The couple met in 1981 on the set of "Bosom Buddies", while Hanks was still married to his first wife, college sweetheart, Samantha Lewes. They had two children together, Elizabeth Ann and Colin.
The former couple reportedly started living separately in 1984 and had officially separated by 1987.
Hanks and Wilson went public with their romance the same year and tied the knot in 1988. Within their 33 years of marriage, the couple welcomed two children, Chet and his younger brother, Truman.
They also triumphantly faced Wilson’s breast cancer diagnosis in 2015. The health scare led to Wilson having a double mastectomy followed by reconstruction surgery. Five years later, the pair battled the coronavirus while in Australia in March 2020.
The diagnosis made headlines worldwide as the couple was the first high-profile inpiduals to contract the deadly virus.
The duo kept fans updated throughout their treatment and recovery, including when they donated plasma, twice, to help medical professionals in the battle against the virus.
