In Brief

The 35-year-old son of Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson revealed he lives in a Jayco Eagle RV in a Nashville trailer park, focusing on his country music career with the band Something Out West.

Chet Hanks, the 35-year-old son of Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson, confirmed on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon that he has moved into a trailer park in Nashville. He lives in a Jayco Eagle RV equipped with a kitchen and a separate shower, which he considers essential.

Reasons for the move

Hanks explained the decision as a desire to focus on his country music career with the band Something Out West. He avoided renting an apartment to skip furnishing it and was inspired by a simpler lifestyle after a trip to California, where he stayed in an RV. He also owns an apartment in Los Angeles.

Neighbors and daily life

Most of Hanks' neighbors are retirees, whom he described as "wonderful people." He uses the campground's amenities, including barbecue facilities, and notes that the RV has everything he needs.
