Tom Hanks

He shouldn't have cheated, but they shouldn't have gotten started on those conditions, and his first wife should have been more responsible about starting it, as she was 4 years older than a very young adult Tom when they got together.

Still a cheater. Rita still an adulteress.

Weren't Hanks and his first wife separated, at her request, when he met Rita Wilson? I seem to recall a story about an actor -- and I thought it was Hanks but I could be wrong -- whose wife wanted a separation. The actor agreed, went off to make a movie, met someone else, and was starting a new relationship when his wife said, "You know? I've changed my mind, let's get back together" and the actor said, "No thank you."

So just to be clear, this is NOT about why for such a great guy he's got such a wonky son or about that weird niece who went on a reality show and behaved poorly recently?

Wow, way to derail things and try to throw attention elsewhere, PP. No one cares much about his son or this niece whose existence was unknown to me until this moment. Even a great guy has, you know, relatives, as most of us do. And like us, he has zero control over his adult relatives or how anyone else perceives them.

Maybe instead of throwing the baby out with the bathwater, it's time for some of you *ahem* adults should realize people make mistakes. Sorry if you're clinging to "all cheaters are trash" as though it's gospel. Some nuanced thinking might do you some good.

It is sort of interesting how his kids with his first wife are normal, successful adults while his kids with his second wife are more troubled.

I always enjoyed him on 'Bosom Buddies'.

Seriously! I almost had a heart attack!! Ugh

Same! I thought he had died for a second! Don’t do that to us.

Same, I just googled. He’s alive and well. There’s an interesting bit about him being a descendant of mixed people called, the Melungeons. Very cool.

He’s a good actor, but he seems to have a big ego. His nice guy act doesn’t seem authentic. He seems like he needs attention and accolades.

His son with Rita is a train wreck. His older kids from his prior wife seem better educated and more grounded.

You can have a big ego and still be a decent human being. To succeed in many professions having a big ego is necessary. I’ve never heard of him being nasty or cruel to people.

The world and people suck! OMG, I thought he was a good one.

Can people not change.
He can be a ”good one” and have made a mistake 40 years ago.

I think he has some weird online stalker. I came across something online awhile back about sex assault conspiracy theory but the person was clearly mentally ill. I don’t know how these celebrities deal with such high volume of crazies. A few years ago, a distant cousin mentioned a completely untrue rumor that DH was not DD’s father. It bothered me a little but I realized they are all nutjobs. I can’t imagine all the garbage a celebrity has to deal with. Not sure how they avoid being jaded and paranoid.
