Tom Hanks dismisses trolls who call wife “flabby,” says she’s one of the ‘most beautiful women’ on earth

After 35 years of wedded bliss, Tom Hanks is still gushing over Rita Wilson, the same beautiful 25-year-old woman who made him feel the “ka-boing” when they first met on the set of Bosom Buddies.

Responding to online critics who were attacking his wife for being “flabby,” Hanks openly expresses his love and admiration for the woman he says is “one of the most classically beautiful women who’s ever walked the planet Earth.”

Serving as one of Hollywood’s few examples of long-lasting love, Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson are still as adorable today as when they first met in 1981 on the set of the TV series, Bosom Buddies.

Hanks, a regular on the sitcom, met Wilson when she appeared in one episode as a devil worshipper who dates his pal.

At the time, Hanks was still married to his high school sweetheart Samantha Lewes, whom he shares son Colin Hanks.

But Hanks and Wilson – who both produced the My Big Fat Greek Wedding franchise – were destined to be together.

“Rita and I just looked at each other and – kaboing – that was that,” said the star of Forrest Gump. “I asked Rita if it was the real thing for her, and it just couldn’t be denied.”

In 1988, the star of Big divorced Lewes and married Wilson, his co-star from the 1985 film Volunteers.

Almost four decades later
Both now 67, the couple – who share two sons, Chet and Truman – celebrated their 35th anniversary in April 2023.

Over the past three decades, they have starred together in several films, like Bonfire of the Vanities and Sleepless in Seattle, and have supported one another with their unconditional love.

“I’ll never forget, we were standing on the corner of 57th and 5th in New York, or 58th and 5th,” Wilson said of her husband. “We were holding hands, and we were waiting for the traffic light to change. And he looked at me and he said, ‘You know, I just want you to know, that you never have to change anything about who you are in order to be with me.’ Literally, a wave of – if love is a feeling, or a cellular thing that happens to your body – it went through me, and that’s pretty much who he is, and how he’s been.”

In 2015, when Wilson had a double mastectomy and reconstruction after being diagnosed with breast cancer, she said she was filled with gratitude for her supportive husband.

“You never know how your spouse is going to react in a situation like this. I was so amazed, so blown away by the care my husband gave me…who knew it would make you even closer?”

And no one can forget 2020, when the famous couple announced at the beginning of Covid that they both tested positive.

“I think that having the virus at the same time made it that little bit easier,” said Wilson, a singer-songwriter. “We were taking care of each other instead of having the pressure of taking care of one person and no one taking care of you or understanding that the person at home needs a break.”

In 2022, when the power pair were in New York City promoting Elvis, which Hank stars, the actor and filmmaker pulled a huge power move when a fan tripped his lovely wife while they were traveling from the building to their car.

The usually cool Hanks sniped at swarming fans, “Guys, this is my wife. Back the f–k off! Knocking over my wife?!”

The same year, some pictures emerged of Wilson – who’s no stranger to weight fluctuations – and she became the target of online trolls who compared her to an “unmade bed,” and said she looked “flabby.”

“Tom looks in great shape, while Rita looks out of shape and flabby,” one user writes, while another anonymous critic adds, “Rita Wilson has really let herself go.”

Before Hanks had a chance to respond, netizens jumped in with comments, defending Wilson, who worked as a producer with her husband on the 2022 film A Man Called Otto, that Hanks also starred.

One fan writes, “Please, Mr. NoProfilePic, post a picture of your perfect body that gives you the right to judge others so harshly…” A second shares, “OMG, really, we get older and our bodies change dramatically. I think she looks great!” And a third adds, “Beauty within ya twit.”

As for Hanks, he says his wife is “extremely brave and beautiful,” and “one of the most classically beautiful women who’s ever walked the planet Earth.”

“I’m a lucky man,” he previously said.

A POLICE OFFICER HELPED A LITTLE BOY TIE HIS SHOE—SECONDS LATER, EVERYONE IN THE RESTAURANT FROZE It was supposed to be just a quick lunch break. The officers sat at their table, half-eaten burgers and fries in front of them, when a little boy walked up. He wasn’t scared. He wasn’t shy. He simply lifted his foot and said, “Can you help me?” One of the officers chuckled, nodding as he knelt down to tie the boy’s untangled shoelaces. His hands moved carefully, tightening the knot as the other officers watched with amused smiles. It was such a small, innocent moment—something most people wouldn’t think twice about. And then— The restaurant door slammed open. A man rushed inside, his face pale, his voice shaking as he yelled— And in an instant, the officer shot to his feet, reaching for his radio. Lunch was over. Something was very wrong. (continues in the first 💬⬇️)

HE WOULDN’T LET GO OF THE CHICKEN—AND I DIDN’T HAVE THE HEART TO TELL HIM WHY SHE WAS MISSING YESTERDAY That’s Nugget. She’s not just a chicken. She’s his chicken. Every morning before school, he runs outside barefoot—even in the cold—to find her. He talks to her like she’s a classmate, tells her about spelling tests and what he thinks clouds are made of. She follows him like a dog. Waits by the porch until he gets home. We thought it was cute at first. Then we realized it was more than that. After his mom left last year, he got quiet. Stopped smiling the way he used to. Wouldn’t even touch his pancakes, and those used to be sacred to him. But then Nugget started hanging around—this awkward puff of yellow that wandered into our yard from who-knows-where. And something clicked. He smiled again. Started eating. Sleeping. Laughing. All because of this one goofy bird. Yesterday, Nugget was gone. We searched everywhere. Coop, woods, roadside. No feathers, no tracks, nothing. He cried himself to sleep with her photo clutched in his little fist. And then this morning—there she was. Just standing in the driveway like nothing happened. A little muddy. A scratch on her beak. But alive. He scooped her up, eyes shut tight like he was afraid she might disappear again. Wouldn’t let her go. Not for breakfast, not for school, not for anything. And as I stood there watching him, I noticed something tied around her leg. A tiny red ribbon. Frayed at the edges. And a tag I hadn’t seen before. It said: ⬇️ (continue reading in the first cᴑmment)

HE WASN’T SUPPOSED TO BE THERE—BUT THEN HE HUGGED ME LIKE I WAS FAMILY I was just trying to get across 7th Street without messing up my knee again. Had my little knee scooter, the kind with the one wheel in front, you know? I was mostly focused on not tipping over and getting to the coffee shop before the lunch crowd hit. Then I heard someone shout my name—not scream it, just say it with so much heart it stopped me cold. I turned, and there he was. Nico. He’s in the special needs program at our local high school, and I’d met him a few times at community events. Sweetest soul ever. He always called me his “hero,” which felt like a lot for a guy who just played semi-pro ball before tearing his ACL. But he remembered. Every game. Every score. Every stat. But I hadn’t seen him in months. Apparently, he convinced his older sister to skip her class and drive him downtown just to “check on me,” even though he knew I wasn’t playing anymore. He had this little sign he made with glitter letters that said, “WE LOVE YOU, TYRELL.” And yeah, I lost it. Right there on the sidewalk, with cars crawling past and people trying not to stare, Nico came up to me and wrapped his arms around my waist like I was still out there making game-winning plays. I bent down, hugged him back, and for a second, everything else—my injury, my doubts, my whole messed-up season—just disappeared. Then his sister quietly said, “Nico has something to tell you,” and his voice started to shake as he looked up at me…⬇️
