Chet Hanks has opened up about his experience on the reality show The Surreal Life: Villa of Secrets while being almost 10 years sober.
The eldest son of Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson, who got sober before becoming a father to his daughter Michaiah in April 2016, whom he shares with ex Tiffany Miles, told Page Six that he did not feel any temptation to partake in drinking while filming Surreal Life, despite being surrounded by booze.
MTV announces the celebrity cast lineup for the upcoming season of ‘The Surreal Life’:

“Yeah, I don’t even think about that,” he says. “It’s, like, not even on my radar — like, the thought of taking a drink or whatnot. So it’s, like, not even a blip on the radar.”
However, the 33-year-old admitted previously on an episode of Bradley Martyn‘s Raw Talk podcast that it wasn’t alcohol that gave him the most trouble, but rather cocaine. “The drug I had the most problem with was just f–king coke, dude.”
“For somebody who might be earlier in their sobriety where it still is a temptation, my advice would just be, like, remove yourself from that environment,” he suggested.
Hanks also mentioned he was appreciative of having Tyler Posey in his corner on the show, as the Teen Wolf actor, 32, is also completely clean after dabbling in sobriety over the years.
