Tom Cruise and Hayley Atwell have split once again - just weeks after it was suggested their romance had been rekindled.
However, this time, the relationship is broken forever, as the stars of Hollywood have realized that they are better as friends than lovers.
Reports first surfaced that 59-year-old Tom and 40-year-old Hayley had been dating in 2020 after they worked together on the set of Mission Impossible 7.

But the romance ended last summer - as speculation flared last month that they had reunited after Hayley appeared alongside Tom at the premiere of Top Gun: Maverick in London.
"Tom and Hayley's relationship was real. Despite some rumors to the contrary, it's never been just for the cameras, unfortunately it hasn't worked for them,' a source told The Sun on Sunday (June 12).

"They get along really well and have fantastic chemistry, so they quietly decided to give their relationship another try earlier this year," the source added. Mirror.
The source went on to suggest that the fact that their rekindled romance was made public scared the couple and caused them to split again, adding: "Now they've decided they're better off as friends."

Doubts of a reunion were raised in mid-May when Hayley joined Tom at a royal premiere for the Top Gun sequel in London.
'Hayley's last-minute decision to attend the star-studded event in London's Leicester Square shows just how close she and Tom have become again after splitting last year,' the source said at the time.

While both Tom and Hayley have remained tight-lipped about their reported romance, a source claimed last September that work commitments have caused their first split.
"It was a very intense period of filming together. They really hit it off – and obviously they're both Hollywood stars, so it was a good match. But as the last film ends, they have decided to go back to being friends," said a source close to the former couple.
"Their shooting schedules are very busy, and Tom has a bunch of other commitments coming up and is always shooting around in a private helicopter and plane, so that took its toll," the same source said. /telegraph/
