Have these two gone from potential co-stars to potential husband and wife in the space of a few months?<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text module_class=”credit-name” _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”Black Han Sans|||on|||||” text_text_color=”#000000″ header_4_font=”|||on|||||” header_4_text_align=”center” text_orientation=”center” custom_margin=”||0px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”]

Tom Cruise and Ana de Armas have been spotted together a few too many times to believe they are just \u2018collaborating on a future project\u2019. Do prospective co-stars always attend celebrity birthday parties together? Or take their pets on each other\u2019s private helicopters? We\u2019re not so sure.<\/p>\n However, the two stars, who have been linked since February, are no longer just being trailed by romance rumours, there is now talk of an engagement too. When they were first spotted having dinner together in London at the start of the year, the rumours were swiftly shut down. Then they were spotted together again a month later travelling from Madrid to London in Cruise\u2019s helicopter with de Armas\u2019s two dogs, Elvis and Salsa. A month later still the duo attended David Beckham\u2019s 50th together, and now the rumours won\u2019t disappear.<\/p>\n Anyone sceptical about the pair, who have a very \u2018Hollywood-coded\u2019 25-year age gap, is surely starting to pay attention. Not only might they have been secretly dating this whole time, but an insider close to Cruise tells Grazia<\/em> he thinks this relationship could go the distance. \u2018Some of Tom\u2019s friends are cautioning him not to get too far ahead of himself, but that\u2019s just not his style. It\u2019s very similar to the way he romanced Katie Holmes,\u2019 the source says, \u2018he became quickly infatuated then spent every waking moment with her that he could until sweeping her off her feet with a romantic engagement.\u2019<\/p>\n If we’re talking Holmes, it’s worth noting that his engagement ring for his former wife was estimated to cost between $1.5-3million. Of course, with an estimated net worth of $20million, de Armas could easily gift herself a ring of similar calibre, but nontheless it’s a surprise gift we certainly wouldn’t turn down!<\/p>\n \u2018That\u2019s what he\u2019s planning right now,\u2019 they went on to add, \u2018and nobody in Ana\u2019s world believes she\u2019ll say no. She\u2019s been totally charmed by Tom; it really is a question of when they make this official versus if.\u2019<\/p>\n Diamond ring or not, both stars have busy summers ahead which is likely to put their newfound connection to the test. Cruise is busy promoting the final instalment of his most notable franchise, Mission Impossible \u2013 The Final Reckoning<\/em>, which is out on 23 May, while de Armas is set to star in the next John Wick film, Ballerina,<\/em> in June.<\/p>\n Cruise has also recently signed on to Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu\u2019s first English-language film since The Revenant<\/em>, which is out in 2026. It\u2019s set to follow \u2018the most powerful man in the world\u2019 as he \u2018embarks on a frantic mission to prove he is humanity\u2019s saviour before the disaster he\u2019s unleashed destroys everything\u2019. Meanwhile, de Armas\u2019s name is being thrown around as the potential lead for the Netflix adaptation of Taylor Jenkin Reid\u2019s 2017 novel, The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo<\/em>, which is expected sometime after 2026.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text module_class=”custom-quote” _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” header_2_font=”Libre Bodoni|||on|||||” header_2_text_align=”center” header_2_text_color=”#333333″ header_2_font_size=”40px” header_2_line_height=”1.2em” global_colors_info=”{}”] How will such busy schedules allow time to plan an impromptu wedding? That\u2019s where the Hollywood card comes in handy \u2013 with Cruise and de Armas\u2019s combined wealth and star power they can probably afford to pull together a luxury, sun-soaked wedding in less than a week with the right team around them. <\/p>\n Even if there is truth to this whirlwind romance, a proposal, let alone a wedding, would no doubt come as a surprise to their inner circle. Not least because de Armas appeared to be dating someone else three months ago. In February, days after Cruise and de Armas were first pictured having dinner in London, the Eden<\/em> actress was spotted holding hands with her then-rumoured boyfriend Manuel Anido Cuesta in Madrid. Prior to the Cruise rumours, she had been tied to the Cuban lawyer since November, and they had been pictured kissing and holding hands on several occasions. <\/p>\n While de Armas never publicly confirmed her relationship with Anido Cuesta \u2013 a pattern is forming \u2013 she never confirmed if it had ended either. After all, she vowed to keep her love life private after her highly publicised dalliance with Ben Affleck in 2020. One that culminated in Affleck being papped throwing a life size cardboard cutout of her in the bin after their breakup. In an interview with Elle<\/em> in July 2022, the actress described the Affleck debacle as \u2018horrible\u2019 and \u2018one of the reasons I left LA\u2019. She explained that the invasive paparazzi culture taught her that \u2018this is not the place for me\u2019 and said \u2018there\u2019s no escape. There\u2019s no way out\u2019.<\/p>\n What, then, must she make of these unrelenting rumours about her relationship with Cruise? She might have left LA, but they have followed her all around Europe and only seem to be escalating with every joint appearance \u2013 not least ones at events rammed wall to wall with A-listers. \u2018Tom was proud to have Ana on his arm at David Beckham\u2019s 50th,\u2019 Grazia<\/em>\u2019s insider continues. \u2018He was introducing her to everyone as his special lady friend and they were, by all accounts, extremely affectionate with each other the whole night. He\u2019s not screaming it from the rooftops just yet, but everyone knows he\u2019s in it for the long haul.\u2019 With that in mind, it\u2019s hardly surprising that the rumours have snowballed.<\/p>\n Apparently, they have even discussed starting a family together. De Armas is 37 and it\u2019s thought that a disagreement about wanting children is one of the main reasons why her romance with Affleck did not work out in 2020. Cruise might be 62 and have three children already \u2013 two with his second wife Nicole Kidman and one with his third wife Katie Holmes, who he is reportedly estranged from \u2013 but he is reportedly keen to have more if that\u2019s what de Armas wants. According to our source, his two elder children, Isabella and Connor Cruise, have even met de Armas and given their seal of approval. \u2018They\u2019re all in agreement she\u2019s a wonderful match for their dad,\u2019 they explain. <\/p>\n As for the \u2018future collaboration\u2019 rumours that were being pedalled a few months ago, apparently there is still truth to them too. De Armas has agreed in principle to star in one of Cruise\u2019s next projects, most likely a sequel to Days of Thunder<\/em>, but that no longer seems to be their primary reason for spending time together. \u2018They\u2019ve been enjoying dinners at his place in central London, taking spins on his private jet and going on romantic getaways across Europe,\u2019 reveals the source. \u2018It\u2019s the first time in years Tom has been this happy and confident in his dating life \u2013 the only concern for some is that it all seems a little too good to be true.\u2019<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider color=”#111111″ divider_position=”center” divider_weight=”2px” module_class=”custom-divider” _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”0px||0px||false|false” custom_padding=”0px||0px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_divider][et_pb_text module_class=”credit-texts” _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”|||on|||||” text_orientation=”center” global_colors_info=”{}”] Photos: <\/b>IMAGO<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Have these two gone from potential co-stars to potential husband and wife in the space of a few months?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":11,"featured_media":9854,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_et_pb_use_builder":"on","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-9853","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-feature"],"acf":[],"modified_by":"guestgrazia","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/grazia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9853","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/grazia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/grazia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/grazia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/11"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/grazia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=9853"}],"version-history":[{"count":9,"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/grazia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9853\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9881,"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/grazia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9853\/revisions\/9881"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/grazia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/9854"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/grazia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=9853"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/grazia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=9853"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/grazia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=9853"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}‘It’s the first time in years Tom has been this happy’<\/h2>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]
