Tom Cruise and Ana de Armas Step Out in London After Menorca Getaway

by

Rumors of Tom Cruise dating Ana de Armas have yet to self-destruct.

They appear to be inseparable during specific periods, such as the days leading up to Valentine’s Day and her birthday, and they often seem to be in romantic settings.

Within less than a month, the duo had a brief vacation on a yacht anchored near the Balearic Island of Menorca. Subsequently, they arrived in London, making a dramatic entrance, as they were photographed on July 25, stepping out of a helicopter.

They both wore casual outfits – a T-shirt and jeans for him, while she opted for leggings and a sweatshirt. Accompanying her were her dogs, Elvis and Sasha.

The speculation can be traced back to February 13, as they were seen walking together in London without attempting to hide it, even pausing to take photographs with admirers along the way.

In the ensuing months following our numerous encounters, I found myself engaged in some intriguing business discussions with the talented directors Christopher McQuarrie and Doug Liman.

It’s been revealed that they are set to feature in “Deeper,” a chilling underwater supernatural thriller helmed by Liman. However, one can’t help but wonder if there’s something more significant about their casual appearances.

So far, both actors have kept their enthusiasm confined to the professional realm.

Ana expressed joy and pride when TopMob News stated his support for the movie Ballerina at its June 3 premiere. Meanwhile, Tom enthusiastically declared that the John Wick spin-off was exceptional, using the phrase “kicked ass.

He enthusiastically praised Ana to Access Hollywood during the New York premiere of Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning in May, stating that she has exceptional skills for dramatic roles, is hilarious, and incredibly gifted. In his words, “She’s simply a fantastic actress.

Neither of them have an unfamiliarity with gossip suggesting romantic relationships with their co-stars. Tom Cruise has been frequently associated romantically with virtually every woman he’s been snapped with throughout his acting tenure.

Despite Ana having dated her “Deep Water” co-star Ben Affleck (which attracted such unwanted attention she relocated from L.A.), Tom was married to his “Days of Thunder” co-star Nicole Kidman and had a long-term relationship with Penélope Cruz, who starred alongside him in “Vanilla Sky”.

But a lot of the time people are just costars.

As we work on figuring out this specific match, take a look at the numerous women Tom has been associated with throughout his career. Some are from marriages, others were romantic relationships, and still more were co-stars in movies: all worth exploring.

Tom Cruise‘s career took off almost as fast as his love life when he got to Hollywood.

Melissa Gilbert, well-known actress from “Little House on the Prairie” and later SAG president, encountered Tom Cruise when he was just starting out as a struggling and impoverished actor. In fact, she was the one who purchased his initial set of dishes for him.

In 2014, she confessed on ‘Watch What Happens Live!’ hosted by Andy Cohen that they didn’t engage in sexual intercourse (she was approximately 16 or 17 years old at the time), but they did share kisses, and he was a skillful kisser.

Heather Locklear landed her breakthrough role in the series “Dynasty” around the same time Tom Cruise had his first major film appearance in “Taps” (1981). It was only natural that these budding stars went out on a date in the early ’80s, having met each other during an audition.

Later on, Locklear, a resident of Los Angeles, told Chelsea Handler that the date was essentially a kind gesture towards the fresh face in town. Despite his youthful exuberance, he wasn’t short on self-assurance.

In a similar fashion, the Melrose Place alum reminisced about an incident that brought to mind the iconic underwear dance scene from Risky Business. They were both dancing at a club when he suddenly started doing the splits, leaving her momentarily speechless. She opted to sit down instead of attempting to dance around him, saying, “I’ll just watch as you carry on.

In a turn of events, Rebecca De Mornay, his co-star from the movie “Risky Business,” was particularly taken aback by his actions. They began dating following the release of the R-rated romance film in August 1983.

In 1986, she shared with Rolling Stone that there was an unusual sincerity and moral integrity in him, which is hard to find. She also pointed out that children from fractured homes often possess a distinctive quality – a deep-seated sense of longing, as they seek love and affection when deprived of significant time with their parents. In her opinion, this describes Tom perfectly.

During his time in London for the filming of the action fantasy titled “Legend”, they remained as a couple. However, their relationship ended once he went back to America to work on the production of “Top Gun”.

In an interview with Rolling Stone back in 1986, Tom Cruise expressed that relationships can be challenging. He emphasized the importance of recognizing when you and someone else are no longer aligned, and having the courage to part ways. Instead of clinging together for comfort, he suggested addressing issues head-on if they aren’t working out and moving forward. This philosophy holds true in both personal relationships and business dealings for him.

When asked about the possibility of settling down, he shared that he doubts if marriage is an option for him at the moment. His current mental state doesn’t seem to align with it, as he values personal and professional space greatly. He explained that unlike waiting for a return call or promise to reconnect later, such commitments cannot be put on hold until he finishes his current endeavors. However, he expressed that he does enjoy being in a relationship.

It would have been difficult not to notice the pairing of Cruise and Cher, especially when they crossed paths in 2002 at the inaugural Entertainment Industry Foundation’s “Love Rocks” Concert.

However, it wasn’t until approximately 2008 that the renowned entertainer publicly disclosed her romantic involvement with Cruise, which occurred in the mid-’80s and had a 17-year age gap between them.

As I gushed to Oprah Winfrey, “I simply couldn’t get enough of him!” Mirroring De Mornay’s sentiments about his innocence, the singer shared a heartwarming memory, “He was a wallflower, admitting he felt awkward and overlooked in school. We had dinner at a New York restaurant once, and the waitress hailed from his old school. He confided that she never acknowledged him back then, but now, with fame on his side, he was the center of her attention. Our connection could have blossomed into a grand romance if not for my unabated infatuation with him.

In an episode of “Watch What Happens Live!” back in 2013, Cher placed Tom Cruise on her “top five” list of romantic partners she’s had throughout her life. Reflecting on their past, she noted that it was a relationship from long ago and neither of them ever discussed it, but she couldn’t explain why. During their time together, Cruise was incredibly private, maintaining secrecy about his personal life, which he still does to some extent, except for more recent times. Despite this, Cher confessed that she had deep feelings for him, finding him truly remarkable.

Cruise met Mimi Rogers in 1985 at a dinner party when she was dating a friend of his. 

They secretly got married on May 9, 1987, in upstate New York. Emilio Estevez served as Cruise’s best man at the ceremony. His mother, Mary Lee South, praised their new family member to People magazine, calling her “exceptional.

The actress known as Gung Ho was once married to a former Scientology counselor, Jim Rogers. It is reported that she played a role in introducing Cruise to this religion, providing him with support and guidance similar to taking him under her wing. This detail was shared by Cruise’s biographer, Wensley Clarkson, in an interview with Entertainment Weekly back in 2000. (Since then, Rogers has parted ways with the church.)

The actors announced they were divorcing in January 1990. 

In 1993, when Playboy asked about her failed marriage with Cruise, Rogers responded, “Let me set the record straight. Tom was contemplating monkhood at that time. Given his spiritual needs, marriage seemed incompatible. He believed he had to abstain from sexual relationships to preserve the sanctity of his talent. And I needed some adjustments.

In 2001, Rogers, who is six years older than Cruise, shared with the Telegraph that fame wasn’t a significant issue for him. However, what truly bothered him was the age-related comments. Certain tabloids frequently emphasized this difference and inflated it over time, making it seem larger than it actually was. If Tom Cruise and Rogers were still married, those tabloids might have portrayed Rogers as being in his sixties by now.

As a lifestyle advisor, I’d put it this way: In the whirlwind of Hollywood, I found myself cast alongside Tom Cruise in the thrilling racing drama “Days of Thunder” back in 1990. Following his divorce from Mimi Rogers, our paths intertwined, leading to a Christmas Eve wedding that same year.

On December 22, 1992, and similarly on January 17, 1995, they welcomed Isabella and Connor respectively into their family as their newborn children.

Apart from that, they appeared in two additional movies together: the 1992 historical epic “Far and Away” and the 1999 psychological thriller “Eyes Wide Shut”. They confessed later that filming was incredibly intense (and prolonged), which made Stanley Kubrick’s demise just a few days after he showed his final edit all the more heart-wrenching.

In his words, the 400-day journey with Kubrick significantly strengthened their marriage and deepened their friendship.

In the year 2000, Kidman expressed to Talk, “The only thing I can express is that I wish we’ll be together when we reach 80. I can’t guarantee that we will be, but if we aren’t, I’ll be incredibly saddened.

Instead, Cruise filed for divorce months later.

The representative stated on February 5, 2001, that due to the challenges arising from their different career paths which often kept them apart, they decided it was most suitable for both of them to part ways in a friendly manner at this point in time, as they announced their separation.

In an interview with Vanity Fair in October 2001, Cruise was asked about the reason his second marriage ended. He responded, “She understands why it ended, as do I. She is the mother of my children and I wish her well. Life takes unexpected turns, and sometimes you must confront the harsh truth. You do everything possible to make things work, but there comes a time when you just have to move on.

By late 2002, Kidman shared with VF, “I’m coming to realize now [the reasons for our separation]. At that point, I did not.

Upon their encounter, she shared with the publication that he had left her spellbound. She found herself head-over-heels, passionately smitten. And as is often the case when one falls in love, her previous aspirations for her life seemed insignificant. She exclaimed, “This is it!” and surrendered herself to the emotion wholeheartedly. She was eager beyond reason to start a family with him. Marriage didn’t matter to her; she just wanted to have a child with him. If given the chance, this is what she would have done.

After meeting on the set of 2001’s trippy Vanilla Sky, Penélope Cruz dated Cruise for three years.

They first appeared together as a couple at the August 2001 premiere of Captain Corelli’s Mandolin. Cruz explained on Good Morning America, “He invited me, and it was a unique moment for me that he chose to share this experience with me.

In the summer of 2003, Penélope Cruz stated that she was extremely content with her relationship [with Tom Cruise] and clarified that they were not engaged. Despite this, their relationship had some complications legally, as a story published by an Australian tabloid in June 2003 alleged that her wedding to Cruise had been postponed due to an affair. However, Cruz was able to secure damages and a retraction from the tabloid.

In January 2004, they parted ways, and they made this public knowledge approximately two months later. A source shared with People at that time, “Their romance had simply come to an end, and they chose to no longer be in a romantic relationship.

During the filming of “Vanilla Sky”, Cruise was already married. However, Cruz mentioned in an interview on “Good Morning America” that they didn’t start dating until later. He explained, “There’s no secret here and it’s a positive development.

In an interview with the Telegraph in 2008, she expressed that she had never developed romantic feelings for someone she was working with. Instead, any such relationships have come about after the work has ended. If a friendship arises, it might evolve into something more, but the outcome is always uncertain. It’s always a bit of a mystery, and you can’t really predict or plan these things.

Cruz married occasional costar Javier Bardem in 2010.

In a 2012 article published by Vanity Fair, Sofía Vergara was mentioned as one of several renowned actresses who reportedly caught Tom Cruise’s eye. However, the Church of Scientology and an attorney for Cruise disputed these claims, with the attorney describing the story as “sleazy.

During a 2011 interview with The Daily Beast, Vergara is said to have chuckled heartily when the interviewer mentioned not knowing much about dating Cruise. Her response was reportedly, “Let’s leave it at that! I’d rather not discuss that topic.

In February 2005, Scarlett Johansson, who appeared amicable with Cruise at an Ambassadors for Humanity gala in honor of Bill Clinton and supporting the Shoah Foundation, was noted alongside Vergara in a Vanity Fair article as one of the “famous, attractive actresses.” (It’s important to note that the church refuted any claims of matchmaking.)

Johansson expressed her disapproval in 2018, stating to The Hollywood Reporter that it’s degrading for someone to try out for a relationship. She also made clear that she strongly objects to any notion being spread that she doesn’t have the integrity to pick my own romantic connections.

The 2012 Vanity Fair article indicates that Nazanin Boniadi secretly had a relationship with Tom Cruise from November 2004 to January 2005, but ultimately, the actor and the Church deemed her unsuitable for him.

On their initial outing, as reported by VF, Cruise planned a personalized tour of the Empire State Building, followed by dining at Nobu and an exclusive ice-skating session at Rockefeller Center, that was exclusively opened for the event.

Initially, Boniadi followed Scientology, which is said to be the faith from where she was reportedly chosen to romantically involve herself with Cruise. However, she eventually parted ways with the church. It’s important to note that the Church of Scientology labeled this supposed mission as a non-existent “ghost project.

In simpler terms, Bert Fields, a longtime attorney for Tom Cruise (who unfortunately passed away in 2022), stated to TopMob News back in 2012 when the VF story was published, that it was essentially a repetition of old, worn-out falsehoods similar to those found in supermarket tabloids. He added that it was lengthy, dull, and untrue.

In 2013, when asked about Cruise by The New York Post, Boniadi responded, “I prefer not to discuss that matter. It’s something I’d rather avoid… As I mentioned, there are so many wonderful aspects of my life worth focusing on instead.

Following a rapid and romantic courtship, marked by Tom Cruise’s heartfelt professions of love for Katie Holmes on Oprah Winfrey’s couch in May 2005, the couple became parents to their daughter Suri Cruise on April 18, 2006.

Annie Leibovitz captured Suri’s first public appearance for the October 2006 cover of Vanity Fair. Subsequently, TomKat (Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes) exchanged vows at an Italian castle on November 18, 2006.

In an interview with MTV News in June 2005, Tom Cruise expressed that individuals will act as they choose regarding his exuberant feelings. He explained that one shouldn’t consider others’ opinions when it comes to sharing his life with a remarkable woman who he deeply respects. Essentially, he was saying, “I have nothing to hide, I’m content, and I’m genuinely happy.” He was simply expressing his joy, friend!

Speaking about potentially collaborating with Holmes, he expressed his enthusiasm, saying, “I can’t wait to act alongside her; she’s incredibly talented. It’s just a matter of time before we work together.

In June 2012, Holmes initiated the divorce process, and since she had a prenuptial agreement prepared by her legal father Martin Holmes, everything was resolved amicably in just two weeks.

Although Cruise occasionally took Suri to destinations such as Disney World for outings, the youngster mostly resided with Holmes. In time, mother and daughter moved from Los Angeles to New York.

In a conversation with People magazine in October 2014, Holmes expressed that she doesn’t want her marriage to Cruise to be the defining aspect of her life or her identity. She emphasized that she wouldn’t like to be recognized solely by this relationship. Instead, she wanted it known that she was an actor before, during, and continues to be an actor now.

Following his divorce from Holmes, there were whispers that Tom Cruise might have been romantically involved with Cameron Diaz, a few years after their collaboration in the 2010 film “Knight and Day”.

It wasn’t accurate that they had issues, but the duo, who starred in “Vanilla Sky” together, actually worked very well with each other during the filming of the humorous action-thriller.

On The Graham Norton Show, Diaz shared that she spent her 40th birthday in August 2012 by coincidentally running into Penélope Cruz, Javier Bardem, Tom Cruise, and his son at a hotel. They had dinner together, and at midnight, she announced she was turning 40. Everyone took pictures and said their goodbyes, and since then, Diaz hasn’t seen them again.

She continued by saying, “However, it suddenly turns out that I’m in a serious relationship with him, and he’s pursuing me relentlessly!

In 2014, a gossip spread like wildfire claiming that Cruise was in a relationship with Laura Prepon. The buzz about their blossoming romance was the hot topic among the cast and crew of “Orange Is the New Black.” However, it was later discovered to be false, as representatives from both parties firmly dismissed the rumor.

It’s amusing how people often fill in the blanks when they don’t know the truth, as Prepon told She Knows. For instance, they assume that I’m currently dating Tom Cruise, which isn’t the case. And there are rumors that he disapproves of my role in OITNB, given that I play a lesbian character and I am a Scientologist.

She added, “This is false. Where are they even getting this stuff? It’s unbelievable to me.”

Back in 2017, it’s said that Tom Cruise became quite fond of Vanessa Kirby, following her portrayal of Princess Margaret in the series The Crown.

The British actress may not have made things clearer when she shared with The Times of London that she was secretly dating someone. However, it was up to her to reveal this information (and it was eventually revealed to be Callum Turner, her boyfriend in 2019).

As it turns out, TopMob News also confirmed that this rumor wasn’t true. And when Rebecca Ferguson, portraying the shrewd White Widow, made her debut in the 2018 film “Mission: Impossible – Fallout”, her captivating screen presence did all the talking for her.

Actress Hayley Atwell, known for her roles in Marvel films, underwent the Kirby treatment during the filming of her part as cunning thief Grace in “M:I – Dead Reckoning”. She will also appear in “The Final Reckoning” in 2025.

However, as speculations circulated regarding a romantic link between the actress and Cruise, she sought guidance from him herself, asking for suggestions on handling the overwhelming intrusion into her personal life.

In a conversation with The Independent in 2023, Atwell expressed her sentiment as follows: “Gosh, there’s some strange gossip circulating, and it just doesn’t sit right with me. It feels a bit unclean, a little seedy, even grungy. This isn’t who I am.” She questioned, “Why are people jumping to conclusions or attributing things to me about my professional relationship with my colleague and superior?

When she discussed it with Cruise, she pointed out, “He typically responds with something like ‘You already know who you are. You understand your purpose. And that’s all that truly matters. It doesn’t concern me what others think of you, as long as you align with yourself and your moral compass.’

Spending time together in the days leading up to Valentine’s Day and a woman’s birthday might unintentionally fuel speculations about romantic involvement.

Ana de Armas shared on Good Morning America in May 2025 that she’s been enjoying talking about upcoming collaborations with Tom Cruise, as well as directors Christopher McQuarrie and Doug Liman, who have worked with him frequently.

About Cruise, he’s been following the movie career of the Cuban actress. At the London premiere of M:I – The Final Reckoning, he informed TikToker Javier Ibarreche that he had watched her John Wick spin-off film, Ballerina, and expressed his enthusiasm by saying it’s simply fantastic!
