A post dedicated by Rita Wilson on Father's Day to her husband was made on Sunday.

The actress referred to Tom Hanks as the "man who can do everything".

More specifically, she photographed him while he was ironing in their house and wished him a happy father's day.

"Happy Father’s Day to the man who can do it all!!," the actress wrote under his photo in a Twitter post.

The couple have been married for 34 years and at every opportunity they express the love and admiration they have for each other.

They both have two sons, Chester and Truman.

The couple officially became citizens of Greece in 2020.

Alongside Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis and his wife, the couple posed for a picture with their new passports.

Mitsotakis posted the picture on Instagram, writing that Hanks and Wilson "are now proud Greek citizens."

The meeting between the movie stars and the Greek leader took place on the island of Antiparos.

Hanks, Wilson and their children were granted honorary Greek citizenship last year for their role in bringing attention to a devastating wildfire near Athens in July 2018.

The wildfire ripped through the seaside village of Mati, killing more than 100 people.

Greece's Interior Minister Takis Theodorikakos said Hanks "showed real interest in the people who suffered from the fire in Mati and promoted this issue in the global media".

Former Greek President Prokopis Pavlopoulos then signed an honorary naturalisation order for Hanks and his family, citing their "exceptional services to Greece".

The order allowed Hanks and his family to claim Greek citizenship.

"Starting 2020 as an honorary citizen of all of Greece!" Hanks wrote on Twitter.

Hanks, a convert to the Greek Orthodox Church, and Wilson, who has Greek heritage, have made their shared love of the country known.

The pair have been visiting Greece for years, often holidaying in the country during the summer months.

They are reported to own property in Greece, including a home on the island of Antiparos.

Their link with Greece is said to have informed their decision to co-produce the hit romantic comedy My Big Fat Greek Wedding.

A two-time Academy Award winner, Hanks expressed his admiration for Greece when appearing at the Golden Globes earlier this year.

"I've been Hellenic now for the better part of 32 years," Hanks said as he picked up the Cecil B DeMille lifetime-achievement award.

"Greece is a haven... I've been around the world, I've been to the most beautiful places in the world, none of them tops Greece. The land, the sky, the water, it's good for the soul, it's a healing place."
