Sisters Tia & Tamera Juggle Marriage And Motherhood In New Show

Twins Tia Mowry Hardrict and Tamera Mowry-Housley continue their televised, sisterly bond by embarking on a new docu-series titled Tia & Tamera.   The reality show is slated to air tonight at 9pm on the Style Network.

During the show’s first season, the sisters are each undergoing major life changes as Tia is pregnant with her first child and Tamera is preparing for her wedding.   Consequently, the combined stress of the two events continually tests the strength of Tia and Tamera’s sisterly bond.

Tia has since given birth to her first son, Cree Taylor, on June 28.   Although he was born five days ahead of schedule, Tia admits his early arrival was something of a relief.

“I was excited to get this baby out of me” she explained when recently interviewed by BET.

Tia went on to express how she was somewhat ill prepared for the sudden wave of emotions first time motherhood often brings.

“It’s a lot more emotional that I expected.   I knew it would be emotional, but I didn’t know it would be this emotional. People always say you never know love until you have your own child and all of that is true.”

Luckily Tia’s husband Cory Hardrict is also up for the challenge, as Tia explained how he was eager to assist whenever he could.

“He’s changing diapers, he’s feeding, bathing, all of it.   At night I pump bottles so he can do feeding.”

On top of completing a docu-series, and having her first child, Tia Mowry Hardrict is also returning to the set of The Game in September to begin taping for its new season.

Although Tia is understandably exhausted, she reportedly couldn’t be happier at the timing of her new addition; and when asked if she hopes her sister will soon share in a twin motherhood experience, she simply stated;

“At her wedding, I said in my speech that she needed to get on it–now!”

Independent journalism still matters.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
