Cuteness Overload’: Tia Mowry-Hardrict’s Daughter Is The Sweetest Little Helper

Tia Mowry-Hardrict‘s daughter Cairo may only be two years old, but she’s already starting to learn chores and help her mommy around the house.

The “Family Reunion” star shared a video of her “laundry routine” with baby Cairo, which pretty much consists of Tia doing the actual laundry, while Cairo tags along inside the hamper saying “Cheese!” for the camera. “I mean… our #laundry #routine. She gets to help by riding in the #basket. ๐Ÿ’• #cairo#saycheese,” Tia captioned her video that received over 1 million views.

Fans couldn’t get over how cute little Cairo was while helping her mom and left over 1,300 comments letting Tia know.

“Oh my goodness ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜,” wrote a follower.

“Aawweee sugar dumpling in the basket ๐Ÿงบ ๐Ÿ’œ๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ’œ๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ’œ๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ’œ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒธcutie,” gushed a second.

“Awww Cuteness overload๐Ÿ‘‘โค๏ธ,” a third remarked.

“Cairo is always a mood ๐Ÿคฃ,” stated a fourth.

“๐Ÿฅบ my heart just jumped,” said a fifth.

Like most parents, Mowry-Hardrict has been doing her best to maintain a sense of normalcy and sanity throughout the shelter-in-place orders, but admits these times have been trying her as well. “I locked myself in the bathroom with a glass of wine,โ€ she told Us Weekly. โ€œThereโ€™s a picture of me on Instagram with a glass of wine. I was hiding from my children and my husband. So there have been many of those moments.โ€

She continued, โ€œLetโ€™s just say I had to order another box of wine. I do about half a bottle every other day, so that should tell you. But I have slowed down. I have said, โ€˜You know what? Only on the weekends, because that acid reflux.โ€™ But when [we] first started this quarantine, I was like, โ€˜Oh, my God, Tia.’ โ€

Tia Mowry-Hardrict and Cory Hardrict, who tied the knot in 2008, are parents to Cairo and an eight-year-old son, Cree Hardrict.

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual โ€” 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.
