Tom Cruise and Ana de Armas’s brief romance reportedly ended weeks ago, but new details suggest the split didn’t go as smoothly as it may have looked from the outside. According to sources, Cruise has been telling friends that de Armas “wasn’t up to his standards.” However, insiders believe it is his way of saving face after the relationship did not turn out the way he had hoped.
Tom Cruise’s ego hurt after Ana de Armas breakup, claims source
Tom Cruise and Ana de Armas reportedly dated for eight months after meeting through mutual Hollywood connections. Headlines intensely covered their relationship after they were first spotted together on Valentine’s Day and later seen enjoying a summer getaway in Vermont. To those close to the couple, it looked serious — until it suddenly was not.
Some sources exclusively spoke to RadarOnline, with one telling the tabloid, “Tom’s spinning things to make it sound like he ended it — saying Ana didn’t live up to what he wanted. But people close to him know that’s just ego.” They added, “Really, he’s hurting. She was the one who stepped back, and it’s shaken him badly.”
Another insider claimed, “Tom tried to control every detail of Ana’s life, image, brand and career.” They added, “At first Ana saw it as him being attentive, but over time it just felt stifling.” That tension reportedly led to a clash between Cruise’s strict lifestyle and de Armas’ desire for independence. As such, the insider explained, “Ana’s very independent. She wanted a genuine relationship, not something that felt like an arrangement.”
Despite the “Mission Impossible” actor’s stance in public, those close to Cruise and de Armas claim the split was a surprise for him. It was de Armas who initiated it, and as a result, the relationship ended soon after. While neither Cruise nor de Armas has publicly commented on the breakup, sources claim the actor took it harder than he lets on.
