Inside Tom Cruise's secret love nest: Mission Impossible star, 61, spends romantic nights with glamorous ex-wife, 36, of Russian oligarch in £10m luxury London apartment

   

This is the exclusive £10 million London apartment where Tom Cruise has been spending romantic nights in with his glamorous Russian socialite girlfriend, MailOnline can reveal.

Cruise, 61 has been spotted recently visiting Elsina Khayrova, 36 at her stunning home in Knightsbridge with the two enjoying time together in the luxury love nest, which is made up of four bedrooms, three reception rooms, a walk-in wardrobe, dressing room and offers stunning views over Hyde Park.

It is located in one London’s most exclusive apartment blocks called The Knightsbridge, which is close to Harrods and offers five-star facilities including a spa for residents, landscaped gardens, a business centre and underground parking.

Neighbours told MailOnline that they had spotted Cruise coming into the building on ‘several occasions’ as he made his way up to Elsina’s 3,000 sq ft apartment, where she has been living for the past six years.

The stunning apartment was decorated by Ms Khayrova and her ex-husband and boasts four bedrooms and three reception rooms 

One said: ‘He comes in through the front entrance, says hello to all the security staff and doesn’t make a big fuss. Having a big name like Cruise in the building is not a big deal for us because there are a lot of high profile living here or visiting.

‘This building is all about discretion. That’s what you’re paying for in addition to the wonderful facilities.’

The Hollywood actor and Ms Khayrova are first believed to have met last December during a party in Loulou’s in Mayfair, an exclusive private members club where they were seen canoodling.

Friends have claimed that the two have ‘grown close’ since then.

In addition to spending time at Ms Khayrova’s apartment they have also dined privately at a number of exclusive London restaurants and have also enjoyed strolls together through Hyde Park, while in disguise, which is close to her home.

The apartment was purchased by Ms Khayrova and her ex-husband, Russian oligarch and diamond and coal tycoon Dimitry Tsvetkov, 43 for £10 million in 2017.

The couple then spent another £3.5 million refurbishing it, appointing 1508 London, one of the country’s most exclusive interior design companies which specialises in luxury property projects.

They moved into the apartment in 2018 but as the marriage started falling apart Mr Tsvetkov moved out in October 2020 when he filed for divorce.

Ms Khayrova continued to live in their luxurious London apartment while he moved permanently into Dawn Hill, their £27 million Surrey mansion, where he still resides.

The couple had an extensive property portfolio worth more than £50 million and also owned homes in Dubai and Cyprus which has since been divided following their divorce.

After news of her romance with Cruise emerged, Mr Tsvetkov exclusively told MailOnline how he had spent an astonishing £10million on clothes and another £2million on handbags for his ex-wife during their tumultuous 11-year marriage.

He said: 'Irrespective of whoever she's with, Tom Cruise or anybody else, they should be aware that she likes the finer things in life and has expensive and luxurious taste. Tom should keep his eyes and wallet wide open.'

But he added: 'I'm happy for her, I wish her all the best.'

Ms Khayrova is the daughter Rinat Khayrova, a leading Russian politician who is worth an estimated £5 billion and is a close ally of President Putin.

Last week, Cruise and Ms Khayrova both attended a glittering gala dinner last week in support of London's Air Ambulance Charity at the five-star Raffles Hotel where Prince William was guest of honour.

Cruise and his new love interest arrived at the glitzy event separately, but a source told MailOnline: 'It's well known within Elsina's circle that she and Tom are now an item.

'They've grown very close over the past few weeks but take a lot of care not to be photographed together because they want to maintain their privacy.’

They continued: 'Tom has been staying the night at Elsina's apartment, which as you can imagine, is a very beautiful place. They enjoy hanging out together and despite their wealth, do a lot of the things that normal couples do.'

Ms Khayrova posted pictures and a video of herself in a stunning black evening dress while attending the London Air Ambulance Black and White gala which raised £1.2 million.

Cruise was pictured chatting with Prince William who jokingly recalled his stylish fashion choice from the 2022 premiere of Top Gun: Maverick.

The Prince of Wales, 41, made a return to public engagements at the glitzy gala following the news of his father, King Charles III, cancer diagnosis.

Cruise is a long-term supporter of the charity organisation, and on spotting the actor, William quipped: 'I haven't got my Top Gun slippers on.'

The father-of-three was referring to his playful fashion choice at the Top Gun premiere - a pair of black loafers decorated with planes, reminiscent of the fighter aircraft used in the original 1986 action movie.
