Tom Hanks, who was a victim of a broken home, has revealed that the reason behind his untarnished reputation in Hollywood, is the fact that he made all his mistakes out of public view before he was known.

The 'Forrest Gump' star told the Daily Express that he does not want to admit to the world that he is a bad person nor does he want anyone to have false expectations from him.

The 57-year-old actor, who was involved in a nasty divorce with his former wife and mother of his two children, Samantha Lewes, added that he wasn't caught up in any fallout from early fame, simply because he was not famous.
