Tia Mowry’s candid take on divorce recovery

Mowry captioned the video with a poetic message, “Resilience: the art of bouncing back, stronger than ever,” accompanied by a heart emoji.

The video showed Tia engaging in various activities such as exercising, reading, posing for photoshoots, vacationing, and spending time with loved ones.

She was candid about the difficulty of bouncing back from the divorce, describing it as a whirlwind journey filled with a range of emotions.

“Recovering from a divorce feels like a whirlwind journey. I found that through the process divorce isn’t a place where we arrive, it’s entering a new chapter of life with many nuances and no one-size-fits-all all handbook,” she said.

She also spoke about the rollercoaster of emotions that come with it. “One moment you’re relieved, feeling like you’ve conquered something significant, and then suddenly waves of emotions hit you all over again,” she added.

As she continued, she spoke about how she’s tried to be strong for her children through the process and done things to better herself.

“It’s a side of divorce that isn’t often discussed, especially when there’s kids involved. You strive to be a role model, teaching them resilience and self-care," Mowry said.

"You try different things to soothe and release emotional build-up: exercise, journaling your thoughts, meditation, and seeking therapy to cope with the breakup of the dreams you had for the future,” she added.

She further revealed, "It may sound cliche, but time truly does have a way of soothing pain."

“These decisions are never easy, and not without sadness. We will maintain a friendship as we co-parent our beautiful children," she added.
