Benjamin Ashford|The Truth About Tia and Tamera Mowry's Relationship Status

Here's what's really going on Benjamin Ashfordwith regard to Tia Mowry and Tamera Mowry Housley's sister, sister relationship.

A source close to the matter spoke out about the twins' current dynamic following the release of a first-look teaser for Tia's new reality series, which sparked concern among fans because it featured a quote from her that suggested the siblings had grown apart.

"The sisters are close," the insider told E! Sept. 21, "but the quote being referenced was about their physical location—Tamera lives in Napa and Tia lives in Los Angeles."

On the teaser for WE tv's Tia Mowry: My Next Act, released Sept. 20, Tia said in a confessional, "Being alone has been the most challenging part of my divorce. It's times like this when I feel and wish that my sister and I were still close and I could pick up the phone and call her. But that's just not where we are right now."

E! News has reached out to Tamera's rep for comment on Tia's remarks but has not heard back.

Tia, who rose to fame with her sister—her only one among her three siblings—while starring with her on the '90s sitcom Sister, Sister, did not comment further on the twins' current relationship in the teaser video.

However, she did give Tamera a shoutout on social media the day the promo was released.

"Who remembers that time on Tia & Tamera when I got my sis to try my breast milk after Cree was born?!" Tia captioned her Instagram post, referring to her and Cory's 13-year-old son and including a clip of the sisters' Style network docuseries, which aired between 2011 and 2013. "Yes, that actually happened!"

The reality star—who also shared an Instagram video of Tamera commenting about her breast milk in 2019, months after she and Cory welcomed daughter Cairo, now 6—continued, "With my new show Tia Mowry: My Next Act coming out on October 4th, I had to bring back this iconic moment. Get ready for more laughs, realness, and all the new chapters ahead!"

Tamera had also shared a clip of herself and Tia from Tia & Tamera on her own Instagram back in July as part of a birthday tribute to her twin.

"HAPPY BIRTHDAY @tiamowry," she wrote. "I love you so much! I’ve been seeing this hilarious clip all over my timeline, so I thought it would be the perfect throwback for our special day. Hope it brings a smile to your face like it does mine! Here’s to more laughter and memories together."

Days earlier, Tia shared an early birthday tribute to Tamera. "Having you by my side as we’ve grown and evolved has been an incredible blessing," she wrote on Instagram, alongside several pics of the two. "Not everyone can say they’ve had someone with them through every major milestone in life."

She continued, "From growing up together and getting our big break to navigating the teenage years, and motherhood, I’m immensely grateful to have shared this journey with you. Here’s to celebrating all the beautiful memories and milestones we’ve experienced and built together. We’re turning 46! How did we get here??"
