Looks like Tom Cruise may have another new girlfriend in 2024.
Feels like a bit like being on a roller coaster when talking about the women in Tom’s life – and that’s after you take into account the ex-wife who shades him and the daughter who curses his name.
As of now, Tom has been linked to 3 different ladies in 2024 alone, with the latest gal pal getting the benefit of seeing the more gentlemen side of Tom, if reports are to be believed.
So who is he dating now? Let’s dive in:
Tom Cruise’s New Girlfriend: Is He Dating Victoria Canal?
By the summer of 2024, all eyes were on Tom and the stunning Spanish-American singer/songwiter Victoria Canal.
At just 25, Victoria is already incredibly accomplished, playing piano and singing with global acts like Coldplay, Hozier, and Leslie Odom Jr. Her accomplishments are made that much more impressive when you know he was born without her right forearm due to amniotic band syndrome, a congenital disorder, cause unknown.
But back to Tom: the pair reportedly met at Glastonbury festival near the end of June. Since then, they’ve been seen out together multiple times. First, there were photos of Tom treating Victoria to a helicopter ride at Battersea Power Station heliport in London.
Soon after, Tom treated his new “gal pal” to night no one could forget. The pair caught a Bruce Springsteen concert together and after, the pair went backstage to meet the Boss himself.
It’s worth pointing out here that Victoria calls Tom the “most random friend I’ve ever made,” hinting their relationship is only platonic.
Time will tell if things will remain that way.
Tom Wanted To ‘Explore’ Relationship With Monica Barbaro
And in truth, Victoria may very well be just a friend, since the woman Tom has had his eye on is rather busy at the moment.
Earlier in the year, it sounded like Tom Cruise was eager to move on with Monica Barbaro.
“Tom thinks she’s stunningly beautiful,” a source tells In Touch, adding, “He’d like to explore a relationship with her.”
In addition to co-starring with Barbaro in Top Gun, Cruise has apparently been using his star power to further her career.
Cruise pulled strings to get Barbaro cast as Joan Baez in the Bob Dylan biopic A Complete Unknown. The film’s directed by his longtime friend James Mangold.
“Tom’s mentored younger actors before — men and women. It’s a very rewarding process for him,” says the insider.
Of course, it sounds like Tom might be seeking something more than the satisfaction that comes with helping a young artist reach new heights.
“People around Tom believe they’re a great match. But he genuinely wants her to succeed,” the source adds.
The insider says that Monica is “flattered by the attention.”
His Last Relationship Before that. Fizzled Out Fast
It seems, however, that Monica wants to focus on her career at the moment. “She wants to prove that she’s deserving of the role,” says the source.
If Tom is looking for love again, it’s a short turnaround from his last relationship.
For a few months at the top of 2024, Tom was getting serious with Russian sociallite Elsina Khayrova. There were even some reports that he had met her kids.
However, despite the rumors, the pair were never seen out publicly together. Additionally, with a near 30 year age gap, it became clear that the romance didn’t have much going for it.
“They weren’t gelling and realized they weren’t romantically compatible,” a source revealed to US Weekly.
Mark that as another relationship for Tom that just couldn’t work. And speaking of which…
Tom’s Relationship With Suri Cruise: What’s Going On There?
Tom has perhaps bigger problems. He’s dealing with some bad press thanks to reports that he still wants nothing to do with Suri, his daughter with Katie Holmes.
These days, Suri is preparing to head off to college. While Tom has made time for his other children, he hasn’t extended the same courtesy to his only biological child.
In fact, he skipped her high school graduation to attend a Taylor Swift concert. Quite the burn.
Should come as no surprise then that Suri has officially dropped “Cruise” from her name, now that she’s 18.
That’s one girl who can’t be impressed by his star power!
