Chris Hemsworth Shares Family’s Airport Delay Due to Passport Mix-UpPreviousNext

Chris Hemsworth and his family were delayed at an airport due to a passport mix-up when he mistakenly brought his daughter’s passport instead of his son’s for an international flight. Despite his attempts to explain the error to security, the officials did not accept the explanation, causing a travel delay. Hemsworth and his wife Elsa Pataky, married since 2010, have three children: daughter India Rose and twins Sasha and Tristan, who have occasionally appeared in entertainment projects.
