Tia and Tamera Mowry Glow on the Cover of Essence Mag

Twins Tamera Mowry-Housley and Tia Mowry-Hardict, 34, are absolutely gorgeous on the April cover of Essence magazine. Embracing her sassy short hairstyle, Tia joins her sister wearing complimenting bright orange sheath dresses. Accompanying the interview are beautiful photos of the sisters holding their sons. Mowry-Housley gave birth to her first baby boy Aden 3-months ago with husband Adam Housley while Mowry-Hardrict welcomed her son Cree Taylor with husband Cory nearly two years ago.

Naturally the conversation turned to motherhood, check out some excerpts below:

Tamera on motherhood: I’ve always wanted to be a mother. I’m a nurturer, a girly girl. I know my priorities: God, family and work … When those things are in check, the work will flow.

Tia On Being A Mother: I feel sexier now, as a mother, than I ever have in my life. I’m more in tune with my body. I don’t take any crap anymore either.

Surely that new found freedom will allow the sisters to succeed in the next phase of their intertwined lives. According to Essence,

“Life is sweet for twins for Tia & Tamera Mowry. As successful, married new moms, the reality TV stars are adding a new hyphenate to their resumes: entrepreneur. The two recently launched a product line for mothers and babies called Mama Need.”

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

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 in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones 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.
