Hilary Duff has arrived at London’s Heathrow Airport to prepare for her first live concert in ten years.
The 38-year-old singer and actress will perform a sold-out show at the O2 Shepherd's Bush Empire on Sunday, January 18, 2026.
This performance marks the start of a brief tour that includes stops in Toronto, New York City, and Los Angeles.
Hilary is currently promoting her upcoming sixth studio album, titled luck… or something, which she will release in February.
Her return to music comes at a time of high personal drama within her social circle.
Fellow former Disney star Ashley Tisdale recently wrote an article for The Cut titled "Breaking Up With My Toxic Mom Group."
While Ashley did not name names, she described feeling "frozen out" and "lost" within a high-profile group of mothers that Hilary originally created.
Fans noticed that Ashley recently unfollowed both Hilary and Mandy Moore on Instagram, which sparked widespread speculation that she directed the "toxic" label at them.
Matthew Koma, Hilary's husband, did not stay silent regarding the accusations.
He took to social media to mock the situation, sharing a photoshopped image and a fake headline calling Ashley "self-obsessed" and "tone-deaf."
Matthew suggested that the group shifted focus away from Ashley simply because they were busy raising their actual toddlers.
The group of friends has been known to go on vacations and attend baby classes together for years, making the public fallout a significant shock to many fans.
Despite the controversy, Hilary appears focused on her career comeback.
In addition to her new album and concert dates, she is preparing for a Las Vegas residency and filming a docuseries about her musical journey.
Her new single, "Mature," has already gained attention, with some listeners interpreting the lyrics as a critique of her past experiences and famous former acquaintances.
As she prepares for her London show, Hilary seems determined to let her music speak for itself while her family and friends navigate the social media storm.
