TOM & RITA FRESH FEARS FOR THEIR SON
Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson are once again reeling at their troubled son Chet’s behaviour. A shocking video of a bloodied Chet allegedly involved in a violent altercation with his ex-girlfriend Kiana Parker hit the internet on March 31.
“B*tch just attacked me with a knife,” the 30-year-old rapper claims in the footage, filmed on January 8 at his Texas home. “No, I didn’t,” Kiana is shown shouting back.
“You pushed me!”
It’s just the latest in a string of upsetting behaviour apparently leaving his A-list parents at a loss. “Chet’s got his demons and lives on the edge,” says an insider. “Tom wants to be supportive. But he also wants to see some change come out of this for Chet.”
This incident could prove to be the most serious yet for the troubled star, who previously battled substance addiction.
Kiana, claiming months of physical abuse, obtained a restraining order against Chet, although a rep for Chet calls her claims “completely false, fabricated and fictional”.
Chet has also filed a suit, alleging his ex stole $6500 and other property from him in addition to attacking him.
Tom and Rita, both 64, are reportedly taking a “toughlove” approach. “They’ll continue to support him, but they won’t baby him.”
Songstress Celine Dion was once declared “lucky to be alive” after her weight dropped to just 44kg in 2019. But insiders reveal she has a new lease on life and is emerging from months at home “as a new woman”.
“She has a fit figure and an optimistic mindset,” says a source of the 53-year-old singer.
After finishing her gruelling eight-year Las Vegas residency in June 2019, the prospect of embarking straight into a 2020 world tour left Celine overworked and undernourished.
“She had the appetite of a small bird,” says an insider of the star. “She used to push herself to extremes in the studio and rehearsals rehearsals. She always put her health last.”
But the postponement of her Courage tour due to COVID gave the mum-ofthree the chance to rest and focus on taking care of herself – and sit down to three meals a day!
“She’s feeling refreshed and courageous,” says the source. “This time away from the spotlight worked like a tonic.”
