TOM'S FINALLY DATING AGAIN!

Inside the Top Gun star's secret four month romance with a Russian socialite

- 

He barely let her out of his arms. Tom Cruise “danced the night away” with Russian model and socialite Elsina Khayrova at a private party near Grosvenor Square in London’s posh Mayfair neighborhood on Dec. 2, says a witness. “They were inseparable and left together in the early morning hours. He seemed to be completely besotted by her.”

It’s about time he put himself out there again. “Tom hasn’t seriously dated anyone in more than 11 years,” a source says of the actor, who was shattered by Katie Holmes’ surprise divorce filing in 2012. The famous workaholic had trouble making time for romance, “and he told people he didn’t want to rush into anything. But he never gave up hope that he’d find the right match again. He’s thrilled to have found Elsina — there’s definitely a spring in his step these days!”
