Rumours that Tom Cruise and Ana De Armas are an item continue to fly as the Mission: Impossible star reportedly spent a huge amount just to get her to the airport.
While neither actor has spoken about their possible romance, they have been spotted together at David Beckham’s lavish 50th birthday bash as well as enjoying a stroll in London.
And it seems the Top Gun star, 62, is determined to impress the Blonde actor, 37, by spending more than £4,000 to drop her at Heathrow Airport via his private helicopter so she could make her flight to New York City.
Ana was seen arriving at the airport in the helicopter, smiling as she walking through the airport donning a casual blue denim jeans and white t-shirt ensemble with a long tan coat.
The Sun reports that Cruise, who is currently promoting the latest Mission: Impossible film The Final Reckoning, spent £4,850 to charter the vehicle, and £3,812 for Ana to use the airport’s VIP Windsor Suite.
An insider told the publication: ‘Tom wants Ana to know she can have the best of the best and doesn’t think twice about the bill.
‘He’s a total gent and just wants to do right by Ana. If that means splashing the cash then so be it.’
It’s not the first time Ana and Tom have taken to the skies together, as last month the rumoured lovebirds were spotted enjoying a cosy helicopter ride at Farnborough Airport.
Accompanied by her two dogs, Ana was travelling with Tom from Madrid, and they both appeared to be in high spirits as they landed in London.
In March, the pair was snapped at London Heliport, having arrived back in London after using Tom’s aircraft the day before.
The pair were reportedly accompanied by director Doug Liman on the outing, who also joined them in their April helicopter ride.
It’s speculated that the pair could be set to collaborate, but the name of the project they are working on was not specified.
The month before, on Valentine’s Day, the duo was snapped on a night out in Soho, London. Ana was seen holding takeaway bags, and the pair were seen hopping in a taxi together.
At the time, a source told People that the stars were dining with their agents and ‘discussing potential collaborations down the line.’ It was also noted that the pair ‘appeared to have no romantic connection, just friends.’
It comes as Tom made a rare comment about his ex Nicole Kidman, whom he was married to from 1990 until 2001, and starred alongside in Stanley Kubrick’s thriller Eyes Wide Shut.
In an interview with the British Film Institute’s (BFI) Sight and Sound magazine, Cruise said of making the film: ‘I flew out to his (Kubrick’s) house and I landed in his backyard. I read the script the day before and we spent the day taking about it. I knew all of his films.
‘Then it was basically he and I getting to know each other. And when we were doing that, I suggested Nicole play the role (of Alice). Because obviously she’s a great actress.’
