Tia Mowry has revealed that she and her twin sister Tamera Mowry’s bond is not as tight as it once was.
In a new teaser for her forthcoming reality television series My Next Act, the 46-year-old actress discussed her post-divorce struggle after leaving ex-husband Cory Hardrict.
After dropping her six-year-old daughter Cairo off to spend time with her dad, she broke down in tears.
‘Being alone has been the most challenging part of my divorce. It’s times like this when I feel and wish that my sister and I were still close and I could pick up the phone and call her,’ she shared in an interview confessional, adding, ‘But that’s just not where we are right now.’
The star, who rose to fame in the late 90s alongside Tamera on their sitcom Sister Sister, did not explain what has driven a wedge between her and her identical sibling.

Elsewhere in the snippet for her show, which premieres October 4 on We TV, Tia talked about her and ex Cory’s first red carpet run-in after their divorce.
While attending the Essence Black Women In Hollywood Awards event this past March, the two awkwardly came face-to-face.
Footage from the scene shows the former spouses briefly hesitate as they didn’t know whether to hug or shake hands.
Tia, who in addition to Cairo also shares 13-year-old son Cree with her ex, called the ordeal ‘exhausting.’
‘It was blown out of proportion and we actually went viral,’ she said about the brief reunion.
‘People are wanting to know what happened and why it happened so much that they are trying to create narratives and stories in their own head and then putting it out there,’ she said about fans’ speculation.
The mother-of-two said the chatter around her divorce made her ‘mentally ill.’
Following her October 2022 divorce filing, the new show will see Mowry get back in the dating pool.

Meanwhile, Tia’s sister Tamera has been happily married to husband Adam Housley, 53, a journalist and winemaker from Napa, California.
The two tied the knot in 2011 and they share son Aden, 11, and daughter Ariah, nine.
To mark her children’s first day of school earlier this month, the proud mom posted a photo of them on Instagram.
In a caption to her nearly 12 million followers, Tamera wrote: ‘First day of school vibes! ✨ Aden is off to 6th grade and Ariah is starting 4th grade—where does the time go? I’m so full of joy, but wow, they’re growing up so fast. Who else gets all the feels this time of year?’
