The Love Life of the Legendary Cher

#24: Tom Cruise, The End

The romance faded naturally as Tom’s career skyrocketed after Top Gun. Cher was supportive but realistic—she’d seen how fame could consume people. Their lives moved in opposite directions, and they ended things on friendly terms. There was no heartbreak, just timing getting in the way.

Years later, Cher spoke fondly of him, saying he was a “great, great guy” and that she looks back on their time together with a smile. Their brief connection became part of Hollywood legend—a surprising match that proved Cher’s romantic life was anything but predictable.
