Tom Cruise seems to have found genuine love once again, 15 years after his divorce from Katie Holmes, as reports suggest a serious romance with Elsina Khayrova, 36.
Rumors initially surfaced late last year, indicating Cruise’s admiration for the Russian socialite after they were spotted together at a party in Mayfair, London. Reports at that time emphasized their apparent inseparability.
Cruise’s name had previously been linked with Columbian pop icon Shakira and Mission:
Impossible co-star Hayley Atwell, but those rumors did not hold much credibility.
New reports, however, suggest it’s time to put such gossip to rest, as insiders reveal that Cruise and Khayrova are officially a couple. According to a source cited by the Daily Mail, it’s well-known within Elsina’s circle that she and Tom are an item, growing very close over the past few weeks. The couple takes great care not to be photographed together to maintain their privacy, but the insider claims that Cruise has been staying at Khayrova’s $12 million apartment.
The source adds that Tom and Elsina enjoy spending time together, doing many things that normal couples do despite their wealth. Despite their closeness, the couple has chosen to keep their relationship private and has not been seen posing for photos together.
Khayrova, a former model with British citizenship, divorced her business tycoon ex-husband, Dmitry Tsvetkov, last year. Her name gained attention in 2022 when she was ordered to pay a substantial fee of £117,000 ($149,500) to a company that had installed fountains in one of her and her ex-spouse’s homes.
Tom Cruise, with three marriages under his belt, was previously married to Mimi Rogers from 1987 to 1990 and to Nicole Kidman for 11 years between 1990 and 2001. His most recent marriage was to Katie Holmes from 2006 to 2012. Since the split with Holmes, Cruise has remained single.
According to the Daily Mail, Khayrova’s ex-husband had a warning for Tom Cruise or anyone else considering a relationship with his former partner: “Irrespective of whoever she’s with, Tom Cruise or anybody else, they should be aware that she likes the finer things in life and has expensive and luxurious taste. Tom should keep his eyes and wallet wide open,” said Tsvetkov, expressing happiness for her and wishing her all the best.
