The relationship between Tom Cruise and Ana de Armas reportedly ended after the Mission: Impossible star’s unsuccessful attempt to bring the actress closer to Scientology. According to insiders, Cruise hoped to make her a “church-approved bride.” This was reported by Baltimore Chronicle with reference to RadarOnline.com.
Sources close to the former couple revealed that their romance fell apart due to Cruise’s deeply rooted religious beliefs, which clashed with Ana de Armas’s independence and skepticism toward the Church of Scientology. Cruise, insiders say, was convinced that Ana was everything he needed — intelligent, beautiful, and capable of walking beside him both professionally and spiritually. However, when the actress began distancing herself from the religious aspects of his life, their relationship took a drastic turn.
According to people familiar with the situation, Cruise’s need for control and structure didn’t align with de Armas’s free-spirited personality. “He likes everything to be done a certain way, but Ana was never someone he could mold. That’s when he realized she wasn’t the obedient, church-approved partner he had envisioned,” said a source close to the actor.
Despite the breakup, those close to the pair insist there was no animosity. Their chemistry simply faded over time, and both decided it was better to part ways amicably. “They handled the split with real maturity,” the insider noted. “They both understood their relationship wasn’t built for the long term and chose friendship over forcing something that wasn’t working.”
