Tom Cruise is reportedly dating socialite Elsina Khayrova, the daughter of a prominent Russian MP and ex-wife of a diamond-trading oligarch.The 36-year-old model was apparently seen with Cruise, 61, at a party in Grosvenor Square, London on Saturday (December 9).According to The Daily Mail, a source said they were “inseparable” and “clearly a couple”, adding: “He seemed to be besotted with her.”Neither Cruise or Khayrova have commented on the reports.Khayrova was previously married to Russian tycoon Dmitry Tsvetkov for ten years.

Their divorce was finalised in a High Court ruling earlier this year, where a judge accused Khayrova of being “guilty of sustained duplicity”, including lying over the possession of a handbag collection worth almost £1million.In an interview with The Telegraph, Tsvetkov said he learned of the alleged relationship between his ex-wife and Cruise when friends began contacting him after the article was published.The diamond trader, who has survived multiple assassination attempts, also said he previously had discussions with a Hollywood producer earlier this year, where he named Cruise as a potential candidate to play him in a film about his life.“After the judgement in August, a friend of mine who is a producer in Hollywood said, ‘Why don’t we do a movie?’ It would be about the three assassination attempts, about the divorce.

And I said ‘Fine but only if Tom Cruise can be the actor’,” Tsvetkov told the outlet.“When I was at school in Russia the guy was so popular.

I have enjoyed his movies and he is a great actor. I would make the movie like Mission: Impossible because that is how it’s happened to me.”Both Tsvetkov and Khayrova were born in Russia but have dual UK citizenship.
