After a long career at the top, Tim Allen has addressed the rumors concerning himself and Tom Hanks. I don’t care what anyone says, they both deserve our respect and love. Thanks for the memories, Tim ❤ Check comments …

A household name, Tim Allen is well-liked and well-known by viewers of all ages. The 69-year-old actor’s accomplishment in Hollywood is evident throughout the course of a long career. But despite all of the success and acclaim, he has complete faith in Tom Hanks, his co-star on “Toy Story” and close friend.

In a recent conversation on Kelly Clarkson’s show, Allen revealed that he and Hanks are actually buddies. Even if they don’t always agree, Allen respects Hanks for his intelligence and kind heart. Their relationship, which began in the original “Toy Story” film and has only become stronger with time, is evident.

“We’ve been going to lunch twice a year since Toy Story 1, and we’re like two older women because we sit almost too close at a booth,” Allen says, endearingly and with a hint of humor. Indeed, Allen tells a funny story about how, during “Toy Story 1,” Hanks tucked fries from his plate with a casual demeanor. Allen was deeply touched by this modest show of friendship, as he had not encountered such kindness during his childhood.
