‘This Mama Needs a Day Off’: Tia Mowry Tags Husband Cory Hardrict In to Watch the Kids In New Instagram Video

Leave it to Tia Mowry to upload reels regarding fashion, food and comedy. Her latest Instagram reel showed her in need of a day off while “tapping in” husband Cory Hardrict. Tia’s presentation of needing a break had fans cracking up. 

Wearing a black face mask over her eyes, holding a blue mug in her left hand and her cellphone on her right ear, Tia lip-synced an already recorded message that said, “I can’t come into work today.. I can’t see.. I can’t see myself working today bye!” Tia wrote, “Tapping you in @coryhardict This mama needs a day off” for her caption.

Cory has yet to respond to the 24,000-liked video, but over 700 fans did; the public was so amused by Tia’s video they sent numerous laughing emojis in her comments section. Some mothers even related a little too well to the video and spoke about their “mama needs a day off” experience. 

“This was me the other day in real time lmbo, I was like I’m off.”

“This was exactly me this morning.”

“It’s the mask over your eyes for me [laughing emojis]”

“Shoot, I can’t see either!”

Tia always includes husband Cory in her reel bits. One of the most recent bits she uploaded was a video of the two traveling in Europe with their children. Tia sweetly captioned her reel, “Mom and Dad take on Europe! I love traveling the world with you,” as “Yebba’s Heartbreak” by Drake played over the compiled video. 

In another one of Tia’s reels, she created a montage of special moments between her and Cory. The 44-year-old actress captioned this post, “You and me since day one.” and chose summer hit “Wait For U” by Future featuring Tems and Drake as her specified song choice. 

If there’s one thing Tia Mowry is going to do, it’s involve Cory Hardrict in reel videos, whether they are sweet or comical. 

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.
