Victoria Canal Responds to Speculation About Relationship with Tom Cruise
“I would be like, ‘Ooh, there’s some weird rumors, and it feels base, it feels a little dirty, it feels grubby, it’s not what I’m about,'” she told The Independent in July 2023. “Why are things being assumed or projected onto me about my relationship with my work colleague and boss?”
And it was particularly upsetting because the rumors involved “people in my actual life, my personal life, who have to be on the receiving end of that. It becomes invasive.”
But Hayley was thankful that she had Tom there to help her navigate the situation.
“When I’ve talked to him about it,” she said, “he’d be like ‘You know exactly who you are. You know what you’re about. And that is the only thing that matters. It doesn’t matter what people think of you, if you are in integrity with yourself, if you know what your value system is.'”
