Tamera Mowry-Housley Details the Tragic Loss of Her Daughter
Housley was one of 12 people killed in the mass shooting at the Borderline Bar & Grill in Thousand Oaks, California in November 2018. In a new memoir, Mowry-Housley recounts learning her nephew was killed and how it affected her. “On the night of November 7, 2018, shortly after going to bed, my husband’s phone rang. It was Arik, Adam’s brother, “Alaina was out dancing with friends, and there was a shooting—that’s all I know right now,” Mowry-Housely wrote in her book. “Shots? Alaina? This is impossible, he should be fine. The same nightmare that has destroyed too many families in this country has arrived in our bedroom—and unfortunately that nightmare is real.”

Tamera Mowry-Housley Calls Her Nephew: “My Favorite Housley”
A quote from the book continues, “Alaina, you and I clicked instantly. We bond over fun and feminine things like nail polish, braids, makeup and clothes. I’m in love with Adam, and I’m smitten with your whole family, but it didn’t take me long to come to a shocking conclusion. That you, Alaina, are my favorite Housley. You know that, right, Alaina? And I’m sorry for Adam! But it’s the honest-to-God truth,” he wrote. “We also sing well together. I cherish the picture of us right after we sang the national anthem together before the first Napa Valley 1839 football game. I often show that picture to people because it captures the essence of our relationship. Our face shows a lot of love with a big side of stupid. We look so proud and happy in that picture!”
Mowry-Housely went on to describe the feelings of coming here during this tragic time and the thoughts she had. “But this is the part that haunts me sometimes. Alaina, you wanted me to come see you to talk about acting and your new life in college, and I couldn’t make it work. I don’t think so, because I’ll see you at Aden’s birthday party next week. I could never in a million years imagine that I would never see you again. It is impossible to understand this,” he wrote. “Someone with a gun walks into a bar and steals your life along with the lives of eleven innocent people. I am heartbroken for all that was stolen. Your graduation from Pepperdine, your first job after college, the trips you’ll take, the man you’ll meet, help you through your first heartbreak, the songs you’ll sing, your wedding (you steal my attention, you look so beautiful!), your first baby. We have been robbed of all your potential—your entire future.”

It’s not fair how you were taken and how much long you were taken from us. I was blessed to know you since you were 5. You stole my heart. I will miss our inside jokes, us singing at the piano. Thank you for putting up with me learning how to braid your hair, and I will never forget our duet sang the national anthem at the Napa football game. I love you. I love you. I love you.
