Tia Mowry & Cory Hardrict Divorce Finalized

When Tia Mowry announced that she filed for divorce from Cory Hardrict last year, fans of the famous couple were shocked. “These decisions are never easy, and not without sadness,” the Twitches actress wrote at the time. “I am grateful for all the happy times we had together. I want to thank my friends, family, and fans for your love and support as we start this new chapter moving forward in our lives,” she added after mentioning their plans to co-parent their two children, Cairo and Cree.

That was six months ago, and now, Entertainment Tonight reports that the legalities have been finalized. Documents obtained by the outlet reveal that Hardrict and Mowry “entered into a written agreement regarding their property and their marriage or domestic partnership rights, including support.” The 44-year-old requested joint legal and physical custody with her ex last October. She also asked for a termination of the court’s ability to award spousal support based on their premarital agreement.

Since initially filing, both exes have been mostly cordial to one another and even spent last Christmas together. “Family will ALWAYS be Family. Merry Christmas from our family to yours,” Tia captioned her commemorative Instagram post. Mowry revealed ahead of Valentine’s Day on Twitter that she’s confident in her ability to secure another relationship. “I know love will find me again,” she affirmed on February 10. Surprisingly, she hasn’t publicly been linked to anyone else since announcing her breakup.

The former child star recently opened up about her feelings to her followers, writing, “If I’m being completely honest with you all, these last few months have been some of the hardest of my life,” in the caption of some sweet photos with her little ones. “There’s no telling what direction life is going to take you and nothing but one thing is ever certain: the love I have for these two,” she additionally noted.

Cory Hardrict & Tia Mowry Spend Christmas With The Kids Following Divorce

Even in the midst of an unexpected divorce, Cory Hardrict and Tia Mowry are keeping their composure in the public eye. While the holidays can be a tough time for several separated families, both stars are doing their part to make it easier by spending Christmas together with their two children.

Earlier this month, gossip began circulating saying that the former couple was planning to be under one roof on December 25th. However, last week Radar Online shared a report revealing that the Karen actor “appears to be ready for war” with his latest legal filings. These headlines caused some speculation about whether or not we’d see them put aside their alleged differences for the seasonal festivities.

On Sunday (December 25) afternoon, Mowry shut down any doubters with a simple but effective message on Instagram. “Family will ALWAYS be family,” she wrote. “Merry Christmas from our family to yours.”

Throughout the photos, we see the Sister Sister starlet and her ex sitting side by side. Their daughter, Cairo, is sprawled across their laps, getting a kiss from each of them. Meanwhile, their son, Cree, lays back into his father’s lap.

Additionally, Mowry included some heartwarming father-daughter photos of Cory and his little one hugging in front of the fireplace. Clearly, they’re not letting divorce stand in the way of a cheerful Christmas together.

In Hardrict’s aforementioned petition, he reportedly questions the validity of their prenuptial agreement. Other blogs note that the 43-year-old is refuting his ex-wife’s claims of “irreconcilable differences” being the reason for their demise.

He is agreeing with Mowry’s request for joint legal and physical custody. Elsewhere, he requested that the court terminate her rights to seek spousal support. Surprisingly, he left both boxes unchecked regarding his own spousal support.
