’s pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, ‘The A Word’, which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.<\/p>\n
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.<\/p>\n
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.<\/p>\n

During Thursday\u2019s episode of \u2018Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen,\u2019 Kaley Cuoco criticized Ashley Tisdale\u2019s decision to publish an essay about her former friend group (Getty Images)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\u201cYou don\u2019t have to do that,\u201d Cuoco added. \u201cJust leave \u2026 find a new group.\u201d <\/p>\n
The actor\u2019s comments come after Tisdale detailed \u201cmean girl behavior\u201d in the mom group she was involved in, in Los Angeles. While Tisdale has not named the participants in the group, she was previously photographed in a group with celebrity moms, including Hilary Duff, Mandy Moore and Meghan Trainor.<\/p>\n
In the essay, Tisdale \u2014 who shares two children with music composer Christopher French \u2014 wrote that she felt as though she had \u201cfound a village\u201d in her mom group after the birth of her daughter Jupiter, in 2021. <\/p>\n
But Tisdale claimed the dynamic took a turn for the worse when she was \u201cfrozen out of the group\u201d and \u201cexcluded\u201d before she noticed their supposed high school-style behavior. She wrote: \u201cI 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.\u201d<\/p>\n
Last month, Duff\u2019s husband, Matthew Koma, came to his wife\u2019s defense by posting a fake magazine cover of himself, with the headline: \u201cA mom group tell all through a father\u2019s eyes: When You\u2019re the Most Self-Obsessed Tone Deaf Person on Earth, Other Moms Tend to Shift Focus To Their Actual Toddlers.\u201d<\/p>\n
He added in a sarcastic caption: \u201cRead my new interview with @thecut.\u201d<\/p>\n
However, a representative for Tisdale told TMZ<\/em> on January 5 that her essay was not about her friendship with Moore, Duff and Trainor, claiming she aimed to highlight issues mothers face based on her personal experience with a different group of friends.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Your support helps us to tell the story From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing.
