Ashley Tisdale made an interesting Instagram post after sharing her viral essay, “Breaking Up With My Toxic Mom Group,” on The Cut.

Ashley is currently promoting something coming from her lifestyle brand, Frenshe, and used a brow-raising caption for the post.

Sources revealed that the mom group drama has become too much for Ashley to handle.

If you've been waiting with bated breath for the next major update in Ashley Tisdale's toxic mom group saga to drop (guiltyyyy), the latest installment is finally here and comes courtesy of the High School Musical star's very own Instagram.

After likely experiencing a hellish week on social media, stemming from the reaction to her essay written for The Cut that revealed she severed her Hollywood celeb-filled mom group for being too toxic, Ashley's latest Instagram post is showing just how unbothered she's aspiring to be about the drama—so much so, that she's literally doing yoga.

“Find your strength within. Coming February 1st. @beingfrenshe,” she captioned a video of her doing yoga during sunrise hours. Does it count as a statement in light of everything that's been going down? No—but does it likely add a *few* more dollars to her pocket now that all eyes are on her? Absolutely.

So, what exactly did Ashley say in her essay—literally titled “Breaking Up With My Toxic Mom Group”—to cause such a fall out? Welp, in her own words, the group's vibes “took me back to an unpleasant but familiar feeling I thought I’d left behind years ago. Here I was sitting alone one night after getting my daughter to bed, thinking, Maybe I’m not cool enough? All of a sudden, I was in high school again, feeling totally lost as to what I was doing 'wrong' to be left out.”

And then when Ashley finally told the unnamed mom group that she'd be leaving, she said it “didn’t exactly go over well. Some of the others tried to smooth things over. One sent flowers, then ignored me when I thanked her for them. Another tried to convince me that everyone assumed I’d been invited to gatherings and just hadn’t shown up. Then why didn’t anyone ever ask where I was?, I wondered. To be clear, I have never considered the moms to be bad people. (Maybe one.) But I do think our group dynamic stopped being healthy and positive — for me, anyway.”

Hilary Duff's husband, Matthew Koma, then shared an unsolicited, satirical take of the essay on Instagram that read “When You're the Most Self Obsessed Tone Deaf Person on Earth, Other Moms Tend to Shift Focus to Their Actual Toddlers.”

Names weren't named in Ashley's essay, but fans began speculating that Hilary, Mandy Moore and Meghan Trainor were all in the group...and they've yet to make an official statement on the matter. FWIW, Ashley's rep told TMZ that there's “zero truth to what online 'detectives' think they’ve cracked,” while a Daily Mail source notes that the drama “is all becoming a bit too much for her to handle right now.”

Something tells me this saga won't be ending anytime soon...
