Christopher French is speaking publicly for the first time about the fallout from Ashley Tisdale's viral essay about leaving what she called a "toxic mom group."
Speaking to Page Six, French said he and Tisdale are "doing fine" nine months after the essay set off speculation about her former circle of friends. "She's a super smart, capable person, and she knows what she's doing and that's part of what I love about her," he said.
French said supporting his wife did not mean stepping into the dispute or speaking for her. He trusted Tisdale to decide which relationships were right for her and how she wanted to handle them.
His comments arrive as the couple is discussing a different period of their marriage publicly through French's new Recovering podcast, where Tisdale opened up about postpartum depression after the birth of their first daughter.
French said he had "no problem supporting my wife completely" while leaving her interpersonal relationships for her to manage.

During his ex-wife's murder trial, Patrick Clancy faced intense scrutiny online, with social media users often questioning his character. Now, as he reflects on the tragedy, Clancy says he believes he did the best he could with the information he had at the time.
"I think I did the best I could with what I had at the time, and I live with the outcome. I live with it every day, but I think I did the best I could," Clancy told correspondent Ross Douthat after being asked whether he feels angry with himself or like he failed in some way.
He and his wife, Dr. Rachel Danis, spoke with 60 Minutes after Lindsay Clancy's case ended in a mistrial.
Lindsay Clancy's defense team has argued that she was suffering from postpartum psychosis when she killed their three children, 5-year-old Cora, 3-year-old Dawson, and 8-month-old Callan in January 2023.

Spencer Pratt is seemingly making his feelings known about the Lindsay Clancy case following the mistrial in the Massachusetts mother's murder trial.
Pratt, 43, appeared to reference the case in a post on X on Thursday, September 10, days after a jury was unable to reach a unanimous verdict on whether Clancy, 36, should be held criminally responsible for killing her three children.
"Shout out to my mom for not strangling me to death with an exercise band when I was an infant," the Hills alum, who unsuccessfully ran for mayor of Los Angeles earlier this year, wrote. "You're the best, ma!"

Clancy was charged with murdering her children, Cora, 5, Dawson, 3, and Callan, 8 months, at the family's Duxbury, Massachusetts, home in January 2023. Her defense did not dispute that she killed the children but argued that she was suffering from postpartum psychosis and should be found not guilty by reason of insanity. Prosecutors maintained that Clancy understood the wrongfulness of her actions.

Kourtney Kardashian has opened up about what heading back to work while going through postpartum looked like for her.
The Lemme founder, 44, is a few months into the postpartum stage, often dubbed the "fourth trimester," after welcoming her fourth child, son Rocky Thirteen, her first with husband Travis Barker, in late October.

Over the weekend, Kourtney took to Instagram and shared some behind the scenes photos from her time on set shooting promo shots for the upcoming season of The Kardashians on Hulu, and got candid about "not feeling quite ready" to be back in front of the camera.
"BTS shooting all the promos for our kardashianshulu billboards n' stuff for season 5!" she wrote, before admitting: "I was three months postpartum and not feeling quite ready for a big shoot like this where there's lots and lots of people watching me all day."

Rep. Brandon Gill (R-Texas) said he has no sympathy for Lindsay Clancy after her murder trial ended in a mistrial, rejecting the defense's argument that severe mental illness left her not criminally responsible for killing her three children.
"I don't have an ounce of sympathy for Lindsay Clancy," Gill said Friday on Fox News's "The Will Cain Show."
"I have an enormous amount of sympathy for the three little innocent kids who were slaughtered," he said earlier.
Gill went on to push back against the central argument of Clancy's defense: that she was experiencing postpartum psychosis when she strangled her three children — Cora, 5, Dawson, 3, and Callan, 8 months — at the family's Massachusetts home in 2023.
"You don't get licensed to murder your children or anybody else just because you have mental health problems," Gill said. "We've gotten in a habit of medicalizing evil."

Cardi B has spoken out about Lindsay Clancy, the former Massachusetts nurse charged with strangling her three children.
On Thursday (August 27), the rapper took to X **** es to direct her anger at anyone invoking postpartum psychosis to explain the deaths.
"One thing about me, when it comes to kids, is stop looking for different loopholes to give this woman an excuse for why these three kids are dead," she said. "A lot of y'all are talking about her husband probably did it, or the system failed her. We need to stop looking for an excuse. If your mental health is so **** up that you kill three f**kingkids, maybe you shouldn't be on the streets."
COMPLEX SHOP: Shop the brands you love, anytime and anywhere. Uncover what's next. Buy. Collect. Obsess.
"A lot of women in our hood are suffering from postpartum depression," Cardi continued. "There are women in our hoods whom **** ody offered to help with their children. Does that give them an excuse to kill their kids?"

Olivia Munn has a lot going on. The star of Apple TV's "Your Friends & Neighbors" is busy filming the series' third season while parenting her two children, Malcom and Méi, with her husband, John Mulaney, and serving as the new face of Anne Klein's fall-winter 2026 campaign. All of this while getting ready for fashion month and the upcoming 2026 Emmy Awards ceremony.
But Munn is a master of finding beauty in the chaos. Especially after a roller coaster last few years, in which the actress battled back-to-back health issues. Following the birth of her son in 2021, Munn's battled the depths of postpartum anxiety.
Then, in April 2023, the actress was diagnosed with "an aggressive, fast-moving" Luminal B breast cancer in both ****** . Having detected the cancer early, she acted quickly, and by the following year, Munn had five successful surgeries, including a double mastectomy and reconstructive surgery, and a partial hysterectomy. Then, in September 2024, she welcomed her daughter via surrogate.
Now, with the dust of the last few years settling, Munn is recentering her focus on what brings her happiness, such as going back to work, hanging out with her close girlfriends, date nights with her husband, and all things fashion. And even better yet, advocacy through fashion.
"Women change women's lives," Munn tells USA Today of her partnership with Anne Klein. The famed American designer herself died at the age of 50 from breast cancer in 1974. "Sometimes the most important thing you can do is remind another woman to take that next step with their health. Those are the meaningful connections that sometimes really can lift you out of your fog."

Aug. 24 (UPI) -- Lesley Vogel, the mother of late Heroes star Hayden Panettiere, says her daughter's death still "doesn't feel real."
Vogel, 70, discussed Panettiere and the actress' relationship with her on-again, off-again boyfriend Brian Hickerson in an interview Monday on Good Morning America.
Panettiere, who started acting as a child and later starred in Nashville, Ice Princess and Scream 4, died Aug. 16 at age 36. The actress had described her struggles with addiction, postpartum depression and her fraught relationship with Vogel in her memoir This is Me, released in May.
In the GMA interview, Vogel addressed her "haters" and said critics "don't have a right to tell me how I mourn the loss of my second child" following the death of Panettiere's brother, Jansen, at age 28 in 2023.
When asked to share the "truth" of her relationship with Panettiere, Vogel said the star had "a very happy life" until she landed a lead role in Heroes at age 16.

More details about Hayden Panettiere's relationship with Brian Hickerson continue to emerge days after her death.
According to a new report from Rob Shuter's Naughty But Nice Substack published on Monday, August 24, Brian, 37, was pressuring the Scream 4 star to have a child with him.
"Brian wasn't casually talking about someday becoming a father — he was pushing Hayden to have a baby with him," a source told the outlet.
However, Panettiere — who shared daughter Kaya, 11, with her ex-fiancé Wladimir Klitschko — "understood exactly what another pregnancy could potentially mean for her emotionally," according to the source.
"She wasn't convinced it was something she wanted to risk," the source continued. "Hayden knew how badly things had gone after Kaya. She had lived through postpartum depression, addiction and the heartbreak of being separated from her daughter. Brian wanted a baby. Hayden understood the possible consequences. That was the tension between them."

About two weeks after giving birth, Bridget María Chesterton was curled up on the bathroom floor, saying things that made little sense. Later, in the emergency room, she kept repeating, "What's going on?" She'd lost touch with reality.
The family eventually learned that Chesterton had postpartum psychosis, a severe mental health disorder thrust into the spotlight by the case of Lindsay Clancy, a Massachusetts woman on trial for strangling her three children. A key question is whether postpartum psychosis drove Clancy to do it.
Researchers estimate that the condition — a mental health emergency that is less common than postpartum depression — afflicts 1 to 2 out of 1,000 women after delivery. Although most who develop postpartum psychosis don't harm their children, mothers with severe cases may try to harm themselves or their kids.
If not for medication and strong family support, Chesterton said her own situation "could have gone sideways."
Chesterton bristles at online comments about the Clancy case suggesting postpartum psychosis is not a real disorder. She feels driven to raise awareness by sharing her story publicly; a poem she wrote about the experience will be published in a journal in the fall. She wants to dispel misconceptions about the widely misunderstood condition — and let families know there is hope.

Fox News's The Big Weekend Show took on the issue of postpartum depression when discussing the case of Lindsay Clancy, a nurse on trial for the murder of her three children.
"I think that this topic, I wish we had more time for it, because it's not going to get solved in five minutes, right?" host Tomi Lahren began. "It's such a gray area and so much nuance here. Now, again, it's not to say that Lindsay Clancy does not need to pay for what she did do her three children. That is a horrific tragedy, and I think there are few people who believe that she should get off scot-free for this, and I'm not one of those people who thinks that she doesn't need to pay for what she did."
Lahren continued:
I'm simply saying this: To dismiss postpartum depression as if it is a figment of the imagination, as if it is not real, as if it couldn't possibly impact women, I think is irresponsible. I think There's a discussion that needs to be had in the country about the drugs that mothers are put on, the number of drugs mums are put on, how postpartum is handled in our health care health care system, and just an overall discussion on this which so many women deal with. Now, that is a discussion that can happen simultaneously with saying that this person needs to pay for what she did to her three kids because three kids are dead.
So, I think there are few people that are dismissing the tragedy that occurred. It's more about having an honest discussion about what women go through, and perhaps trying to find a solution that doesn't fail mothers who are crying out for help. And that's what I will say on that, and I know it's polarizing, but shutting down the discussion doesn't help anybody either.

I'm simply saying this: To dismiss postpartum depression as if it is a figment of the imagination, as if it is not real, as if it couldn't possibly impact women, I think is irresponsible. I think There's a discussion that needs to be had in the country about the drugs that mothers are put on, the number of drugs mums are put on, how postpartum is handled in our health care health care system, and just an overall discussion on this which so many women deal with. Now, that is a discussion that can happen simultaneously with saying that this person needs to pay for what she did to her three kids because three kids are dead.
So, I think there are few people that are dismissing the tragedy that occurred. It's more about having an honest discussion about what women go through, and perhaps trying to find a solution that doesn't fail mothers who are crying out for help. And that's what I will say on that, and I know it's polarizing, but shutting down the discussion doesn't help anybody either.

Following Hayden Panettiere's shocking death, fans are resurfacing some of the career revelations she shared in her final months, including her allegation that Neutrogena attempted to end their longtime partnership after she spoke publicly about her postpartum depression.
Now, the brand is speaking out.
In her 2026 memoir "This Is Me: A Reckoning" and interviews promoting the book in May, the 36-year-old said the cosmetics brand, owned by Kenvue, wanted to "fire" her after she shed light on her condition on "Live with Kelly and Michael" in 2015, less than a year after she gave birth to her daughter, Kaya.
Panettiere's comments drew backlash in May from social media users – including one beauty content creator who declared "Neutrogena hates women!" – and criticism of the brand saw renewed fervor after the "Heroes" actress died at age 36 on Aug. 16. One Reddit post, which earned more than 2,500 upvotes, proposed a boycott against Neutrogena. Comments under another post mirrored this sentiment, with one user calling Panettiere's commercials a "core memory" for millennials.
The drama, explained: Will a Neutrogena boycott by Hayden Panettiere's fans work?

Neutrogena has responded after comments from late actress Hayden Panettiere resurfaced, in which she claimed the brand ended their decade-long partnership after she spoke publicly about her experience with postpartum depression.
In the wake of Panettiere's untimely death at age 36 on Aug. 16, Neutrogena has been subject to widespread backlash and calls for a consumer boycott. On Thursday, Aug. 20, it issued a statement saying it was "deeply saddened" by her passing.
"For more than a decade, Hayden was a valued member of our Neutrogena community. We are proud to have partnered with her and understand that we made her feel unsupported during a very difficult time. This is not what Neutrogena stands for or who we want to be."
"Hayden's courage in sharing her challenges helped inspire important conversations and awareness," the statement continued. "We are making a significant investment in a long-standing community health partner to help give more women access to the support they need, including care for postpartum depression. We will share more details with this community when plans are in place."
Panettiere-who first rose to fame on NBC's Heroes-started working with Neutrogena in the mid-2000s.

Representatives for the beauty brand Neutrogena have broken their silence about their treatment of their former ambassador Hayden Panettiere following her death.
While promoting her memoir earlier this year, the Heroes actress claimed that Neutrogena dropped her as their brand ambassador after 10 years in 2015 because she spoke about her postpartum depression battle on a U.S. talk show.
The allegations resurfaced this week after Panettiere died on Sunday, prompting backlash against the company, which saw its stock spiral amid a fan boycott.
Addressing the uproar on social media on Thursday, reps for Neutrogena acknowledged that they made her feel "unsupported" while she was struggling.
"For more than a decade, Hayden was a valued member of our Neutrogena community," they wrote. "We are proud to have partnered with her and understand that we made her feel unsupported during a very difficult time. This is not what Neutrogena stands for or who we want to be."
They praised Panettiere's "courage" in speaking out about a taboo subject and vowed to make a "significant investment to a long-standing community health partner" to support women's health causes, including postpartum depression.

NASHVILLE - "It's Sure Gonna Hurt" - After nearly two decades, Rayna and Deacon face the facts of their storied and often tempestuous relationship. Scarlett makes a startling self-discovery in between tour dates while Gunnar performs with one of his idols, rock-music legend Sir Elton John, who guest stars as himself. Luke stops by "The View" to trumpet a worthy cause-before a family emergency pulls his focus. Elsewhere, Juliette struggles to make a connection, and Layla launches her album at The Bluebird. Whoopi Goldberg, Joy Behar, Raven Symon and Paula Faris guest star as themselves on "Nashville," WEDNESDAY, MAY 18 (10:00-11:00 p.m. EDT), on the Disney General Entertainment Content via Getty Images Television Network.

Hayden Panettiere, known to many of us as the cheerleader who couldn't be broken on Heroes and the country western star who came apart on Nashville, died this week in her South Carolina home at the age of 36. She left behind an eleven-year-old daughter called Kaya. Her cause of death is not yet known.
The public response to her death has followed a familiar refrain: the tragic trajectory of a child star whose bright light cast longer shadows. But Panettiere's story is also one of a young woman who fought hard to reclaim her narrative, and was willing to drag the darkest parts of it into the light, even when doing so made people uncomfortable.
Her 2026 memoir, This Is Me: A Reckoning, detailed a near-death labor and postpartum psychological spiral, an opioid and alcohol addiction that predated her daughter's birth by more than a decade, and the very difficult decision to give her daughter's father, former heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko, full custody of their daughter in 2018. It was a story that gave a voice to a subject and a stigma that so many women have been unable to face openly for fear of shame, judgment and retribution. And perhaps that makes her sudden death all the more tragic, and opens up an important question that deserves to be confronted: what, exactly, do we mean when we say "good mother"?

The Drug Enforcement Administration has joined the investigation into the death of actress Hayden Panettiere, the New York Times and ABC News reported, citing sources familiar with the matter.
CNN has reached out to the DEA and Greenville Police, which is leading the investigation, and representatives for Panettiere.
Panettiere, a onetime child star who soared to fame while navigating addiction and postpartum depression in her adult life, died Sunday at an apartment in Greenville, South Carolina.
The 36-year-old had addressed her struggles in a memoir and spoke publicly about losing her brother. Months ago, she had described feeling ready to start over, and was making a comeback, with her latest film released in January.
Earlier this week, police released a report that said Panettiere's boyfriend and his brother called 911 to say the actress was unresponsive at the apartment complex where medics would later declare her dead.

Neutrogena is facing a boycott and swarms of social media backlash over a story from Hayden Panettiere that has resurfaced after her sudden death at 36.
The Heroes star, who was the face of the popular skincare brand for about 10 years, said in her 2026 memoir This Is Me: A Reckoning that Neutrogena severed ties with her after she spoke publicly about receiving mental health treatment for postpartum depression following the birth of her daughter, Kaya, in 2014.
Panettiere alleged that her contract with the company was canceled because she revealed her PPD diagnosis on Live! with Kelly and Michael in 2015, explaining in her memoir: "Neutrogena canceled my long-standing contract, and it was yet another blow in a year that had given almost nothing else."
Upon the release of the memoir in May, the comments sparked online criticism of Neutrogena, but the brand is now facing renewed backlash after Panettiere died Sunday in Greenville, South Carolina.
One Reddit post, which has more than 5,000 upvotes, proposed a boycott against the company in honor of Panettiere. The comments echoed that attitude, with users vowing to never buy products from the company again.

Hayden Panettiere wasn't afraid to get candid about her ups and downs, and what they cost her, before her untimely death.
On August 16, 2026, the Bring It On: All or Nothing actress was found unresponsive at an apartment complex in Greenville, South Carolina, having suffered from an apparent overdose and cardiac arrest, days away from her 37th birthday.
In the months before her passing, she released her memoir, This Is Me: A Reckoning, in which she opened up about her battle with addiction as well as postpartum depression, and her relationship with her daughter.
