Tom Cruise has made a name for himself in the entertainment industry as a talented and charismatic Hollywood actor. Known for films such as “Risky Business” and “Top Gun,” Cruise has graced our screens for decades. However, his personal life has often been as much a topic of discussion as his professional achievements.
Cruise’s romantic history is marked by three marriages and, notably, three divorces. Each of these relationships ended when his then-wife was 33 years old, a curious fact that has not gone unnoticed by fans and media alike. This pattern has led to speculation and intrigue, adding another layer to the enigma that is Cruise.
Beyond his marital history, Cruise is also known for his adherence to the Church of Scientology, a religion that has been the subject of controversy and debate. His faith has played a significant role in his life and has influenced many of his personal and professional decisions.
The church was originally established in Phoenix, Arizona, which interestingly lies on the 33rd parallel. In numerology, the number 33 is known as the “Master Teacher,” a concept that aligns with the philosophy of Scientology, which aims to uplift mankind through understanding.
Cruise’s first marriage was to actress Mimi Rogers when she was 31. The marriage was short-lived, and they parted ways within a few years when Cruise filed for divorce.
He then married Nicole Kidman, who was 23 at the time. The couple adopted two children, but the marriage ended in divorce a decade later. Cruise filed for divorce two months after the pair renewed their vows on their 10th anniversary. Cruise’s third marriage was to actress Katie Holmes, with whom he has a daughter, Suri.
Holmes filed for divorce when she was 33, citing irreconcilable differences. It was reported that Holmes was concerned about their daughter Suri’s increasing involvement in Scientology. The peculiar age pattern in Cruise’s divorces has not escaped the notice of internet users, leading to a flurry of comments and theories.
Some find the pattern eerie, while others compare Cruise’s alleged pattern to Leonardo DiCaprio, who seems to have a pattern of his own. A user pointed out the connection between Cruise’s belief in Scientology and his divorces, noting that he had to divorce his partner as soon as they reached the age of 33, a detail they found to be “creepy.”
Another user humorously suggested a unique strategy to evade divorce, advising, “I suggest you live like Leonardo DiCaprio, break up with her when she turns 24 or like Tom Cruise, divorce her when she turns 33 until you find the most submissive woman in the World after 40 then you settle down lol. [sic]”
A third user observed, “So Tom Cruise divorces or breaks up when the girl turns 33. While Leo never dated a girl or lasted with a girl of age 25. [sic]” They also amusingly suggested that DiCaprio idolizes Cruise. Since his last divorce at 49, Cruise hasn’t married again, and his love life has been shrouded in mystery. However, recent rumors suggest a new development breaking his so-called 33 rule.
The alleged new partner in Cruise’s life is Elsina Khayrova, a 36-year-old London-based Russian socialite and a mother of two. The 61-year-old actor has reportedly been spending significant time with Khayrova, often seen at her luxurious London home during the evenings.
Their growing closeness was further highlighted when they were spotted sharing a private moment at a party in London’s upscale Mayfair district last December. Recently, they attended a high-profile charity gala dinner in support of London’s Air Ambulance at the luxurious Raffles Hotel in February 2024.
Prince William was the guest of honor at this event. Although the “Mission Impossible” actor and his rumored girlfriend arrived separately, insiders reveal, “Tom has been staying the night at Elsina’s apartment. They enjoy hanging out together and do a lot of the things that normal couples do.”
According to the source, the relationship is now official, and it’s common knowledge among the socialite’s acquaintances that she and Cruise are a couple. They’ve grown considerably close over the past few weeks and are careful to avoid being photographed together to preserve their privacy.
The source also disclosed that the couple has had private dinners at several of London’s exclusive restaurants and have taken walks together in Hyde Park, near Khayrova’s residence, while in disguise. It’s said that Cruise is smitten with her, and they are practically inseparable.
Khayrova maintains an active presence on social media. She has over 16,000 followers on Instagram and frequently shares photos of herself and her children, a boy and a girl. Her posts receive comments praising her beauty. In one of her posts, her followers complimented her with comments like, “Beautiful smile,” “Magnificent,” and “Perfect girl with a beautiful smile.”
Khayrova was once married to Dmitry Tsetkov. Their paths crossed at an upscale bar in London’s Mayfair in April 2009, and a swift romance led to their marriage in September of the same year. The wedding occurred in The National Congress Palace in St Petersburg, a location often used by Vladimir Putin during his city visits.
The couple led a luxurious lifestyle, owning properties in Dubai, London, and Cyprus and indulging in extravagant holidays, luxury yachts, and a collection of cars, jewelry, and art worth millions. In 2020, Tsetkov purchased a home on the prestigious Wentworth estate in Surrey as a weekend retreat from the $20 million London home he shared with Khayrova and their two children.
Tsetkov has reportedly cautioned Cruise about Khayrova’s expensive tastes, claiming he spent over $11 million on clothing and over $2 million on handbags during their 11-year marriage. From his over $30 million Surrey mansion, Tsetkov advised that anyone involved with Khayrova should be prepared for her love for luxury.
Despite the costly divorce that Tsetkov claims reduced his fortune from over $240 million to over $60 million, he wishes Khayrova the best. Khayrova received the contents of her designer wardrobes and handbags, ranging in price from over $5,000 to over $40,000 each, as part of the divorce settlement.
