Actor Chet Hanks and his ex-girlfriend Kiana Parker have taken legal action against one another following a violent altercation between the two at their Texas home in January.

A judge in Fort Bend County, in suburban Houston, granted Parker a temporary protective order against Hanks, son of Rita Wilson and Tom Hanks, in January. Parker said in court filings that Hanks was physically and verbally abusive for months, the Houston Chronicle reported Wednesday.

The actor, whose legal name is Chester Hanks, was also barred from possessing a firearm. The couple had been dating since 2020 and living together in Sugar Land.

Hanks claimed he broke up with Parker after confronting her about stealing from him. According to documents obtained by People, Hanks filed a lawsuit against Parker in early March accusing her of theft and assault in connection with a violent incident on Jan. 8 at their home.

According to an affidavit filed in Parkers application for a protective order, Hanks was violent and threatening toward her in a series of incidents starting in October.

In one such incident, Hanks said he would blow [Parkers] brains out and blow his brains out as well, according to Parkers affidavit.
