He’s turning 60 in two weeks time. Yet Tom Cruise looked more youthful than ever as he touched down at Gimpo International Airport in Seoul, South Korea on Friday.
The actor, 59, displayed his muscular physique as he waved at the crowds at fans who had gathered to see him.
Tom’s impeccably toned arms were highlighted by a beige polo shirt paired with navy trousers. The actor, who was in the country to promote Top Gun: Maverick, added to the look with a pair of aviator shades.
Tom seemed in high spirits as he chatted away with fans lining the entrance of the airport. The Golden Globe winner is still on the promotional trail for his new movie, but will take a break in a few weeks as he celebrates his milestone birthday.
The Hollywood megastar will allegedly be hosting one party in Britain and another across the pond in America. According to The Sun, Tom will first throw a party in the luxurious members club Soho Farmhouse in the Cotswolds. He will then fly across to the US in private jet to celebrate with his American friends, only a few days later.
The guest list for both bashes is set to be very exclusive and A-list, with the likes of David Beckham and Prince William invited. A source told the publication: ‘In Britain the invite list will be a Who’s Who of his circle – they’ll be asking the likes of David Beckham, James Corden, his co-star Simon Pegg, and obviously his partner Hayley Atwell will be there for both. It’ll be very A-list, but also a lot of the team who he has worked with on Mission Impossible and Top Gun because they’ve become his closest friends.’
‘He also has such a good relationship with Prince William these days it’s possible he would come along too, he’ll be invited – but that’s a bit more dependent on the royals’ commitments.’
Despite the statement that Hayley Atwell will be coming, it has recently been reported that the couple have split for the second time. The Top Gun: Maverick star and his Mission: Impossible 7 co-star, 40, have parted ways after recently reconciling following their first split in September of 2021, according to The Sun. A source told the publication, ‘Unfortunately it hasn’t worked out for them. They have now decided they are better as friends.’
The insider also revealed that the fanfare around the couple after going public was too much to handle. ‘They get on really well, and have fantastic chemistry, which is why they decided to quietly give the relationship another try earlier this year. What was working behind closed doors didn’t work out so well when it was made public, and the fanfare around them as a couple exploded again,’ the source stated. The source also insisted that the couple’s romance was ‘genuine’, stating, ‘In spite of some rumors to the contrary, it was never just for the cameras.’ The pair began dating in 2020 after meeting on set of Mission: Impossible 7, and were first reported to be an item in December.
Tom, who plays Ethan Hunt in the famous franchise, and Hayley, who portrays a character known as Grace, spent much of the last year shooting the movie across the UK, as well as in Rome, Venice, and Norway. Though the two had never expressly confirmed their romance, they were said to have become ‘fairly inseparable’ after they ‘hit it off from day one’ on the film. However, by September, the relationship was said to have ‘run its course’ for the pair. An insider told The Sun about the breakup: ‘It has been a very intense period of filming together. They really got on well – but as the latest film winds down they’ve decided to go back to being friends.’
