Their publicists confirmed it last week, but here is pictorial evidence that Penelope Cruz is the new woman in Tom Cruise’s life. The 27-year-old Spanish actress flew into Fiji to spend some time at plush resort the Wakaya Club, just a couple of days after the most powerful actor in Hollywood arrived.
Penelope, the star of Captain Corelli’s Mandolin, took advantage of a short break in the filming schedule of her new film to hop on a plane and chill out with her new companion. The two basked on the 2,220-acre private island, which boasts 12 staff per person, and swam in the tropical seas.
But all too soon it was time to go. While Tom, a garland of flowers round his neck, posed for photos with the Fijians, Penelope sneaked into the private jet and waited for her friend to join her before the plane took off and returned to Hollywood.
The revelation that Tom and Penelope are dating is said to have come as a total shock to Nicole Kidman, Tom’s estranged wife. She reportedly told a friend: “He flat out swore to me up and down that there was nothing going on. He obviously had her waiting in the wings and just waited until he started looking like a nice guy again (to begin the romance).”
Tom and Nicole's quickie tomandpen becomes final next Wednesday.
