As Hemsworth revealed in the documentary, he recently learned that he was at high risk for developing Alzheimer’s. The documentary also revealed an incredibly personal moment he shared with his wife, actress and model Elsa Pataky, after receiving the news.

And the moment Chris and Elsa shared together has brought tears to so many people’s eyes. As one person on Twitter said, it was “insanely beautiful and sad as well but so romantic. Love wins always.”
