Tom Cruise seems to be settling into his relationship with Russian socialite Elsina Khayrova as they begin to take the big steps toward committing to each other. The Mission Impossible star has reportedly met her young children from her first marriage, and now, he might be looking to make this blossoming romance more permanent.
Calling the 61-year-old actor and his 36-year-old “happy,” a source told Us Weekly that they’ve “settled [in] with a well-heeled social circle, all of whom believe it’s a great match. Despite the 25-year age gap, they reportedly love to “talk for hours about world affairs, arts and culture, history [and] sports.” The dating situation has left Cruise feeling “very relaxed and content with his life right now” — and that’s why he might be thinking about another walk down the aisle.
While Cruise and Khayrova aren’t rushing into anything, it seems that the thought has crossed his mind. “Tom [has] never ruled out getting married again; it’s just that the circumstances haven’t been right,” the insider added. If the pair goes the distance, it will be his fourth marriage. He was formerly married to Mimi Rogers from 1987-1990, Nicole Kidman from 1990-2001, and Katie Holmes from 2006-2012.
In December, a different Us Weekly source claimed that Cruise introduced his adult children Isabella, 30, and Connor, 28, from his marriage to Kidman, to Khayrova. (Cruise reportedly has no relationship with daughter, Suri, 17, from his marriage to Holmes.) Isabella and Connor apparently gave their stamp of approval because they “are so happy to see that their dad has love in his life again.” After he was blindsided by Holmes in 2012, the insider shared that the Top Gun star took a step back from his love life. “He wanted to take his time and not rush into any relationships just for the sake of it,” they said. And it seems like Khayrova is the perfect fit after putting his love life on the back burner.
She had her own acrimonious divorce from Dmitry Tsetkov in 2022 which captivated international headlines for the astonishing amount of money they were fighting over. Her ex even sent out a warning to Cruise, noting to the Daily Mail, “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.” This could be Cruise’s most fascinating romance yet!
