Is Chet Hanks missing?
Tom Hanks' Rapper Son, Chet, Defends His Use Of 'The N Word'
Although a rep for Tom Hanks denied his son was missing last week, following a Star Magazine report, the aspiring rap artist has yet to be seen publicly in over a month, and his social media pages have been silent for five weeks.
That said, Radar Online reported on Monday that Chet resurfaced on the social media page of his rumored girlfriend, Bella Cheveux, a makeup artist based out of Los Angeles. The photo, however, doesn't appear to be current, but rather a "Throwback Thursday" photo.

Last week, Star Magazine claimed Chet's family was fearing the worse due to his unexplained absence, but hadn't yet contacted the authorities.
Tom and wife Rita Wilson "both agreed that they didn't want to file an official missing persons report with the police, that it would be better to try and keep the development out of the press," a source explained to the magazine. "Tom obviously has a lot of contacts in the security industry, and through them, he hired a group of 'outside parties' to handle the situation.'"
Hours later, a separate source denied the report to Gossip Cop.
In his most recent post on Instagram, Chet told his fans, "I'm not gonna be on Instagram for a while… Getting the f**k out of Dodge for a min… Gonna go get my mind right. I'll be back!"
