Becca Tobin isn't a fan of Hilary Duff's husband Matthew Koma's decision to get involved in her mom group drama.

The Glee alum, 39, spoke about Ashley Tisdale French's "toxic" mom group drama on a Tuesday, Jan. 13 episode of her podcast LadyGang and slammed the Lizzie McGuire alum's husband for involving himself in the drama.

"Now let me tell you, I don't think there's any loser...there's no loser in this group, to me, not one except for Hilary Duff's husband," Tobin said on the podcast. "I think it is so gross when husbands jump in and get petty. Especially since Ashley did not name names."

Tisdale French's recent personal essay published in The Cut on Jan. 5 detailed her decision to leave what she referred to as her "toxic" mom group. She kept the women from her former friend group anonymous in the piece, and a rep for Tisdale French denied that the essay was referring to Duff's friend group to TMZ.

"I really am rubbed the wrong way when a man inserts himself like this, and it's solely for him to get attention," Tobin continued.

Her co-host Jac Vanek then said that Koma, who is a musician, is known as someone who can "stir the pot" on the Internet.

"He always inserts himself into things. So it's not as surprising that he would do that in that situation as like, a normal husband," continued Vanek. "I wouldn't want my husband doing it."

Tobin went on to say that her issue with Koma was that he publicly "attacked" Tisdale French.

"He called her self-obsessed, or whatever. He said something about her being self-absorbed and I think that's so tacky," she said. "I would be so upset with my husband, whether or not I get along with this person. We had a falling out...whatever the thing is. She goes low, and then he goes lower."

"I think it's actually really gross when a man comments on something like this. It's offensive for what he said about her. I don't like it at all," added Tobin.

On Jan. 6, Koma posted a photo of himself on his Instagram Stories, propped up the same way as Tisdale French's photo shoot for her essay. In the photo, he was seen sitting on a couch next to a houseplant while wearing an all-black outfit paired with rose-tinted lensed sunglasses.

Koma added The Cut's logo and a fictional headline to the photo, which read "When You're The Most Self Obsessed Tone Deaf Person On Earth, Other Moms Tend To Shift Focus To Their Actual Toddlers," with a sub-headline that read, "A Mom Group Tell All Through A Father's Eyes."

"Read my new interview with @TheCut," Koma captioned the Instagram Story post.

Although Tobin said she doesn't know much about the inner workings of Tisdale French's former friend group, she shared that she can see both sides of the argument.

"This is where she is in her life. This is the moment that she's at in her life," she said. "A young mom with young kids. Your world revolves around your kids, so then your world becomes your friend group. And I think she was just trying to...and it's relatable, many women deal with this as they become moms and navigate mom groups."

"I understand why she did it, but what I don't understand is that somebody in her life should have told her, the Internet sleuths of America – of the world — are so incredible that they're going to know within three seconds that this article comes out exactly who you're talking about," said Tobin. "It's very obvious."
