Personal life

Mowry dated actress Naya Rivera between 2000 and 2004, after working together on Smart Guy in the 1990s. Rivera remained close with Tahj and his sisters, Tia and Tamera, until her death, including helping the sisters find an apartment when they got kicked out of their house.[8]

On July 12, 2020, Mowry posted an Instagram tribute to Rivera, while search operations were underway for her after she went missing while swimming on July 8 at Lake Piru in Southern California.[9] Rivera was subsequently found the day after and pronounced dead.
