It’s one of the greatest mysteries of the year in celebrity gossip: Were Tom Cruise and Ana De Armas ever actually dating?
2025’s ultimate are-they-or-aren’t-they saga has indeed taken a few twists and turns. Despite reports insisting that the pair — who are also set to star together in a film from Mission: Impossible director Christopher McQuarrie — are “just friends,” speculation has run rampant with every snapped photo of potential PDA.
So what’s the truth? Well, a new report from People suggests that the so-called couple definitely aren’t a couple right now — and, as some have suspected, they may never have been at all.
A source close to Ana says that Tom has been a “dear friend and mentor” to her, and she “very much enjoys spending time with him.” But!
“She’s single, though, and has been for a while,” the source adds. “She stays in touch with Tom and they still have an upcoming movie project that she’s looking forward to.”
Seems like a definitive answer, then! We’ve reached out to Ana’s reps for further comment — if we hear back, we’ll let you know.
