Ana de Armas finally broke her silence about her relationship with Tom Cruise during a candid appearance on Good Morning America Thursday.

The stunning 37-year-old actress has been quietly linked to the 62-year-old Hollywood legend for weeks, though neither had addressed the speculation—until now.

The pair first sparked dating rumors after being spotted out to dinner just before Valentine’s Day.

More recently, Ana was seen traveling alongside Cruise in his private helicopter, with exclusive DailyMail photos showing the actor looking positively giddy as he piloted them into London this past April.

During the GMA interview, Ana gushed about her upcoming action film Ballerina and praised co-star Keanu Reeves, as well as the intense stunts she performed.

But when host Michael Strahan brought up her connection to Cruise, she didn’t shy away.

‘You’re working with another big star, Tom Cruise, on another project that will lead you to do more crazy stunts,’ Strahan said.

‘It’s so much fun,’ Ana replied. ‘We’re definitely working on a lot of things.’

She added: ‘It’s not just one, but a few projects—with [directors] Doug Liman and Christopher McQuarrie and, of course, Tom.’

Flashing a big smile, she added, ‘And I’m so excited.’

Armas and Cruise have been getting serious in recent weeks, the Daily Mail has learned, with one of his A-list exes even granting approval for the unlikely romance.

It is understood Spanish actress Penelope Cruz – who dated Cruise from 2001 to 2004 – is ‘happy’ that her ex-boyfriend has found new love.

Cruz, 51, and Armas have been friends ever since they co-starred in the 2019 movie WASP Network.

‘Ana has said that Penelope is happy for her, she approves,’ an insider told the Daily Mail. ‘They know each other from the movie and also they have friends in common in Madrid from when Ana lived there for a while.’

‘Tom makes Ana feel safe and that is very important to her,’ the insider added. ‘She was flipped out by the fans and stalkers when living in Venice Beach [Los Angeles] so she moved to a remote part of Vermont.’

In 2022, Armas dropped over $7 million for a sprawling six-bed home in the Green Mountain State.

‘She loves being away from the crazy,’ the source explained. ‘She has been traveling with Tom to busy cities like London, but he always makes her feel safe because he is thoughtful and he has a ton of security. He never puts her at risk, she is completely taken care of when she is in his company.’

Friends believe the relationship could last, with our insider pointing to the fact that Armas does ‘not like to party’, prefering quiet nights at home like her decades-older boyfriend.

Though another source stressed that the pair are ‘taking it day by day’ and that Armas ‘does not give her heart away easy.’

‘Ana has a thing for older men and Tom fits the bill of her type. The proof is in the pudding. Being affectionate with someone is not something that Ana would do for a role,’ the second source added.

In November last year, Armas was linked to the stepson of Cuban President Miguel Díaz-Canel Bermúdez, with the pair stepping out for a loved-up stroll in Madrid the following month.

Despite receiving massive backlash over the relationship, the actress, who fled communist Cuba age 18, did not shy away from engaging in some PDA with him.

However, the relationship appears to have ended as swiftly as it began – with Cruise soon emerging on the scene.

In February, the pair were first spotted enjoying a dinner together – again, in London – on Valentine’s Day.

At the time a source claimed to the Daily Mail that they were not romantically involved. Indeed, the insider insisted that the evening out had been strictly business related.

‘Everything with Tom and Ana is innocent. They are hanging out to talk about future movies that they could do together,’ the source said.

Another source told the publication that the Mission Impossible star was keen to show Ana how well he can treat her, saying: ‘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.’
