Tia Mowry has revealed that her bond with her twin sister Tamera Mowry is not as close as it once was.
In a new sneak peek of her upcoming reality series My Next Act, the 46-year-old actress opened up about her post-divorce struggle after leaving ex-husband Cory Hardrict.
After leaving her six-year-old daughter Cairo to spend time with her father, she broke down in tears.
“Being alone has been the hardest part of my divorce. It’s times like this where I feel and wish that my sister and I were still close and I could pick up the phone and call her,” she shared in a confessional interview, adding, “But that’s not our current situation.”
The star, who rose to fame in the late ’90s alongside Tamera in her sitcom Sister Sister, did not explain what caused the rift between her and her identical sister.

Elsewhere on her show, which premieres Oct. 4 on We TV, Tia opened up about her first red carpet encounter with her ex Cory following their divorce.
While attending the Essence Black Women In Hollywood Awards event last March, the two came face to face in an awkward manner.
Images from the scene show the former spouses briefly hesitating, as they did not know whether to hug or hold hands.
Tia, who in addition to Cairo also shares 13-year-old son Cree with her ex, called the ordeal “exhausting.”
“It got blown out of proportion and we actually went viral,” she said of the brief meeting.
“People want to know what happened and why it happened, so much so that they’re trying to create narratives and stories in their own heads and then post them,” she said of fan speculation.
The mother of two said talk of her divorce made her “mentally ill.”
After filing for divorce in October 2022, the new show will see Mowry return to the dating world.
Tia and Tamera rose to fame in the late 90s on their sitcom Sister Sister.

Tia filed for divorce from actor Cory in October 2022; in March 2023, Hardrict shared a photo of them amicably reuniting with their children in tow.
Meanwhile, Tia’s sister Tamera is happily married to husband Adam Housley, 53, a journalist and winemaker from Napa, California.
The two tied the knot in 2011 and share a son, Aden, 11, and a daughter, Ariah, nine.
To commemorate her children’s first day of school earlier this month, the proud mother posted a photo of them on Instagram.
In a message to her nearly 12 million followers, Tamera wrote: “First day of school vibes! Aden is going into 6th grade and Ariah is starting 4th grade. Where does the time go? I’m so full of joy but wow they are growing up so fast. Who else gets this excited this time of year?”
