Tom Hanks Named As A Potential witness In Son Chet’s Assault Battle w/ Ex-Girlfriend
Tom Hanks is now involved in his son Chet Hank’s court battle with ex-girlfriend Kiana Parker.
The A-list star is now being named as a potential witness. According to court documents obtained by RadarOnline.com, Chet has asked a court to sanction his ex.
In January 2021, Kiana Parker obtained a restraining order against Chet Hanks claiming he had attacked her multiple times during their relationship. In one incident, Kiana claims Chet became enraged after she tried to leave a hotel room. She said he grabbed her wrists and arms to keep her inside the room. During the incident, she said Chet threw a beer bottle at her. Kiana claimed Chet told her she was a “ghetto black b**h” and said nobody would believe her because he’s “Chet Hanks.”
The suit read,
“Hanks became aggressive and hostile. As [Kiana] was lying in bed, Hanks started verbally abusing and threatening her. He shoved her, threatening her with imminent bodily injury, while stating “[I] would not disrespect [him], [he] was in control, [he] would not allow what happened with his mom and dad’s relationship to happen to our” and other things.”
Weeks later, a video of them fighting leaked online. A bloodied Chet filmed the end of the altercation they had at his home. He said Kiana brought “three menacing large men” with her to take property after their split. He said a fight broke out which led to Kiana allegedly smashing him in the face with a pot. Kiana denied all allegations of wrongdoing and argued her actions were in self-defense.
Chet then filed a lawsuit against Kiana for theft, assault and battery. He claimed that Kiana was the abusive one during their relationship. In addition, he accused her of using his credit cards to pay her rent without his consent. In response, Kiana filed her own $1 million lawsuit accusing Chet of assault. He denied all allegations of wrongdoing.
Now, in his new motion, he has asked the court to sanction his ex for refusing to sit for a deposition and for failing to turn over evidence. Chet has demanded Kiana be ordered to pay $11k for her actions.
As part of his motion, Chet also revealed that Kiana’s lawyers told his counsel that the
“case should be settled because it would be embarrassing for [Chet’s] father, Tom Hanks.”
Chet’s lawyer said,
“True to this point, [Kiana] has attempted to make Tom Hanks a witness by claiming that he referred her to a “healer.”
According to Kiana’s motion, Tom Hanks recommended a spiritual healer.
Kiana’s lawyer said,
“Mr. Hanks’ father provided a spiritual healer to treat Ms. Parker for the emotional distress she suffered while living in Los Angeles, CA with Mr. Hanks. She did not retain any of the records for this healer.”
The judge has yet to rule.
