‘Cory Facial Expressions Take Me Out Every Time’: Tia Mowry’s Vacation Video Goes Left After Fans Zoom In on Cory Hardrict’s Reactions

Europe was not ready for the Mowry-Hardrict family to take over the streets of France for Tia Mowry‘s birthday. The TV personality celebrated her 44th birthday earlier this month with a family vacation including her husband Cory Hardrict, their son, Cree, 11, and daughter, Cairo, 4.

On Tuesday, July 14, Mowry shared another viral Instagram reel from their family vacation featuring clips with their daughter, Cairo, and son, Cree. “Mom & dad take on Europe! I love traveling the world with you, @coryhardrict,” she wrote in the caption.

The majority of the video features the married actors posing for pictures in matching pink outfits, taking a walk through a park, walking through town with the kids and lounging on a boat. There’s also an adorable clip of Cory giving Cairo a kiss on the cheek.

Fans on Instagram enjoyed getting a glimpse of their vacation life but many were in tears after zooming in on Hardrict’s facial reactions.

“Cory’s facials be having me rolling,” said one fan. “Love seeing the fam traveling.” Another fan agreed, “Cory facial expressions take me out every time.” Another commentator who noticed Cory’s confused look into the camera said, “Cory made a face just like Cairo at the end.”

One fan joked that Hardrict was getting better at entertaining his wife’s shenanigans by participating in her Instagram reels. “He’s getting better at the reels,” said one person, while another wrote, “Cory be so chilled and you are so extra and he just let u be as extra as you want and I adore it.”

Many noted how much they admire the Mowry-Hardrict’s, calling them “a beautiful family.” A few hinted that they should be the next family on reality television.

One fan said, “My social media auntie and uncle out there living their best life. Love to see it!” Another individual wrote, “Goshhh!!!! I just love y’all… #couplegoals #blacklove.” A third social media user said, “We need a reality show.”

Others continued gushing over the young couple sharing dozens of heart emojis, including one observer who complimented the “Seventeen Again” star and her honey blonde knotless braids. “How y’all aging backwards?!” wrote one person. Another said, “Braids take off about 15 years. That’s amazing.” A third individual said, “Yall never age.”

Still independent.

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.
