How do you deal with people trying to butting into your group of friends?

We met some people that wanted to be friends with us, and hang out with us..myself and my husband. When they started hanging out with us though, they wanted to start talking to all of our friends too...like they were supposed to be able to fit into our group immediately. Well there was some drama, and some bad things were said, and now they think we are trying to get everyone to dislike them, but they are really the ones who are making people dislike them because they are trying to put us down to every one of our friends. It's like they're wanting to take over our spot in our group of friends. It's creepy. I like her husband fine, but she is really pushy and loud and rude, and my husband can't stand her. We all feel that he is getting the short end of the stick in his marriage and although we don't want them to break up, we also don't want them spreading stuff around and trying to manipulate the truth to seem like we are the ones saying bad stuff. How do we make it stop?

Update:

ok i'm sorry that it makes it sound like we are being snobs...basically her husband tells me about her being mean to him, so they are putting their business in our laps. It's really just started so I wanted to see if I could get some other opinions of people who maybe have had the same experiences. It's not worth it to try to explain any further.

    Plain old 'ignore them'. Her husband being married to her is not ur business.

    Ignoring them might do u good. Avoid.

    This is extremely petty and it does not sound like you have enough to do, this whole scenario sounds like a scene from the movie "Mean Girls". If you really do not want to be bothered with someone then do the adult thing and just stop talking to them and fyi stay the hell up out of their business. It is not your place or business to pass your opinions off into someone else's marriage. Whether her husband is getting the short end of the stick or not is his business. He must like it if he is still married and at the end of the day they are married to one another. Okay so I digressed. If they ask why you wish to continue the "friendship" then be honest and straight forward and then let it go. It is as simple as that. It also sounds like your friends are just a simple minded because they are continuing to perpetuate the drama by talking to people they supposedly do not like and the drama goes on and on.

    This woman has deeper subjects than in basic terms being an stressful buddy. she's needless to say in dire choose of interest, and lacks shallowness. in case you opt to handle it, you are going to might desire to ball up and be an exceedingly sturdy buddy, and start up digging into how she's rather feeling. that is advisable to throw up on the seen this, yet one-on-one time along with her might get you someplace. if shes distinctive with you one-on-one than including your finished team of acquaintances, then you rather could carry that up. no longer in an average way nonetheless... say something like "wow i think such as you're lots greater right down to earth than i presumed"... see what her reaction is... if she get's protective, then meaning she is familiar with of ways she acts in the team placing, and you may clarify to her the way it is not assisting her become greater universal and that that is directing a unfavourable interest - and if she asks what each and every physique is asserting approximately her , do no longer call NAMES. you will purely start up situation. if, once you're saying what I reported, and he or she seems shocked (occasion answer: wow, rather? i did no longer understand i became into that particular) you may clarify to her the multiple issues she does in yet in any different case in a team placing, and probably she would be able to be greater unsleeping of it next time. rome wasn't geared up in an afternoon, so which you're buddy could no longer exchange in one day. that is going to take time. and while you're making an attempt and he or she sees which you would be assisting her somewhat of injuring her, stressful as she is. and if she gets all pissed off, and prevents chatting with you... nicely, you in basic terms dealt with you're situation.
