The couple has been in Australia for the pre-production of Baz Luhrmann’s Elvis Presley film made by Warner Bros.
Posting to his Instagram today, Tom confirmed the news.
“Hello, folks. Rita and I are down here in Australia. We felt a bit tired, like we had colds, and some body aches. Rita had some chills that came and went. Slight fevers too. To play things right, as is needed in the world right now, we were tested for the Coronavirus, and were found to be positive.
“Well, now. What to do next? The Medical Officials have protocols that must be followed. 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?
“We’ll keep the world posted and updated.
“Take care of yourselves!
Hanx!”
Tom and his wife Rita have been in contact with Australian’s and Australian media while being down here, including David Campbell and Belinda Russel on the Today Show a few days ago.
