Hilary Duff and Haylie Duff were once a beloved sister duo among fans. In the 2000s, they released hits like «Our Lips Are Sealed» and starred together in the movie «Material Girls», - which brought them immense popularity. However, their relationship began to deteriorate over time, and now Hilary openly discusses her estrangement from Haylie.

In an interview on CBS Mornings on February 20, 2026, while promoting her album «luck … or something», - Hilary noted that her song «We Don’t Talk» is about her breakup with Haylie.

«It's definitely about my sister and, without a doubt, the loneliest part of my existence», - Hilary said, feeling emotional. «It's the absence of my sister in my life right now, and I struggled with whether to include it on the album».

What exactly caused the rift between Hilary and Haylie? Below, Hollywood Life explains everything we know about the sisters' breakup.

Hilary is now 38 years old; she was born on September 28, 1987. Haylie is 41; she was born on February 19, 1985.

Yes, Hilary confirmed that «We Don’t Talk» pertains to her complicated relationship with Haylie. The lyrics speak of a person with whom Hilary shared «one home, one blood».

«I'm not sure when it happened / I don’t even know what it was about», - Hilary sings in one of the verses. «If I had done something differently / Would you feel something differently? / Would you at least let me listen to you?»

It seems that even Hilary doesn’t know what caused the rift with Haylie. As her song «We Don’t Talk» emphasizes, «I'm not sure when it happened».

During the CBS Mornings interview in February 2026, Hilary, the star of «How I Met Your Mother», - was asked if she would talk about her new song with Haylie.

«I don’t know how she will react to it», - Hilary admitted. «But it’s really a personal part of my life that can’t remain personal, so I can just share how it feels to me as an experience. … That’s all I’m trying to do. I’m not trying to say anything bad. It’s just my experience, and that’s all I feel I can share».

Hilary added that she can «exist as a person on her own and do what she wants».

«I hope that for anyone in a similar situation, you should do what you want and what brings you joy», - she concluded. «It took me a long time to get to this point and to live that way, not caring about what will be said around me, and just being myself»
