Hollywood stars Tom Cruise and Penelope Cruz have finally put paid to speculation that they were no longer an item, with an appearance arm-in-arm in Washington DC on Wednesday.
The celebrity couple turned out for the premiere of the IMAX Space Station 3D movie at the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum, and posed for the cameras before going in for the show. Tom, who turns 40 this year, narrated the IMAX production.
Tom and Pen had not been seen out-and-about in each other’s company for some time. The Vanilla Sky actor attended the Oscar ceremony alone – apparently out of respect for ex-wife and Oscar nominee Nicole Kidman – but his solo appearance inadvertently set off the rumour mill, fuelling gossip that the couple had called it quits.
The fact that Penelope purchased a $1.6 million, three-bedroom Manhattan apartment and moved out of Tom’s Beverly Hills digs only furthered the tittle-tattle.
Last week, 27-year-old Penelope didn’t mince her words when speaking of their relationship. “Tom and I haven’t separated, we’re not married and I’m not pregnant,” she told the Spanish media on a visit to her native country to promote the new Ralph Lauren fragrance, Glamorous.
