Tamera Mowry-Housley leaves her talk show “The Real” after six seasons.
She was co-host of the show since 2013, which originally featured her alongside Tamar Braxton, Loni Love, Jeannie Mai, and Adrienne Houghton.
“For seven years, my home and my heart have been at ‘The Real’. The friendships I made there will last a lifetime, and the people I was blessed to interview have changed my life for the better. I am very proud of what all the women and I have accomplished there, including two well-deserved NAACP Image Awards and a Daytime Emmy, ”she wrote on Instagram. “However, all good things must come to an end, and it is with a bittersweet smile that I announce that I am leaving ‘The Real’. My fellow hosts, I love them, will miss them and will always be there to help them. Thank you for Teach me, support me and love everyone. Sisters forever. I will support you as I look forward to spending more time with my family, looking for incredible new opportunities and embarking on the next chapter in my life. “
After Mowry-Housley’s departure, the remaining hosts include Love, Mai, and Houghton. Braxton left the talk show in 2016. Actor and comedian Amanda Seales also joined the lineup briefly in January, but left in June this year.
Mowry-Housley also said in her Instagram caption that she did not intend to make her announcement Monday, the same day that her friend and former “Glee” star Naya Rivera was found dead by the Ventura County Sheriff’s Office. . She wrote a tribute to Rivera earlier in the day, writing “My sweet Naya. I love you. I will always love you. I will never forget your sweet smile, your incredible voice and your warmth and love that have always welcomed me.”
