Tia and Tamera reality show end last seasonFormer child stars Tia and Tamera Mowry are leaving the world of reality TV behind them and are moving on to focus on their careers in the talk show and scripted series industries.

After kicking off their reality show, “Tia and Tamera” back in 2011, the twin actresses are happy to bid the show farewell.

“Tia and Tamera will not have a season 4,” Tamera tweeted on Tuesday. “Thank you for always supporting us throughout the years. Tia n I decided it was time 2 live r family lives behind the cameras.”

After three successful seasons in reality TV, the sisters are building their empires and will still remain in the spotlight.

Tamera Mowry-Housley will be focusing on her role as a cohost on the daytime talk show “The Real,” which debuted last summer.

Tamera is joined by R&B star Tamar Braxton, comedian Loni Love, Jeannie Mai from “How Do I Look?” and actress Adrienne Bailon on “The Real,” which will launch nationwide on 18 Fox stations in the fall.

“‘The Real’ brought viewers a unique combination of elements that were missed from daytime, a real, multicultural conversation about issues that women of all ages are talking about,” president of Warner Bros. Domestic Distribution, Ken Warner, said of  the show.

Tia and Tamera leave Reality show Tamera’s sister Tia, on the other hand, is getting back into the acting business with NickMoms’ new show “Instant Mom.”

The series will focus on the life of a former party girl, played by Tia, turned mom as she deals with the challenges of step-motherhood.

Michael Boatman will take on the role of Tia’s husband who is already the father of three children.

The series will follow Tia’s character, Stephanie, as she “traverses the fine line between being a friend and being a responsible parent” according to the NickMom website.

It’s very likely that the famous twins will be missed on the Style Network as their reality show held great ratings for all three seasons.

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.
