Tamera Mowry-Housley’s Niece Among Those Killed In Oaks Bar Massacre

Earlier this week Tamera Mowry-Housley had taken to social media to reveal how she was looking for her niece who went missing at the college bar in Thousand Oaks, California – after the ‘gunfire-incident’ which claimed lives of 12 individuals.

It seems that the search is now ending on a devastating note for the actress, as her niece, Alaina Housley, has been confirmed as one of the 12 people killed in the incident.

Alaina Housely we are praying. We love u! If you know anything or any information please let us know. We love you! #borderline
Tamera and her husband announced and confirmed the same with the following joint statement:

“Our hearts are broken. We just learned that our niece Alaina was one of the victims of last night’s shooting at Borderline bar in Thousand Oaks. Alaina was an incredible young woman with so much life ahead of her and we are devastated that her life was cut short in this manner. We thank everyone for your prayers and ask for privacy at this time.”



On a separate post on her Instagram handle, Tamera wrote the following eulogy to her niece and tribute to other victims of the tragedy:

“Alaina. My sweet, sweet Alaina. My heart breaks. I’m still in disbelief. It’s not fair how you were taken and how soon you were taken from us. I was blessed to know you ever since you were 5. You stole my heart. I will miss our inside jokes, us serenading at the piano. Thank you for being patient with me learning how to braid your hair, and I will never forget our duet singing the national anthem at Napa’s soccer game. I love you. I love you. I love you. You are gonna make one gorgeous angel. My heart and prayers are with every victim of this tragedy.”

Sister Tia too, posted on her Instagram handle remembering their young niece.

Our sweet Alaina. We are broken. Our hearts are broken. We love you.
Thoughts and prayers going out to Tamera and her family.
