Tom Hanks & Rita Wilson: 37 Years of Love, Loyalty & Laughter

In a world of fleeting fame and Hollywood headlines, Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson stand as a testament to enduring love. This year, the beloved couple quietly celebrated 37 years of marriage—proving that the strongest relationships don’t always need the spotlight.

Tom marked the occasion with a joyful swim photo, writing, “37 years married. Today! Love you, Mrs.” Rita echoed the sentiment with a warm, intimate snapshot and the caption: “Happy 37th Anniversary, my love!!!”

Their story began on a sitcom set—just two young actors with undeniable chemistry. Life delayed their romance: Tom was still married, and Rita was focused on her rising career. But real love waited. It blossomed naturally, grounded in friendship and mutual respect.

Through decades of red carpets and real-life challenges—including Rita’s breast cancer battle in 2015—the couple stayed strong. “He was just there,” Rita said of Tom’s quiet strength. “That meant everything.”

Now 10 years cancer-free, their secret is simple. “We have fun,” says Rita. Tom adds, “Finding each other.” In a town built on illusion, their love remains beautifully, powerfully real.
