As a teen star from the ’90s, Tia Mowry has made her mark in the entertainment world.
“I wanted to share that Cory and I have decided to go our separate ways.
These decisions are never easy, and not without sadness,” her caption read.
It was also reported that Mowry filed for divorce from Hardrict due to irreconcilable differences (viaTMZ).
She actively took time to secure her education and career and chose not to have kids until her mid-30s.
Initially, she hesitated to give future hubby Cory Hardrict a chance due to her career-driven mentality.
However, a conversation with her mother changed her mind.
“That’s when we started hanging out.”
The couple took their things slowly, and according to Mowry,they even waited a year to kiss.
When their courtship officially started, they dated for nearly eight years before marrying in 2008.
But when she met Cory Hardrict in 1999, he had just begun his acting career.
The “All American” actor said he was surprised she took a chance on him.
Hardrict and Mowry actually met before filming the indie flick, “Hollywood Horror” together.
“I had odd jobs.
I worked at K-Mart, graveyard shift, security.
That’s when I was just grinding, man,” Hardrict recounted toGlobalGrind.
“I met my wife during them days.
She was with me.
On Instagram, Mowry shared that she had never experienced the dating scene before.
Her vulnerable captionread: “Even though I’m in my 40s, I feel so inexperienced!
She has also provided some insight into what she isn’t looking for in a relationship.
Mowry made headlines after commenting with the eyeball emoji on a video that addressed toxic partner traits.
In the skit, a financially unstable person manipulates their partner so you can avoid paying bills.
However, Mowry has spoken openly about finally putting herself first.
Because life is really short.”
