From slamming his father to criticisms of cultural appropriation, Chet has been grabbing headlines for a long time now. He recently took a dig at his father after Hank's fans branded him as an entitled brat who threw his dad under the bus.
While talking about his upbringing, Chet claimed he never had strong a rolemodel in his latest YouTube video titled 'The Truth About Growing Up As A Hanks'. He said many people had "contempt" for him as a movie star's child, and while trying to navigate the "s***-talking' and the 'd***-riders," he lacked a strong male role model who could have told him, ''Hey, bro, f*** these people. They are just jealous of you."
Chet has routinely been hit with claims of cultural appropriation for frequently attempting to speak in a fake Jamaican accent. He's also been in a legal battle against ex-girlfriend Kiana Parker, whom he sued for theft, assault, and battery.
