They have been married for 28 years and have had two children together.

During that time Tom Hanks has made a fortune off films like Big and Castaway (he is reportedly worth $350m), picking up Oscars along the way.

But on Tuesday the 60-year-old star joked that his spouse Rita Wilson made a poor choice. 'She could have done better,' he joked to E! News at the MOMA Film Benefit in NYC. 'I am a lucky man.'

Rita only had nice things to say about the Hollywood icon.

'He's amazing,' she said. 

And then she added that honoring him at the art museum was a good fit. 'I think there's something to be said about the choices of the films that he's done and as a collective thing it's pretty nice and pretty impressive,' said Wilson.

The actors were joined by longtime pal Steven Spielberg as well as his spouse Kate Capshaw.

The mother of two has said that she keeps her curves by doing yoga and jogging.

And the workouts have paid off as the veteran still lands modeling gigs, most recently for John Galliano. 

Also at the event was Emma Watson, who won points with her classy velvet dress and matching choker.
