Tom Cruise Has a New Girlfriend
It looks like Tom Cruise is back on the dating scene. He is reportedly becoming closer to his socialite girlfriend, glamorous Russian Elsina Khayrova. The actor was also spotted spending nights at the 36-year-old’s swanky London apartment.
Sixty-one-year-old Tom and Elsina were spotted attending a glittering gala dinner last week in support of the London Air Ambulance Charity. The event was held at the 5-star Raffles Hotel where Prince William, the heir to the throne, was a guest of honor.
Tom and his new girlfriend arrived at the glitzy gathering separately. Still, their friends revealed that the two have been spending more and more time together. Apparently, the Hollywood superstar is a regular visitor of Elsina’s £10 million Knightsbridge apartment.
One source revealed that the two are now official and shared, “It’s well known within Elsina’s circle that she and Tom are now an item. They’ve grown very close over the past few weeks but take a lot of care not to be photographed together because they want to maintain their privacy.”
The same insider revealed, “Tom has been staying the night at Elsina’s apartment, which, as you can imagine, is a very beautiful place. They enjoy hanging out together and, despite their wealth, do a lot of the things that normal couples do.”
It was also reported that Tom and Elsina have dined privately in several exclusive London restaurants and enjoyed strolls together in Hyde Park, which is just a few meters from Elsina’s home. When both are in public, they usually go out in a simple disguise.
During the London Air Ambulance Black and White gala, Elsina posted pictures and a video of herself wearing a gorgeous black evening dress. The gala was a successful event, raising £1.2 million.
During the evening, Tom was seen chatting with Prince William. The Prince of Wales’ attendance was his comeback to public engagements following the abdominal surgery of his wife, Catherine, and the cancer diagnosis of his father, King Charles III.
Tom has been a long-term supporter of the monarchy. When the prince spotted the actor, His Royal Highness even joked, “I haven’t got my Top Gun slippers on.”
This was a reference to the father-of-three’s playful fashion choice during the Top Gun premiere. That night, William wore a pair of black loafers decorated with planes, a nod to the fighter aircraft used in the original 1986 movie.
As far as the love story of the Hollywood actor and the socialite, it’s believed that they first met in December during a party in Mayfair. At the time, they were seen canoodling. One guest gushed, “They were inseparable, clearly a couple. He seemed to be besotted with her.”
Elsina was previously married to 43-year-old Dimitry Tsvetkov, who claimed that their three-year divorce battle cost him a whopping £150 million.
Dimitry’s advice for Tom? “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. I’m happy for her; I wish her all the best,” he said.
