Tom Cruise met his new girlfriend, Russian socialite Elsina Khayrova, in the most British fashion: over a cuppa tea.
A source tells Pvnew exclusively that the “Mission:Impossible” star met millionaire divorcee Khayrova when a friend brought her to one of his exclusive Sunday tea parties at his Hyde Park penthouse.
“Tom has been having tea parties on Sundays in London,” says the source. “He’s much more comfortable in London than in LA. He has butlers and homemade cakes and it’s all very British. Someone brought her.”
Khayrova was formerly married to Russian oligarch Dimitry Tsvetkov, who told the Daily Mail that their divorce cost him £150 million ($188 million) and that he shelled out £10million ($12 million) on clothes and £2million ($2.5 million) for handbags over their 11 year marriage.
Khayrova is reportedly the daughter of a Putin-allied politician.

Our source tells us Cruise’s tea parties attract the elite social.
The “Top Gun” stars so-called “top secret” soirees have made headlines in the past.
The Daily News previously reported that there was speculation that Prince William and Kate may stop by the exclusive afternoon events, and that all attendees — including staff — must sign non-disclosure agreements.
They also reported that spies in the lobby said they saw “lots of beautiful women coming and going from the apartment on Sundays.”
“Tom loves to blast the music loudly, the beats can be heard in the building, which is why he gives a tea party in the afternoon so no one complains about the noise,” a source told the pub. “Tom is always polite and considerate of his neighbors.”
In June 2022, Pvnew exclusively reported that Cruise was shopping for apartments in the UK after falling in love with London.
He was first spotted with Khayrova at a party at the beginning of December in Grosvenor Square where they “spent most [of] the night dancing” with each other on the dance floor.
A week later, he rented out an entire floor of the swanky London restaurant Novikov so they could dine privately on over $600 of lobster, seafood and sushi, reported The Sun.
The Daily Mail reported this week that the pair are now officially an item.
“It’s well known within Elsina’s circle that she and Tom are now an item,” an insider told the outlet.
“They’ve grown very close over the past few weeks but take a lot of care not to be photographed together because they want to maintain their privacy,” the source continued.
