Tamera Mowry Addresses Criticism About Her Biracial Children
Recently, Tamera Mowry hopped on TikTok to address what she calls her “reality,” where people constantly question if her kids really belong to her since they’re biracial. The ‘Sister Sister’ star used a viral sound that had questions popping up about her children. One question asked if her kids have more than one father, but Tamera quickly clapped back, saying both of her kids belong to her and share the same dad. She then explained, “They are biracial and pulled different genes from each one of them.”
As the questions kept coming, she broke down that her son having blue eyes and her daughter having brown eyes is just how genetics works. “That’s just how genetics work — sometimes one child inherits more genes from one parent than the other.” Meanwhile, in her caption, Tamera said that parents of biracial children could probably relate to her frustrations, as it’s something that she deals with on a regular basis.
