Tom Cruise’s rumoured new love interest Victoria Canal has dismissed ‘completely bonkers’ reports that she is dating the Mission Impossible actor.
The Spanish pianist, 25, first met the Hollywood star, 62, in Glastonbury after she performed with Coldplay before the pair went on to become, in Victoria’s words, ‘random friends’.
Following claims that romance blossomed with Tom inviting her to the set of Mission Impossible 8 and even flew her to the Twisters premiere in a helicopter, the stunner has now been forced to set the record straight.
Taking to Instagram Victoria, who was born without her right forearm due to amniotic band syndrome, posted a lengthy statement alongside a snap of herself giggling.
It read: ‘Guys, this is literally bonkers, but apparently the tabloids think I am dating Tom Cruise. I’m deceased. Let’s just stop this in its tracks – I’m sorry to bum u out but I am not dating the man, albeit a lovely person & artist’.

‘Lol never thought I would have to clarify that out loud in my life. y’all. if you’re gonna write me up @pagesix use a better picture damn’
Before adding: ‘(huge perk: first time I’m Spanish-American singer Victoria Canal and not one-armed pianist whose name remains unmentioned!!!! there’s always a win somewhere, thanks Tom)’.
Later taking to her Instagram Stories she said: ‘In all seriousness guys, Tom has been nothing but a lovely and encouraging person and mentor, much like Chris Martin, my dad, my music teacher and other wise people that have learned a lot from living’.
And again, I am friends with all kinds of people who are very different to me, you learn a lot if you’re open to life brining you those teachers’.
It was previously revealed that Tom’s colleagues were stunned when Victoria visited the set of Mission: Impossible 8 in Oxfordshire.
She spent most of the day there, setting tongues wagging that the pair may have struck up a romance.
‘It is all very bizarre,’ said a crew member. ‘Tom invited Victoria to watch him film for the whole day and that is just not something he does for his random friends.
‘When she turned up, there was much gossip: is she Tom’s new romantic partner? It might have seemed unlikely that they would become anything more than friends but they are pretty much inseparable.
