For a pair who have long been known to have one of Hollywood’s most enduring marriages, 2022 wasn’t exactly one for the books in the Hanks-Wilson household.
The usually happy-go-lucky Tom and Rita have lurched from scandal to scandal in the past 12 months, and sources say she has had enough.
“It hasn’t been a great year for them, so Rita wants to really shake things up,” says a friend, speaking exclusively to Woman’s Day. The pal adds that Rita, 66, is keen to “get in touch with her roots” and move to Greece for a year or so, preferably near the village where her mum grew up.
“Rita was raised Greek Orthodox and has always had a natural pull toward her homeland,” explains the friend, adding that she thinks this is the perfect time to do it and put all their recent stresses behind them.
Sources say an extended stay in Greece is exactly what the pair – who boast two homes there, one in Patmos and another in Antiparos – need right now after a tough time in the headlines.
Indeed, friends are worried their recent trouble with son Chet, 32, who’s being sued by his ex-girlfriend and mother of his child over alleged abuse, has dramatically aged his 66-year-old father.
