Tia and Tamera Mowry were the child stars of the ABC sitcom Sister, Sister in the 90s. They began the show at 14 years old and were 18 when it ended. Sister, Sister was the story of identical twins separated at birth and reunited as teenagers. The girls and their one parent each, move in together, so that they won't be separated again. The show was a hit on ABC's TGIF line-up and the young girls became instantly famous. Their younger brother, Tahj Mowry also got the acting bug and played Michelle's friend, Teddy, on Full House.
The twins have continued acting as adults, and have remained very close. They are both moms now and cherish their family time together. "Family over everything 🤍 There's nothing better than getting together with my sister @tameramowrytwo and watching our kids play together," Tia recently wrote on Instagram.
Tia Mowry recently announced that she and husband, Cory Hardrict, are divorcing. Although they say it is amicable, her life will surely change a bit.

Mom is very proud of son Cree and wrote on his 11th birthday, "Munchkin, you are so funny, full of life, and love." In March 2022, the proud mother announced that Cree was accepted to his "dream school" and how happy she was for him.
Tia refers to daughter Cairo as her "mini me", and posted for her daughter's fourth birthday, "You bring so much love to all of us. Your humor is one of a kind, your laugh is contagious, and that side eye… girlllllll, it's something else. Today (and everyday), we celebrate you baby girl!"
