Timothy Mowry was quite energetic and fond of participating in sports from a very young age. Upon graduating high school, Mowry chose to enlist in the military. His decision was largely influenced by his strict and ambitious upbringing in his family.
Mowry, who was still very new to the army, was rapidly promoted to the rank of first sergeant (1SG) after he aced the mental and physical tests.
As a 1SG, Mowry had to assume a multitude of administrative tasks in addition to leading the battalion. This led to Mowry becoming a sort of fatherly figure to the people in his unit.
Having spent many years in the US military, Timothy John Mowry concluded his service and then relocated to California. Taking a job as a custody officer with the Glendale Police Department, the transition to civilian life was complete.
Timothy Mowry & Darlene Renee’s Love Story
Timothy Mowry and Darlene Renee Flowers met each other in high school. After graduation, they joined the US Army together, ultimately spending over ten years in the military.
Timothy achieved the title of first sergeant and headed a battalion while stationed in Germany. Darlene rose through the ranks to become a drill sergeant after devoting a number of years to the military.
The young couple were smitten with love and decided to the knot in 1975. They were both 18 years old at the time and were also an inspiration for many interracial couples at that time.
In 1975, Timothy and Darlene got married and had been together for 40 years. However, in 2015, the couple’s divorce was completed with the court papers citing irreconcilable differences. Neither of them has revealed the reason behind their divorce.
Despite being apart, they still have a cordial relationship. Both of them put family first and make sure to gather for the holidays.
Kids
In the late 80s, when the Gulf War was in full swing, Timothy and Darlene were both in the army, stationed in Germany. The couple was blessed with their twin daughters, Tia Mowry and Tamara Mowry, in 1978.
When the girls were two years old, the family moved back to the United States, where Texas was their first stop. As with any other household in the military, the Mowrys had to move around frequently.
They even lived in Hawaii for a considerable amount of time. As Timothy’s daughters started to take part in acting and modeling, the family came to the conclusion that relocating to Los Angeles would be more beneficial for them.
Darlene made a vow to move to Los Angeles permanently if Tia was able to secure a job, so she left her military career behind when her daughter was successful.
Unfortunately, Timothy Mowry couldn’t join them on such a huge change, so he had to return to Germany for another two years.
Timothy and Darlene welcomed their first son Tajh Mowry on May 7, 1986. Following his older sisters’ footsteps, Tajh started acting at a young age and has since been featured in multiple films and TV shows.
His filmography includes Smart Guy (1997-1999), Baby Daddy (2012), Kim Possible, How We Roll (2022), and much more.
The youngest of the couple’s kids, Tavior, was born on July 5, 1993. Unlike his siblings, Tavior did not take the path of acting but instead was more interested in sports and music.
He even attended the University of California, playing football, until an injury ended his career. He is now working as a music producer.
