Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson

The love story of Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson extends back three decades. Wilson and Hanks first met in 1981, when Wilson starred on an episode of Hanks’ campy sitcom, Bosom Buddies. Hanks was already married to Samantha Lewes, his college love, and the father of Colin Hanks. When they reconnected on the set of Volunteers in 1985, the stars aligned. On April 30, 1988, Hanks and Wilson married. “Our relationship isn’t as magical as it appears in movies.” In real life, our connection is as tangible as my presence here. “We both know that no matter what, we’ll be with each other — and we’ll get through it,” Hanks told Oprah Winfrey on their longevity.
