Ana de Armas Dating History Includes More A-Listers Than Just Tom Cruise

Ana de Armas has always preferred to keep her personal life private, but in 2025, her love life is making headlines again—this time thanks to a high-profile connection with Tom Cruise. The two actors were first spotted together on Valentine’s Day, and most recently photographed hand-in-hand in Vermont, confirming what fans had long suspected. But the “Mission Impossible” star is not her only high-profile romance.

Tom Cruise

The rumors about Ana de Armas and Tom Cruise started quietly in early 2025, but it didn’t take long for them to grow louder. Their first public appearance was on Valentine’s Day, with photos showing the pair dining together in London. According to Daily Mail, the chemistry was obvious. By spring, Us Weekly reported that the two were indeed dating—but keeping it “very low-key.”

Interestingly, the match may have been orchestrated by a mutual friend: Penélope Cruz. Sources say the Spanish actress, who previously dated Cruise and is close to de Armas, introduced the two. Since then, Cruise and de Armas have reportedly been “taking it slow.” A source close to the couple told Us Weekly, “She isn’t rushing anything. She wants to enjoy it as it comes.”

By July, the speculation turned into confirmation when TMZ released photos of the pair holding hands while on a quiet trip to Vermont. For Cruise, who’s famously private post-Katie Holmes, and de Armas, who keeps her relationships off social media, this public sighting was a statement in itself.

Manuel Anido Cuesta

Before Cruise, de Armas briefly dated Manuel Anido Cuesta, the stepson of Cuban President Miguel Díaz-Canel. The two were first linked in November 2024 after being spotted kissing in Madrid. Their relationship quietly ended sometime in early 2025, according to She Knows.

Paul Boukadakis

Ana de Armas dated tech entrepreneur Paul Boukadakis for several years. The former Tinder executive reportedly met de Armas through mutual friends during the COVID-19 lockdowns, according to Page Six. The two kept things out of the spotlight, but by 2024, they had split.

Ben Affleck

Ana de Armas’ most public and talked-about relationship was with her Deep Water co-star Ben Affleck. The pair began dating in 2019 and quickly became paparazzi magnets. They went Instagram-official in 2020, vacationed together during lockdowns, and were often seen on walks in Los Angeles. But by January 2021, their whirlwind romance had ended.

According to People, lifestyle differences were a key reason behind the breakup. “She broke it off,” a source said. “Ana doesn’t want to be Los Angeles-based, and Ben obviously has to since his kids live in LA.” Despite their split, the relationship was widely covered and gave fans a rare look into Ana’s life during her rising Hollywood fame.

Alejandro Piñeiro Bello

Before her Hollywood breakout, de Armas dated Cuban artist Alejandro Piñeiro Bello. While their relationship remained mostly offline, Bello is known for capturing several iconic portraits of de Armas that went viral after she gained international fame. Their romance ended quietly before she transitioned fully into the U.S. film industry.

Franklin Latt

In 2015, de Armas was linked to Hollywood talent agent Franklin Latt. Though there were rumors of an engagement, nothing was confirmed. The relationship ended in 2016.

Marc Clotet

Ana de Armas was once married to Spanish actor Marc Clotet. The couple wed in 2011 in a quiet ceremony in Costa Brava, Spain, but divorced just two years later in 2013.
