Tia Mowry is radiating a newfound sense of joy and peace as she steps into a fresh chapter of her personal life, and she’s not afraid to speak about it.
Three years after her high-profile split, the actress is crediting the power of manifestation for the romantic happiness she is currently experiencing.
Tia got married to Cory Hardrict in 2008. However, the two finalized their divorce in 2023.
Tia Mowry Speaks On Manifesting Joy After Solitude
While attending a gala at the Beverly Hills Hotel on March 18, 2026, Tia revealed that her current relationship is the result of intentional manifestation. The 47-year-old star shared that she spent a significant amount of time in solitude following her split from Hardrict.
This period allowed her to truly understand her own needs and desires, leading her to “speak into existence” the type of love she wanted. Tia explained that she utilized visualization and neuroscience-based positivity to shift her mindset away from the negative aspects of dating.
“I will say that I’ve been in a place of solitude for a very long time,” the TV star said. “And there, I was really able to learn who I am, what it was that I wanted, and what it was that I needed. And I manifested this. I really did,” she told PEOPLE Magazine.
Although she confirmed she is “very happy,” she chose to keep her partner’s identity private to protect their budding relationship. Additionally, despite her new romance, the “Family Reunion” star remains focused on her primary responsibilities as a mother to her two children, Cree and Cairo.
A major part of Tia’s healing process involved the support of her close-knit “tribe,” including her dear friend Gabrielle Union. She praised Union for being a non-judgmental mentor who understood exactly what she needed during her transition out of marriage.
Tia Mowry Is ‘In Love’ With Her New Partner
This is not the first time Tia has gushed about her newfound love interest. The Blast previously reported that the 47-year-old actress confirmed that she has taken a massive leap forward in her personal life.
During a candid interview, she simply said, “I’m in love.”
This romantic update is a far cry from where she stood just a year ago, when she openly navigated the complexities of being a single mother. In the past, the actress used her platform to speak candidly about the emotional weight and occasional shame of seeing her family structure shift away from the traditional norm.
She admitted that it was difficult to break down those societal expectations while she held down her household and raised her two children, Cree and Cairo.
The Actress Had To Work On Her Boundaries Following Her Divorce
In addition to being candid about her newfound love interest, Tia also opened up about making certain changes in her private life. According to The Blast, after her divorce from Hardrict was finalized in April 2023, the 47-year-old actress developed a much stricter set of boundaries regarding what she chooses to disclose to the public.
She now prioritizes her own internal security over the “noise” of outside opinions, only speaking on topics that she feels truly firm and settled in.
“I’ll create a boundary until I’m ready to. So yeah, it’s all about what I feel secure about, and also just [what I’m] passionate about, that I’m open to talk about,” she said.
The Actress Addressed The Backlash She Received For Referring To Herself As A Single Mom
Tia didn’t just work on her boundaries, but she also boldly addressed the backlash she received for referring to herself as a “single mom.”
Through a detailed Instagram post, the movie producer explained that while she is co-parenting with her ex-husband, her day-to-day reality within her own home is that of a single parent, per The Blast.
Tia emphasized that family structures can look different than what was once imagined while still remaining full of stability, love, and joy. She clarified that in her household, she is “holding it down for everyone” as the only parent present on a daily basis.
She also acknowledged that the traditional archetype of a single mother often implies the total absence of a father, but she argued that the term should allow for more nuance.
Tamera Mowry Opened Up About Her Feud With Tia
While she is currently navigating a new romance and the complexities of single motherhood, she is no stranger to conflict, as she also has had her fair share of fights with her twin sister, Tamera.
Tamera recently shared that one of the most challenging periods of her life involved a time when the two sisters lived together and found themselves constantly at odds, as reported by The Blast.
She opened up about a period of intense feuding that occurred when the twins decided to share a home. After growing up in the public eye as a duo, living together as adults forced them to confront the fact that they were evolving into very different people.
Eventually, the sisters reached a breakthrough, realizing that their differences were actually a superpower rather than a weakness.
