Tia Mowry is clarifying her comments about not being close with her twin sister, Tamera.

We previously reported that during an episode of her new reality show, “Tia Mowry: My Next Act”, the actress gets candid about her divorce from Cory Hardrict. 

While discussing the divorce, Tia says she wishes she can pick up the phone and call her sister, Tamera. However- the two simply aren’t “close right now.” In the teaser clip of the episode, the actress says, “[I wish] I could pick up the phone and call her, but that’s just not where we are right now.” 

Tia goes on to say that the most difficult part about her divorce is feeling “alone.”

TIA SPEAKS:

In an exclusive interview with US Weekly, Tia clarified her comments. “You could hear it from me, and this is basically what I was insinuating: I feel like as we grow up, we all start our own families and their children need to lean on them. We begin to take on new roles and responsibilities within our lives,” she exclusively told Us. “That is what that was all about.”

“In these transitions in life, sometimes you just want a hug and you just want someone to be as accessible as they used to be, and that is not the case,” she stated. “It’s called life.”

“I love my sister very much. She loves me very much,” Tia added. “We have a closeness and a beautiful connection. But that’s what that was all about. It’s just how life unfolds, and it happens with many families.”

She continued: “When you’ve been in this industry for over 30 years, things are always taken out of context and it is what it is. The only thing that I can do is control my behaviors and be the best person that I could possibly be, and that’s what both of us are. We are incredible, inspiring examples, and we have been that all our lives. So, why change that now?”
