My husband and I bought our granddaughter Eloise a wedding gift from her registry, but she accused us of being cheap. She expected the $40,000 cash gift we give our grandkids before their weddings. Upset, she threatened to cut us off.
“We buy a small gift from the registry and give a check for $40,000 the day before the wedding,” I explained. This time, we sent an air fryer, the cheapest item on her list. Eloise called, livid: “An air fryer? That’s the cheapest thing you could find?”
I told her, “Yes, we’re cheap, old, and useless. The only thing you didn’t know is that the day before the wedding, we were going to gift you a check for $40,000.”
Eloise’s reaction made us reconsider giving the cash. Later, she found out about our tradition and accused us of discrimination. “Why didn’t I get anything?”
“We felt after your reaction, it wasn’t right to go ahead with the gift,” I said. Eloise, now boycotting Christmas, refuses to understand our perspective. Despite this, our door and hearts remain open to her.
Tom Hanks Debuts New Look and Stirs Online Debate, “Looking Really Old”
Tom Hanks and his wife, Rita Wilson, recently showed why they’re considered one of Hollywood’s most enduring and beloved couples at a gala in Beverly Hills. While Hanks exuded his usual charm and Hollywood elegance, it was his noticeable change in appearance that caught everyone’s eye.
The Women’s Cancer Research Fund held its renowned annual fundraiser, “An Unforgettable Evening,” at the Beverly Wilshire in Beverly Hills.
Among the notable attendees were Tom Hanks, 67, and his wife, Rita Wilson, 67, who serve as honorary chairs, lending their star power to the event.
When they arrived, Tom Hanks stole the spotlight in front of the cameras, accompanied by his wife, Rita Wilson. He looked dashing in a classic black suit, paired with a crisp white shirt, a stylish black-patterned tie, and matching shoes.
Rita stood gracefully by his side, wearing a stunning pinkish-red dress with an off-the-shoulder style and a cinched waist, complementing her husband’s elegant look.
Tom Hanks sported a new short haircut, accentuating his salt-and-pepper hair, but what really stood out was his mustache—a rare and eye-catching look for him.
However, many fans expressed concern about his appearance, thinking he didn’t look his best. One fan noted, “He looks terrible, seems to have aged about 20 years overnight.” Another commented, “Tom is looking really old now.” Someone else remarked, “They’re both certainly well-dressed for their age.”
Celebrities can be quite enigmatic, and it’s hard to tell if the person you see on screen is genuinely nice or not. To shed some light on this, we’ve gathered insights from 13 people who have shared their experiences of meeting Tom Hanks.
