Tom Cruise has been conspicuou­sly quiet in the romance department since his split from Katie Holmes eight years ago – but not any more! The Mission:ImpossibIm­possible star could hardly hide his gglee to be hanging out with his foformer costarstar Sofia Boutella at ththe CAA pre-Oscars party last wweek, and a well-placed insider teltells Woman’s

Dayy the pair have beebeen secretly dating for months.

“They took everyoneev­eryo at the party by surprise,” sayssay the insider. “When the cacameras weren’t turned their wway, they confirmed their relatrelat­ionship by sharing a kiss. ThenThenTo­Tom sweetly brushed her hair backback, took her hand and they sneaksneak­ed off together in a waiting car.”

Tom, 57, and Algerian-Algeborn Sofia, 37, met four yearsy ago on the set of TheMummy,Mu but it wasn’t until they rreconnect­ed at their co-star AnnaAnnabe­lle Wallis’ 35th birthdabir­thday party in London last SeptemSept­ember that sparks flew.

“Now Tom’s been going all-out to make SofiSofia part of his life,” says the ininsider.

The TopGun actactor has introduced the actractres­s to his children Isabella, 2727, and Connor, 25, who he shares wwith ex-wife Nicole Kidman. He has also whisked her off to Paris for a romantic getaway and gently nudged her in the direction of his Scientolog­y religion.

“Tom’s asked Sofia to accompany him to Connor’s upcoming wedding and she is smitten,” says the source.

But not everyone around Sofia is thrilled. “Her friends are worried she will be brainwashe­d into Scientolog­y,” claims the insider. “And her family is worried about the obvious age gap. They’ve urged her to seriously consider the ramificati­ons of dating someone 20 years her senior – including the fact he most likely won’t want to have any more children.

“But Sofia’s infatuated right now. She knows it’s a big step yet she’s even talking about moving into Tom’s Beverly Hills mansion later this year.”
