Tom Cruise has gone to great lengths to keep his personal life private since his divorce from Katie Holmes in 2012. However, it seems that the star has a new love interest and things seem to be getting serious as reports indicate that Cruise is now an ‘item’ with Russian Socialite Elsina Khayrova. The two make sure to keep things close to the chest as they are seldom seen in public together in hopes of protecting their privacy. So who is Elsina Khayrova?

Who is Elsina Khayrova?
Khayrova is a Russian model and socialite. She used to be married to Russian oligarch Dmitry Tsetkov whom she battled in a 3-year divorce. Tsetkov claims that the split cost him $150 million. He also claims that in the 11 years they were married, he spent £10 million on clothes and £2 million on bags. He stated:
Irrespective of whoever she's with, Tom Cruise or anybody else, they should be aware that she likes the finer things in life and has expensive and luxurious taste. Tom should keep his eyes and wallet wide open.
I'm happy for her, I wish her all the best.
Cruise and Khayrova’s latest public event
The couple both made an appearance at the London Air Ambulance Black and White gala. They showed up separately. Cruise could be seen talking to Prince William who later thanked the Hollywood star for supporting the organization. This was the Prince's first public event since his father and wife were hospitalised. Khayrova on the other hand, posted pictures and videos wearing a black evening dress while attending the gala.
According to a source who spoke to the Daily Mail, the couple have dined privately at a number of exclusive restaurants and occasionally take strolls in London’s Hide Park while concealing their identities. The sources further added:
Tom has been staying the night at Elsina's apartment, which as you can imagine, is a very beautiful place. They enjoy hanging out together and despite their wealth, do a lot of the things that normal couples do
It seems as though the new couple are deliberately trying to keep prying eyes away and are so far succeeding. However as the relationship gets more serious, one wonders if they will eventually be together in a Premiere or award ceremony. The couple most likely met in December at a party as they are both based in London. According to a source who spoke with the Daily Mail:
They were inseparable, clearly a couple. He seemed to be besotted with her
