Tia Mowry Becomes Emotional While Reflecting On ‘Whirlwind Journey’ Recovering From Cory Hardrict Divorce

TV star Tia Mowry recently shared a heartfelt message about the difficulties of healing through a divorce.

The actress encouraged anyone working through the end of a marriage to ride the wave of emotions as they come, leaving a hopeful assurance that things will slowly get better.

Tia Mowry shared the message in a video posted to her Instagram yesterday (Wednesday, April 3rd), alongside a montage video of herself post-divorce. Speaking on her split from ex-husband Cory Hardrict, 44, the 45-year-old stated:

“Recovering from a divorce feels like a whirlwind journey. I found that through the process, divorce isn’t a place where we arrive, it’s entering a new chapter of life with many nuances and no one-size-fits-all all handbook. One moment you’re relieved, feeling like you’ve conquered something significant, and then suddenly waves of emotions hit you all over again.”

She continued:

“It’s a side of divorce that isn’t often discussed, especially when there’s kids involved. You strive to be a role model, teaching them resilience and self-care. You try different things to soothe and release emotional build-up: exercise, journaling your thoughts, meditation, and seeking therapy to cope with the breakup of the dreams you had for the future. It may sound cliche, but time truly does have a way of soothing pain.”

Mowry appeared to become more emotional as she went on, admitting that right now she’s struggling with acceptance, adding

“Someday, I believe I’ll be able to look back on this time with nothing but warmth and gratitude for the beautiful children brought into my life and the stronger version of myself that emerged from the experience.”

As you may remember, Mowry filed to divorce Hardrict in 2022 after 14 years of marriage. The two share two children, a 12-year-old son Cree, and a 5-year-old daughter Cairo. Neither of the actors has offered much detail about what led to the split. However, Mowry has been very vocal about her hopes of finding love again and her fears of dating again after so long.

Her most recent emotional rollercoaster is likely not attributed to just one thing, however, she did recently have an interaction with her ex that may have been a catalyst. As we reported, Mowry shared a tense moment with Hardrict during a recent red carpet-appearance. The exes exchanged a hug which appeared to be a little uncomfortable for the both of them.

Despite her complex feelings, however, the Family Reunion star ended her video with a positive message for others facing a similar experience, stating:

“For anyone who is going through this, I would love to hear your experience. Share your story, because there’s power in dialogue. As women, we take our power back by sharing our stories and bringing any deep shame we hold from this experience into the light…I love you guys.”
