She’s been hailed as the world’s most beautiful woman, while he is Hollywood’s freshly divorced heart-throb. Together they make a stunning team. But it has been something of a mission impossible to get either Penelope Cruz or Tom Cruise to talk about their passionate romance, even after they officially admitted to being an item.

The chemistry between the Spanish beauty and America’s highest paid sex-symbol is electric, but what exactly is the spark?

In an exclusive interview with Penelope after a gala she gave to raise the profile of the Sabera Foundation of Calcutta, a children’s charity which she has been closely involved with for years, the actress revealed to HELLO!, “Tom is one of the most generous people I know. He has an enormous heart, is a very intelligent man and has a great sense of humour. He’s a very special man.”

And Tom, who co-hosted the event declared: “Penelope is a very generous person, someone who likes to help others, and it’s one of the things I admire most about her.”
