Tia Mowry reveals she will be spending the holidays with her estranged husband Cory Hardrict and their kids after filing for divorce a few months ago. Hear what she said inside…
Luckily for the kids, the Hardricts will be spending the holidays together.
Months after filing for divorce, actress Tia Mowry and her kids will be spending Christmas with her estranged husband, Cory Hardrict.
“Yes, we are going to be spending the holidays with him, which we’re really excited about,” the “Sister, Sister” alum told TMZ photogs when she was asked about her holiday plans. “With the whole family.”
Back in October, the 44-year-old mom dropped a bombshell announcement, revealing she was parting ways with her actor husband after 14 years of marriage and over two decades of being together. It felt like the uncoupling came out of nowhere, as the couple often posted about one another on social media, confessing their love for one another. She cited “irreconcilable differences.”
When asked if she believes more families should put aside their differences to spend the holidays together, Mowry replied, “I mean, family is family no matter what happens, and that’s what’s important to me. We will always be family.”

Good for them.
Since the divorce announcement, the “The Game” star alum has filled her social media timeline with self-love videos and motivational quotes.
Last month, the mom-of-two shared that she could pinpoint the exact moment she knew her marriage was over. She said she had an “aha moment” after the deaths of her grandmother and her sister’s niece-in-law, Alaina Housley, who was one of at least 12 victims who died in the shooting at Borderline Bar & Grill in Thousand Oaks, California, in November 2018.
“There was this sadness,” Tia continued. “I had just lost my grandmother. We lost Alaina Housley – both of them at the same time. There was just an aha moment in me where I said, ‘You know what, you need to tap in and see what’s really going on with your happiness. Life is short. Let’s go. Let’s start working on you and focusing on what really, really matters here…which is, at the end of the day, your peace, your love, and your happiness.'”
Despite the end of her marriage, Tia, who shared that she has been in therapy, said she still considers her marriage a “success.”
“My marriage was a success. I look at it as, like, a curriculum,” the “Family Reunion” star explained. “You’re learning, you’re growing, you’re evolving, you’re creating, and I was able to create with Cory some beautiful, amazing children.
”I feel like when people look at marriage that success equals longevity, but, no, at the end of the day it’s, ‘Are they happy? Are they thriving? Are they growing?’ And I feel like that’s what’s most important.”
In the divorce documents, the actress/producer didn’t specify a date of separation from the “All American: Homecoming” star. However, she asked a judge for joint physical and legal custody of their two children. She’s also requested the judge terminate the court’s ability to give spousal support to either party, noting they had a prenup.
In April 2008, Tia and Cory tied the knot in Santa Barbara, California. In 2011, the couple became parents for the first time, welcoming their son, Cree Taylor Hardrict, who is now 11, into the world. They became a family of four after they welcomed their second child, daughter Cairo Tiahna Hardrict, in 2018.
We’re glad they’ll be all together this holiday season. The kids will love it.
