Tia Mowry is reflecting on the holidays.
The Sister, Sister alum got candid about how difficult the season can be, especially as she navigates it as a single mom to son Cree, 13, and daughter Cairo, 6, following her split from ex Cory Hardrict in 2022 after 14 years of marriage
“Co-parenting during the holidays is a journey,” Tia wrote on Instagram Dec. 23, alongside several photos with her children in front of Christmas decor, “one that’s filled with a mix of emotions. It’s different, and yes, it can feel challenging and even lonely at times, especially when you’re adjusting to a new family dynamic.”
Despite the difficulty, the 46-year-old added that she’s “found the beauty in it,” writing that it gives her kids a chance to “build meaningful relationships with both parents,” while also giving space “for self-discovery, healing, and rejuvenation.”
“I’ll admit, as a single mom, I sometimes feel the weight because our family doesn’t look like others,” Tia continued. “But you know what? That’s okay. Different doesn’t mean less than. The most important thing is keeping the traditions alive for my children—because no matter how it looks, we are still family.”
