The only indication was given that he and his wife Rita Wilson will be quarantined for some time, probably two weeks.

It is yet unknown how the beloved actor and his wife contacted the virus.

We Hanks’ will be tested observed, and isolated for as long as public health and safety requires. Not much more to it than a one-day-at-a-time approach, no?

Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson, both of them 63 years old, have been married for 32 years and represent a role model for healthy and beautiful relationships which are rarely seen in Hollywood. Their relationship is a remarkable contrast to the most celebrity couples of 60+ aged actors marrying actresses 30 years younger than them and lauding their predatory relationship as some sort of ideal relationship ie. noted figures like Quentin Tarantino and Alec Baldwin.
