The gorgeous 22-year-old assistant who has Tom Cruise, 53, smitten

Is Tom Cruise about to pop the question to his 22-year-old assistant? According to recent reports, it certainly would seem so.

Speaking about Tom and his British assistant, Emily Thomas, a source revealed to Star magazine that “Tom has fallen head over heels for Emily, and she feels the same way. There’s even buzz in his inner circle that he might propose!”

According to the magazine, the pair have been seeing each other ever since the end of 2014 and are totally “smitten”.

The 53-year-old Jerry Maguire star met his new assistant and rumoured love interest in 2014 when he hired her to work as his right-hand woman on his new film, Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation.

The insider further revealed that “Tom was so impressed with her, he made it clear he wanted her to work with him on all his upcoming projects.” They have already worked together this year on the upcoming film Mena.

“He would only leave her side long enough to shoot his scenes, then he’d be right back by her side,” the insider divulged. They also admitted that “She’s super caring with him.”

This would by no means be the first time that the scientologist has proposed to a woman he has only recently fallen in love with.

In 1987 Tom popped the question to Mimi Rogers but their marriage fell apart in 1990. The same year he met Nicole Kidman on the set of Days of Thunder and it wasn’t long before the pair tied the knot.

However, Tom did wait a while before proposing to his third wife, Katie Holmes. The Ray Donovan star became pregnant with their daughter Suri before the couple tied the knot in 2006. They divorced three years ago in 2012.
