Chris and Liam Hemsworth are two of Hollywood’s most genetically blessed stars.
And the Australian actors shared heartfelt tributes for their very youthful-looking dad Craig Hemsworth for Father’s Day on Sunday.
The buff brothers posted shirtless photos of the 66-year-old Hemsworth patriarch to their Instagram accounts, describing him as a ‘champion’.

‘Happy Father’s Day you big bloody champion!! Thanks for always being there. Love ya dad,’ Chris captioned the heartfelt post.

Despite his mega wealth, Chris has always remembered his beginnings, having paid off his father’s lifelong debts.
During an interview with Independent in 2015, Liam reportedly became teary when he recalled Chris calling his father and telling him to check his bank balance.
‘He [his father] called my brother Chris back and said, “I don’t know how to feel. Since I left home I have had debts and I thought I’d be paying them off until I died and have this weight hanging over me, and now to have them completely cleared”.’

Liam went on to say of his parents: ‘They are so happy now and able to spend more time with us. I would love to be able to do something for my parents like that.’
The Hunger Games star also revealed why he’s chosen to become an ambassador for charities, in particular the Australian Childhood Foundation.
‘If you want to be a good person who adds to society, you have responsibility. That is something I take very seriously,’ he said.
Liam’s role with the Australian Childhood Foundation is a cause close to his heart, with his parents having devoted their time to supporting children living with trauma.
