The strong Mowry family resemblance jumped out at fans in a recent photo that Tia Mowry shared that shows her and her children enjoying a sweet moment with her father.
The actress, her son, Cree, 9, and daughter Cairo, 2, were all smiles when they snuggled up for an outdoors pic with family patriarch, Timothy Mowry, 64. The family looked comfy and content in their sweats while spending a little quality time together.
“So #happy that we got to see #grandpa! #family #love,” she captioned her image, which gained more than 191,000 likes.
After seeing Tia, her offspring, and her dad side by side, fans couldn’t get over just how much the crew favors one another.
“Everyone has the same face 😍”
“Cree and Grandpa look alike and its so cute😍”
“He spit y’all OUT❤️”
“Grandpa has some strong genes 🧬. 😍”
“Them genes strong 💪🏾”
Tia’s father and mother Darlene Mowry have four children together: twins Tia and Tamera, 42, and sons Tahj, 34, and Tavior, 27.
Mowry’s parents, who met in high school and eventually joined the military together, laid a strong familial foundation for Tia and her three siblings. Mowry has shared how her mother imparted an important lesson about the importance of standing up for herself and knowing her value when she and her twin sister, Tamera, starred in the hit series “Sister, Sister.”
When the twins were “18 or 19,” according to Tia, their mother, Darlene Mowry, did some research and found out that they weren’t being paid as much as others in the business who put in equal amounts of time and work. Their mom brought the issue to the table and questioned why the girls appeared to be unfairly paid. They reportedly became two of the “highest-paid actresses on a pre-teen family show.”
“She believed in us. And by her believing in us, we saw that strength and we believed in ourselves,” the “Family Reunion” actress told Essence. “And my sister and I became, at one point, one of the highest-paid actresses on a pre-teen family show and it started with my mom and us knowing our worth and, again, vocalizing what we believe is right.”
