Tia Mowry shocked us all when she announced that she and Cory Hardrict are divorcing after 17 years of marriage. Since this announcement, she’s been transparent about how it has been affecting her. She recently opened up about about how difficult it was to make the the decision to file for divorce.
“It was not easy. I usually tell people in my close circle, ‘This is not for the weak. ‘It’s very hard’,” she told Us Weekly. “I feel like when you continue to work on you and work on yourself and work on loving yourself and valuing yourself and having self-worth, the decision becomes easier. Once you are in tune with yourself, it makes it easier to make that decision. But it doesn’t mean that it’s not hard. It was very difficult because you have to think about so many things.”

She added that they will always be in each other’s lives and that there is no bad blood.
