Tom Hanks defended his wife from crowd of admirers

Tom Hanks made the headlines of Western tabloids. This time with a scandal: The Forrest Gump star nearly got into a fight with incompetent fans to protect his wife. When Tom returned home with his wife, Rita Walson, a crowd of fans rushed to get an autograph from the actor and take a picture with the idol. But some were very active and almost knocked out Tom Hanks’ wife.

This made him very angry. He angrily shouted to the fans, “Damn, that’s my wife! Remove them all!” The video immediately went viral on the Web, with many believing it was not worthy of such a violent response from Tom Hanks.

Tom Hanks and Rita Walson have been married for 34 years. Tom first saw Rita on The Brady Family in 1972, and they say he fell in love with her right away. She was then 16 years old. They met on the set about 10 years later. True, at that time Tom had a wife and a son, but, as they say, you can not escape from fate. Three years later, Tom and Rita met on the set of the comedy Volunteers. That’s when emotions flared up. Hanks filed for divorce from his wife (which was finalized only three years later). After that, he immediately proposed to Rita. By the way, for his sake, the actor even had to convert to Orthodoxy. The couple had two sons: Chester and Truman.
