"Athens is everywhere. Greeks. Parthenon Nashville," Rita captioned the photo.

Rita's sweet posts come as concerns for Tom's health were shared by Mail Online after he appeared on stage earlier this month and struggled to control his shaking right hand.

Tom has suffered from several health issues during the years. Most recently in 2020, he and Rita tested positive for COVID-19 just days after the World Health Organization officially declared the outbreak a pandemic.

Tom has been busy promoting his new film ELVIS

In the past, the actor has opened up about his diabetes, with Tom telling American talk show host David Letterman that he had started to experience symptoms a whopping "20 years" before he was officially diagnosed.

Having had "high blood sugar numbers" since age 36, the star initially ignored the risk factors of the condition, and failed to make enough changes in his lifestyle to avoid an official diagnosis.

"I went to the doctor, and he said, 'You know those high blood sugar numbers you've been dealing with since you were 36? Well, you've graduated! You've got type 2 diabetes, young man,'" Tom recalled before going on to call himself an "idiot" for not doing something to prevent the condition.
