Rita Wilson looked visibly upset while having dinner with husband Tom Hanks and their son Chet Hanks at Tra Di Noi restaurant in Malibu on Sunday night. 

The actress, 65, appeared to be wiping tears away from both her eyes during the tense dinner, as her husband, 66, sat across from her.

Meanwhile her son, 32 - who previously called himself 'the only hell my momma ever raised' - sat beside her and was pictured checking out his phone as well as smoking a vape at one point.

Chet opted for a more laid-back look, wearing a black tank top that showed off his tattooed arms.

During the dinner Rita was seen glancing over at her son a number of times, though it's unclear what she might have been emotional about. 

Afterwards, the family was seen departing the restaurant together in one car, with Chet in the backseat.

Tom looked classic as ever while leaving the eatery, wearing a dark navy shirt, black pants, and brown loafers and was seen exiting the restaurant.

Aside from Chet - born Chester Marlon Hanks - the pair also share younger son Truman Theodore, 26.

Tom is also dad to son Colin, 44, with his late ex-wife Samantha Lewes, as well as Elizabeth.

However, it's Chet who's been in the news most frequently, from criticisms of cultural appropriation, brushes with the law, a rehab stint, and seemingly taking digs at his famous father.

Chet was slammed by Tom's fans in February, after he claimed he didn't have a 'strong male role model' growing up, as they insisted he is an 'entitled brat' who threw his dad 'under the bus.'

He opened up about his upbringing in a YouTube video titled 'The Truth About Growing Up As A Hanks' saying many people had 'contempt' for him as a movie star's child, and while trying to navigate the 's***-talking' and the 'd***-riders,' he lacked 'a strong male role model' who could have told him: ''Hey, bro, f*** these people. They are just jealous of you.'''

And in April, Chet faced more backlash for refusing to apologize for culturally appropriating accents.

While appearing on Showtime talk show ZIWE, he was asked if there were any marginalized communities he wanted to apologize to. Hanks replied: 'Nah.'

Chet had routinely been hit with claims of 'cultural appropriation' for frequently attempting to speak in a fake 'Jamaican' accent.

He's also been in a legal battle against ex-girlfriend Kiana Parker, whom he sued for theft, assault, and battery.

Weeks after Chet filed his lawsuit, Kiana got a restraining order against him and filed her own $1 million lawsuit accusing him of assault.

It was reported that the cost of Kiana's case against Chet is currently arbitrary and could be increased after she claimed he assaulted her multiple times from October 2020 until January 2021.
