Amid rumours that Tom Cruise, 63, is dating Ana de Armas, 37, Cruise’s ex-wife, Katie Holmes, made an eyebrow-raising move on social media.
Holmes, 46, appeared to like an Instagram post from the Daily Mail that read “Tom Cruise and Ana de Armas love affair confirmed” and included slides claiming they are “getting serious.”
One fan asked in the comments: “Did anyone else notice that Katie Holmes liked the post?”
“Celebs, sometimes they’re just like us, stalking and accidentally liking posts about their exes,” another fan joked on Reddit, while a third remarked, “lol… the girl was lurking.”

The Posthas reached out to reps for Holmes, Cruise and de Armas for comment.
Cruise and de Armas have not officially confirmed that they’re dating.
In June, a source told Page Six that the two have dined in a private room at the swanky members-only club Annabel’s in London “a couple of times over the past two months.”
“Tom looks enchanted by her. And she looks very happy with him,” the source claimed.
The Mission: Impossible alum and the Knives Out star first sparked dating rumours in February.
In May, de Armas announced she and the Risky Business actor were working on multiple projects together.

“We’re definitely working on a lot of things,” she said on Good Morning America.
De Armas, who has also been romantically linked to Ben Affleck in the past, added: “Not just one but a few projects with Doug Liman and Christopher McQuarrie… And I’m so excited.”
Liman worked with Cruise on 2014’s Edge of Tomorrow and 2017’s American Made. McQuarrie has collaborated with Cruise on several Mission: Impossible movies.
De Armas and Cruise will be in Liman’s horror movie, Deeper, which is about an astronaut who encounters something terrifying in space.
But in June, a source told People that the actors were “just friends.”
Holmes married Cruise in 2006.
Their daughter, Suri, now 19, attends college at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
In 2012, Holmes filed for divorce from the most famous Scientologist, and removed their daughter from the controversial religion.
Other figures who have left the church, including actress Leah Remini, have alleged that they’ve feared for their safety.
Before he passed away in 2021, former Scientologist Ron Miscavige, the father of Scientology leader David, told the Daily Mail that members of the church staff moved in with Cruise and Holmes before their split.
“That didn’t sit so well with Katie, of course, and it hurt the marriage,” he claimed.
“She and Tom had big differences about the way life should be lived.”
