Two-time Academy Award-winner Tom Hanks, 54, and his second wife, actress Rita Wilson, 53, have quietly raised their two children, Chester (Chet) and Truman. (Hanks also has two children—the actor Colin Hanks and daughter Elizabeth Ann—with his first wife, Samantha Lewes.) Married since 1988, the Hanks and Wilson are bosom buddies (which also happens to be the name of the TV show that brought them together). Their kids stay out of the spotlight, though Chet had a tiny part as a student in "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull."
