Tom Cruise and Ana de Armas are on everyone's lips. But this time it's not because of the release of a new movie or a major award. The reason that has made them international protagonists is a new scandal that mixes top-level, love, and thousands of euros spent.
Specifically, it has come to light that the American has spent more than 10,000 euros to ensure his girlfriend had all the comforts to reach the London airport. The place from which she had to take a flight to New York.
Tom Cruise and Ana de Armas stir up controversy again
The love story of Tom Cruise and Ana de Armas was revealed in February when the first images of them together came to light. Many were skeptical about the romance, thinking it was pure marketing, but others believed the relationship was real. However, time has been clearing doubts.
They have been seen together on several occasions, including their appearance as a couple at David Beckham's exclusive birthday. With a 26-year age difference between them, their relationship has been marked by comments, controversies, and criticisms. But the real scandal has now come with a millionaire gesture from him toward his girl.
Apparently, Tom Cruise has shelled out more than 10,000 € for Ana de Armas to travel comfortably from her home on the outskirts of London to Heathrow Airport. The transfer was not exactly conventional. A private helicopter picked her up at the actor's residence and dropped her directly at the airport, avoiding traffic jams and delays.
But that was not all, because once at that transport hub, the actress had access to the exclusive Windsor Suite. Yes, a high-level VIP area that features eight luxurious private rooms and personalized services. The suite also offers a menu crafted by Michelin-starred chef Jason Atherton.
All this, before taking a commercial flight to New York. A city where she continues to work on new film projects.
This expense, completely unnecessary in the eyes of many, has caused a great controversy on social media and in the media. The cost of the transfer and luxuries far exceeded the price of the plane ticket itself. A difference that has led to accusations of ostentation and waste at a time when social sensitivity to these issues is high.
The public image of both, especially Tom Cruise's, has begun to suffer. Many have criticized the fact that the actor prioritized a millionaire romantic gesture over discretion. Something that is especially valued today among Hollywood's big stars.
Another front open for Tom Cruise and Ana de Armas
But this gesture doesn't seem to have been a mere whim. Several media outlets claim that Tom Cruise is completely devoted to Ana de Armas, both personally and professionally.
In fact, it has been leaked that the actor and producer wants her to be the female lead in his next big movie. And he is not willing to spare resources to achieve it.
Cruise's insistence has sparked rumors about how much the relationship between the two is influencing the actor's creative decisions. Some believe he is mixing feelings with business, which could jeopardize both the film's success and his reputation in the industry. A new controversy that, if confirmed, would add more pressure on the couple.
To all this is added the perception that the relationship between Tom and Ana is, in part, a publicity strategy. Something that has been commented on several times by media analysts and followers.
Time will tell if this love story withstands media pressure and scandals. For now, the only clear thing is that they continue to be much talked about. And not precisely for their movies.
