With three divorces under his belt, it’s fair to say that Tom Cruise’s love life has had more drama than the average Hollywood romance.
Now it appears that the plot is about take yet another intriguing twist – and there’s something rather familiar about the leading lady in question.
According to reports in the US, the actor, 53, is getting ready to marry for the fourth time after falling head over heels for his 22-year-old British personal assistant.
Emily Thomas started working for Cruise only last year. And it’s perhaps not difficult to see what drew him to her.
With dark brown hair and hazel eyes, she bears a striking resemblance to Cruise’s most recent ex-wife, actress Katie Holmes.
The pair met when she was hired as Cruise’s on-set assistant for Rogue Nation, the fifth installment of his Mission Impossible franchise, due out next week.
They are rumored to have been a couple since late last year, and while this has never been confirmed, it is reported plans are already being made for them to get married.
A source tells Star magazine, ‘Tom has fallen head over heels for Emily, and she feels the same way. There’s even buzz in his inner circle that he might propose!’
‘Tom was so impressed with her, he made it clear he wanted her to work with him on all his upcoming projects,’ it was added.
In November, Us Weekly reported that he had a ‘crush’ on the pretty brunette.
‘He’s always flirting with her,’ a source maintained. ‘Most people on the film have noticed how into her he is.’
