Cory Hardrict is focusing on being a father.
Over a year after the actor and Tia Mowry—who share kids Cree, 12, and Cairo, 6, together—finalized their divorce, he shared insight into how he has adjusted to the changes in his life.
“Everything is fantastic,” Cory told E! News’ Francesca Amiker on the red carpet at the 2024 BET Awards June 30. “I block out the noise. That's all it is. We know what’s real. The noise is the noise. I don’t have to entertain it.”
And while Cory—who wore an all-white double-breasted suit, sunglasses, along with some gold necklaces and a rose brooch for the ceremony—didn’t elaborate too much where he currently stands with his ex-wife, he did nod to their peaceful co parenting dynamic.

“We have two amazing children,” the 44-year-old, who had Cree by his side during the star-studded outing, continued. “We're all walking with love. Just have to take care of these babies and I have to do God’s mission. That’s it.”
Considering he and Tia were together for over 14 years before their 2023 split, Cory is continuing to slowly move forward in life.
“I just put one foot in front of the other,” he explained. “One day at a time. That’s all I do. Day at a time.”
As for what Cory’s one takeaway from his divorce from the Sister, Sister star has been? He emphasized, “God is truly real.”
For her part, Tia—who also attended the 2024 BET Awards at Peacock Theater in Los Angeles—previously explained that her children were her top priority throughout her decision to separate from Cory.
“It was one of the hardest decisions that I had ever had to make in my entire life,” the 45-year-old told HelloBeautiful last year. “But if they see that mommy can do it, that mommy, no matter what people say, no matter, even if there's some sort of doubt, whatever, mommy pushed through.”
And there was a reason Tia found connecting her decision to her kids so powerful.
“I want my children to do that,” she added of standing strong amid any scrutiny. “That's the best gift I can give them.”
