And in a new interview with British GQ, in which he’s the first GQ Heroes cover star, Chris told how his wife’s comfort and encouragement has allowed him to be who he is.
He told the publication: ‘Her sacrifice, commitment, work, support, forgiveness – everything that she has given me over the years has been incredible. I couldn’t have done any of the things I’ve done without it.’
Chris married Spanish actress Elsa, 46, in 2010 and the pair went on to have three children, daughter India, 10, and twin boys Tristan and Sasha, nine.

Opening up on his busy family life and career, Chris told how he feels his marriage has gone by ‘so fast’ and admits that the pair seemed like they really connected ‘halfway through’ their romance due to them starting their family as his career was taking off.
He explained: ‘We were having kids the same time my career was taking off, same time we were getting married, same time we were getting to know each other. It feels like we got to know each other halfway through our relationship, five, six years ago. ‘
The star added that in a ‘beautiful way’, once their children had grown and were out of nappies, things became ‘ a bit more manageable’ in his life.
Elsa and Chris, who have been married for a decade, swapped the bright lights of Hollywood for a more relaxed life in Byron Bay nine years ago.
Elsa previously said she enjoys the laid-back vibe of Byron, where she and her husband own a $30million mega-mansion.
Chris recently announced he was taking a break from acting to spend more time with his family after discovering he was at risk of Alzheimer’s disease.
The Marvel Universe star previously told how he’d decided to take ‘time off’ after filming a confronting episode about death for his new Disney+ docuseries Limitless.
And Chris went on to further emphasise why he opted to take a step back from acting, stating that he’s very busy career didn’t appear to be slowing down.

He told how he went from ‘one film to another’ and didn’t know if the phone would ever ‘stop ringing’, with the Extraction star noting that he would continually say yes to projects as he spent years wondering if he’s ever ‘make it’.
On his decision to pause his career, he added: ‘All of these beautiful moments were rapidly flying past me… It made me just kind of want to wrap that show and get back and see my family. And I did.’
And while he’s taking a break, the film star didn’t entirely rule out returning to Thor if the script was right.
He said: ‘Seeing what they have to offer creatively, if there is something new [for the character]. But I really wanna do some other stuff for a while.’

Also during the chat, the actor recalled his grandfather’s funeral and everyone talking about him with respect, something Chris wants for himself when his time comes.
He said: ‘It made me think about my own life, and it wasn’t about career or anything. It was about being remembered as someone who was good and kind and contributed something of value… I certainly don’t think about the films I’m going to leave behind and how people are going to remember me in that sense.
‘I hope that people think of me fondly and that I was a good person. That I was a good bloke. Like my grandpa.’
The Summer issue of British GQ is available on newsstands on 13th June.
