Every British Royal Tom Cruise Has Ever Met

In the fascinating realm where Hollywood meets royalty, few stars can rival Tom Cruise's encounters with British royals. If you're captivated by the allure of those types of tales, Cruise's journey through these unique intersections is sure to enthrall you.

Renowned for his Hollywood stardom, the "Mission: Impossible" actor's meetings range from unexpected to closely-knit friendships with some of the most important and beloved royals. Luckily, none of these relationships are remotely scandalous — unlike Cruise's biggest controversies, which include his involvement with Scientology.

Instead, Cruise's dynamic with the royals shows surprisingly down-to-earth behavior, like catching up on hobbies, watching sports, and even allegedly picking sides in the paparazzi-fueled drama between Prince Harry and Meghan and the royal family. Whether he's mingling at glamorous galas or helping with noble causes, Cruise's encounters with British royals paint a vivid picture of the lifestyles that top celebrities lead, where they effortlessly mingle with some of the most famous people in the world. Here's every British royal Cruise has ever met.

Tom Cruise has also met the delightful Prince George. The brief interaction took place at the 2020 UEFA Euro Championship final. Italy and England battled for the cup on July 11, 2021, hence the interest of the British royals and Cruise.

Unfortunately, England didn't emerge victorious and lost on penalties. Despite the disappointment, Cruise briefly chatted with Prince George and his parents, who were seated nearby. The pair had another run-in at Wimbledon in 2022. Once more, Cruise was seated close to Prince George, who had accompanied his parents. However, it is unclear if they actually chatted at this event.

Cruise's meetings with Prince George might make you wonder what his relationship with his kids is like. Reports state that he is pretty close with his two adopted children from his marriage with Kidman, especially since both of them are dedicated Scientologists. However, his relationship with Suri, his daughter with Katie Holmes, is reportedly based on child support, lacking true depth.

Tom Cruise's friendship with Prince William has undoubtedly extended to the lovely Kate Middleton. Cruise was an incredible host to the princess at the "Top Gun: Maverick" premiere, even taking her hand to help her up some steps. However, this action raised a few eyebrows, as it is an unwritten protocol to limit body contact to a handshake, per the DailyMail.

But to be fair, the "Edge of Tomorrow" star is just one more American celebrity who's broken this rule. Cruise and Kate met again at the 2022 Wimbledon women's final, which she attended alone. It's unclear if they exchanged pleasantries at this event, but we do know that Cruise sat only a few rows behind her.

Not surprisingly, reports claim that Cruise has taken a side in the hostility between the royal family and Prince Harry and the remarkable Meghan Markle. RadarOnline reports that Cruise chose to side with pals William and Kate. However, these reports could be false, as much of the drama between the Duke and Duchess of Sussex and the rest of the royal family is fueled by false reports and the paparazzi. The Sun also reports that Cruise flew a white chocolate coconut bundt cake from Doan's Bakery in Los Angeles to Kate and William in London.
