Tia-and-Tamera-2

On ’90s series Sister Sister, Tia and Tamera Mowry played Tia Landry and Tamera Campbell, twin sisters reunited as teens after being separated at birth. In real-life, the twins grew up together in Germany and the States with parents John Mowry, a Caucasian Army sergeant, and Darlene Renee Mowry, a security guard originally from the Bahamas. Both returned to sitcoms as adults: Tia spent six seasons on The Game, and now stars on Nickelodeon show Instant Mom. Tamera appeared on the short-lived ABC Family show Roommates, and currently co-hosts syndicated talk show The Real.
