It has been more than 20 years since the series finale of Sister, Sister aired. According to star Tamera Mowry-Housley, the episode marks the end of the show.

Mowry-Housley, who is now 45 years old, put an end to rumors about a possible Sister, Sister reboot during an exclusive interview with We at the 49th Annual Gracie Awards Gala on Tuesday, May 21, in Beverly Hills. She confirmed, "It's not happening." When asked about her thoughts on the two decades that have passed since the show ended, she humorously commented, "My back and knees remind me, but I'm thankful to still be here."

Sister, Sister ran for six seasons from 1994 to 1999 and followed Tamera Mowry-Housley and her real-life twin sister, Tia Mowry, as they discover they are twins separated at birth. The show depicted the humorous challenges they faced as they adjusted to their new family life with their adoptive parents, portrayed by Tim Reid and Jackée Harry. Let's not forget about their neighbor Roger, played by Marques Houston, who hilariously had a crush on both twins.

Recently, Mowry-Housley hosted the Gracie Awards on Sunday, which recognized the accomplishments of women in media. She expressed her belief in using shared experiences to uplift and empower others. Mowry-Housley also mentioned the importance of connecting with women who have faced similar challenges in the industry, providing a sense of camaraderie and support.

She continued to express her love for the place they were staying in, emphasizing that they wouldn't stay there if they didn't love it. Despite facing challenges, being there reminded them not to give up and to keep fighting for progress by using their voice.

Prior to the annual event, she had a mini Sister, Sister reunion with Harry, 67, at the Special Need Network’s 2024 A Pink Pump Affair on Sunday, May 19. Mowry-Housley was honored with the Trailblazer Award at the event for her advocacy in promoting women’s health and wellness.
