Now here is another shocker of a divorce from Hollywood's golden couple - Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson. It's been a month since the 60-year-old Tom and 59-year-old Rita got into a scrap in their $26 million Pacific Palisades mansion on a cliff.

The fight too was a cliffhanger, with Rita making an explosive exit. However, sources say that the 28-year marriage has always been simmering and creating problems for both of them. 

The issue isn't another woman - or another man, but another pursuit - apart from the marriage. Explains an insider: "Tom's been going straight from one set to another. It wasn't easy for him to hide his pain while filming Sully, but working nonstop is a kind of escape for him. When Rita confronts him about it, he promises he'll slow down, but he never does. They're caught in a vicious cycle."

Another bone of contention between the couple is their 26-year-old son, Chet. That man is not a calm son, but gets involved in "booze-fueled brawls and drug addictions." He even vanished in the previous year, hence, his parents are in a brawl attempting to bring him back.

"Tom can be heavy-handed and overbearing with Rita, but he's the complete opposite with his son. Rita takes a tough-love approach and thinks Tom is too easy on him. In some ways she blames Tom for Chet's problems," adds the source.

Both their personalities are complete opposites. Reveals Tom: "I told her long ago, "if you and I were at the same high school I wouldn't have had the courage to speak to you," he said. "Too vivacious, too beautiful, too popular - everything - too upbeat, too positive."

Rita too admitted that had they attended the same high school, she wouldn't have given him her time, and would have preferred not to have anything to do with him.

The problems were caused right back in 2014, when a source recalled that Tom's "overbearing" behavior was making him "cold" and "controlling" with his wife.

"You can feel the consistent tension between them," an eyewitness said. "They've both been good at biting their tongues for years, but it's reached a point where they've started to let loose at each other when they're out of the public eye."

"Divorce would obviously be the last option for Rita," added the source. "But everyone has a breaking point."
