Tia Mowry is doing great amid her divorce from Cory Hardrict. On Oct. 17, the 44-year-old actor attended Elle’s Women in Hollywood gala in Los Angeles, where she gave Entertainment Tonight an update on how she’s doing. “I’m doing fantastic. I am doing great. I feel very blessed, I feel very honored to be here,” she said. “I am all about women empowerment, and supporting women.”
Addressing her recent divorce filing, Mowry added, “I have to be honest with you, I am so overwhelmed by the love and support I’ve received. I’m so grateful of the community and the fans that I have. I’m all about inspiring and encouraging, and the DMs that I’ve gotten from so many women who are going through the same thing . . . it has just been [amazing]. I feel so blessed.”
On Nov. 16, Mowry shared another update on her divorce during an appearance on “Today With Hoda & Jenna,” revealing the moment she realized she needed to part ways with Hardrict. “I knew when I really started to focus on my happiness,” Mowry said. “I feel like women, we tend to focus on everybody else’s happiness . . . but at the end of the day, it’s about self-love. And when you start to really work on yourself, love yourself, know your value, know your worth, then, all of a sudden, there’s this awakening.”
Mowry added that therapy, the death of her grandmother, and Alaina Housley — her sister’s, Tamera Mowry-Housley, niece who was killed in a 2018 mass shooting in Thousand Oaks, CA — also contributed to her “aha” moment to start focusing on her “peace, joy, and happiness.” “It’s not easy,” she continued. “It’s a hard journey but, at the end of the day, I feel like it is so, so worth it.”
The “Family Reunion” star concluded her revelation by calling her marriage a “success,” despite it coming to an end. “I look at it as a curriculum . . . you’re learning, you’re growing, you’re evolving, you’re creating, and I was able to create with Cory some beautiful, amazing children,” she shared. “And at the end of that curriculum, there’s a graduation, there’s a celebration. So that’s basically how I’m looking at it now.”
