Anthony Anderson and his ‘Trippin’ mom reveal their biggest fight

Anthony Anderson brings his mother on an international vacation in the new E! travel series “Trippin’ With Anthony Anderson and Mama Doris.” 

“It started out as a thank you to my mother for all the sacrifices that she made to get me to where I am,” Anderson, 52, told The Post.

“It’s a way of just celebrating her. Because of my work schedule and my mom’s bingo habit, we don’t get to spend much time together at home. So, the six-week vacation was a time for us to go out and bond and see the world together.”

Each half-hour episode of the series, premiering June 22 (10 p.m.) follows Anderson and his mother Doris Bowman, 69, as they travel to various countries including England, France and visit typical tourist attractions.

They also engage in activities such as taking a British etiquette lesson over tea, participating in African Fashion Week in London, and enjoying a gondola ride in Venice. 

Anderson (“Black-ish,” “Law & Order”) calls himself “a jack-of-all-trades, a master of self. I like to do it all — direct, write, produce, perform in front of the camera.” 

This isn’t Bowman’s first time in the spotlight, either; she frequently joins her son on “To Tell the Truth,” the game show he hosts on ABC.

“Venice was my least favorite place,” she said. “It’s full of water! You couldn’t even step on land. Then it was all cobblestone, nothing smooth, you had to look down as you walk. I didn’t like being surrounded by water… you’ve got to climb out of a damn boat to go home.

“I don’t know what the old people do there. It just wasn’t for me,” she said. “I don’t swim, so I don’t like all that damn water! I’m old — I might slip and fall and drown.”

Anderson and Bowman also got into some family fights (Anderson liked Venice).

They said their biggest argument centered around grapes while they were in France.

“She refused to grow grapes in her home,” Anderson said. “All I did was ask her a question, and she thought it was the end of the world.”

“He kept drilling me over and over, ‘Why don’t you want to?’ He got on my damn nerves!” said Bowman. 

But despite it all, they have no regrets about this vacation. 

“You rarely get moments like this, so I cherish it,” Anderson said.  She’s 69. She’s a young 69, but to spend that type of quality time with your parent, and to see the smile on her face was all worth it, for me. We’ve never done anything like this. We spend a few days vacationing here or there, but to spend this kind of quality time with my mom, traveling and pampering her, was great.

“That is what is going to stay with me for a lifetime.”
