Tom Cruise and Ana de Armas’s Complete Relationship Timeline

Dating rumors have been following actors Tom Cruise and Ana de Armas for several months after the two were seen on a number of seemingly platonic outings. However, it was recently reported that things are getting romantic.

Here’s the alleged new couple’s complete relationship timeline so far.

The night before Valentine’s Day, De Armas and Cruise were seen having dinner in London, both dressed casually and leaving with takeout. A source told People that the meeting was about “potential collaborations down the line.”

A few days later, de Armas was photographed holding hands with her rumored boyfriend, Manuel Anido Cuesta, in Madrid.

On March 14, de Armas and Cruise were photographed at London Heliport together. A source told People at the time that they were not romantically involved and were joined by director Doug Liman.

On April 29, just before de Armas’s birthday, TMZ grabbed pics of them in a helicopter with Cruise at the wheel. The next day, in footage shared on X, formerly Twitter, they were seen walking in the park together. That night, they were seen at Mexican restaurant KOL in the Marylebone district of London.

On May 1, they were seen in London again, this time at David Beckham’s 50th birthday party, followed by dinner at Core in Notting Hill. A source at the event told Page Six that the night seemed to be platonic.

The eyewitness stated that the pair “had a blast” that night, adding that “they came together and had a great night and clearly enjoy hanging out. But I couldn’t say any more than that…I’ve no proof it’s romantic.”

Another source said that they had been drawn together as friends after finding a mutual professional interest in stunts. The actress’s film Ballerina, set in the same world as John Wick, was heavy on stunts, while Cruise is releasing his new action-packed film, Mission: Impossible The Final Reckoning.

“I’m sure if they’re friends he’s mentored her. I’m sure she’s called him for advice,” the source claimed. “I’m sure they conversed on [things like] ‘this is how the stunt guys do it.’ I’m sure he gives her a lot of tips—he’s a legend in the stunt world.”

The source added that de Armas has been very committed to her work on the set of Ballerina, especially fight choreography.

“She’s awesome. She works hard. She’s very well thought out. She’ll call you on your BS. She always double checks. Why are we doing this? How does it really work in real life? She’s very inquisitive about everything we’re doing,” they said. “She’s really fun. She wants to do a good job. She does a lot of her own fights.”

In mid-May, de Armas did an interview with Good Morning America and was asked about working with Cruise.

“It’s so much fun [doing action projects],” she said. “We’re definitely working on a lot of things. Not just one, but a few projects with [directors] Doug Liman and Christopher McQuarrie and, of course, Tom. And I’m so excited.”

That same day, a source told Us Weekly that Cruise has a romantic interest in de Armas, claiming he was “super smitten” with her.

“They’ve gone out on some dates, and it’s very low-key,” the source added. “It’s in the early stages, and he’s been courting her. [He is] really into her.”

The Ballerina star is supposedly interested as well, but is being “more cautious.”

“She isn’t looking for anything to move too fast; she’s taking it really slow,” the source added.

Cruise and de Armas were photographed vacationing together in Menorca, Spain, in mid-July. Photos published by Hello! show the actors relaxing on a boat as they cruised around the island. De Armas wore a white cover-up dress over a bikini, while Cruise opted for a blue shirt and shorts.

On July 18, a source speaking to People, a source confirmed her split with Manuel Anido Cuesta, the stepson of Cuba’s president, Miguel Díaz-Canel Bermúdez. However, the source also stated that their connection is “not romantic.”

On July 30, they were photographed holding hands in Woodstock, Vermont, where de Armas owns a home. They were seen the night before at Oasis’s Wembley Stadium concert in London, according to TMZ. The outlet reported their activities included visiting a national park, having ice cream, and shopping.

A source told People that week that Cruise and de Armas’s relationship has changed, although the insider did not say whether it has become truly romantic.

De Armas “really enjoys spending time with him,” the source said. “They’ve become incredibly close, and Tom continues to be a huge support—both personally and professionally.”

The insider also said she wanted to bring him to Woodstock.

“Ana loves Vermont,” the source explained. “It’s her place to rest and recharge. She was excited to host Tom and show him around. She took him to all her favorite spots.”

A source speaking to Entertainment Tonight on August 2 said that there was truth to the story that Cruise and de Armas shared a “working relationship,” however “their connection grew stronger.”

“Over time, it became clear that what they have goes beyond just friendship or a working relationship,” the source explained, saying they were working on projects together, especially the upcoming thriller, Deeper. Spending time together led to something more.

⁠“Tom thinks she’s incredibly smart and beautiful. Ana has always enjoyed their time together and the flirty attraction between them,” the insider added.

After their trip to Vermont drew public attention, a source told People on August 6 that the actors “had a great break together.” The insider added that de Armas “enjoyed being the host” and “loves spending time with Tom.”

The source also noted that both stars are shifting their attention to Deeper: “Now, they are still very focused on kicking off their new project together. It’s a very important project for both of them. They’ll have an intense shooting schedule, but they are ready.”

“It’s her first time working with Tom and she wants to bring her best,” the source added. “She knows Tom has high standards on set, but she's ready for the challenge.”
