Some actors are born for a wild life of travel, parties and high-priced champagne. Others see acting as just a particularly awesome job. The second scenario seems to be the case for Hayley Atwell, who has starred in films ranging from Captain America to Christopher Robin.
While the level of her success is totally impressive, we hardly see the actress all twisted up in Hollywood’s tense scene of hookups and breakups. And if Ms. Atwell’s social media accounts are anything to go by, she is way more comfortable with a good book than a famous beau.
In fact, Ms. Atwell’s love life is completely on the DL for one major reason: she is not down to date another big movie star. Well, turns out that might no longer be the case. Is Hayley Atwell single? Is she married? Let's dive into what the actress has been up to when it comes to her lovelife.
Updated on September 18, 2021, by Michael Chaar: Hayley Atwell has been making strides when it comes to her acting career, however while she might be in the public eye, Atwell has kept her romances very private. Fans continue to wonder whether or not Hayley Atwell is single, or if the actress is married. Well, she was close to tying the knot! Atwell revealed she was datig a childhood friend from London who just so happened to be a doctor. Despite Hayley wanting to date outside of her industry, it appears as if her and mystery man are no more! Hayley Atwell is now being rumored to be dating major A-list star, Tom Cruise! While their romance is total speculation, they have been spotted out and about a few times, including their most recent attendance at Wimbledon together.
A Sweet, Low-Key Romance
The man who she reportedly fell in love with is hardly the typical Hollywood type. In fact, Ms. Atwell’s rumored boyfriend is totally unrelated to the movie scene and one hundred percent “normal.” He apparently likes to keep a low profile, as he himself is not accustomed to red carpet dates or bright flashing paparazzi lights. But who is the mysterious fellow?
As it happens, Ms. Atwell’s boyfriend is quite accomplished in his own right. We may not be seeing him in theaters anytime soon, but he has an advanced degree and works as a medical doctor. Swoon! The best part is that Ms. Atwell seems just as excited about landing her new man as we are. People New Zealand even quotes the actress “gushing” over her man’s career. “He’s a doctor,” she reportedly stated, “a medical doctor so he’s not in the industry.”
To keep tensions nice and high, the actress has still yet to reveal his name.
A Childhood Kind Of Love
Since this mystery doctor has nothing to do with the world of acting, some fans may be wondering how he and Ms. Atwell even crossed paths. After all, actors are often unable to engage with the typical dating scene— classic “meet cutes” are hardly a thing for people hiding their identities beneath enormous sunglasses.
The answer may come as a major shock to some fans. The mysterious medical practitioner and Ms. Atwell did not actually meet within the last few years. To the contrary, the two were well-acquainted since their childhood in London (yes, this 100% means that the doctor has a British accent!) and decided to take their relationship to the next level after reconnecting as adults.
Leaving The Past Behind
Despite the fact that Ms. Atwell has kept her man off of her social media, her posts give us an idea of what their daily life looks like. From what we can tell, the couple has gone above and beyond to respect the quarantine. Rather than share mask-free party pics à la Kardashian crew, the actress’ page shows that she doesn’t spend a lot of time outside her house. Instead, she and her man seem committed to staying safe from the virus. But how are they surviving their isolation?
Well, not well. Although her relationship remained extremely private, it seems as if Hayley is off the market following her reported split from the unknown knight in shining armour, however, she's managed to move on quickly!
Hayley Is Rumored To Be Dating Tom Cruise
Yes, you read that right! The Marvel actress is currently romantically linked to none other than Mission: Impossible actor, Tom Cruise! Tom has had quite the career in Hollywood, reigning as one of the biggest A-listers in the biz. The actor previously had serious relationships with ex-wives, Nicole Kidman, and Katie Holmes, however, he too has been on the market for quite some time.
Although their romance has yet to be confirmed by either Tom or Hayley, the two have certainly been spending a lot of time together. The two have been rumored to be dating for a hot minute now, and the rumors only grew more and more when Tom and Hayley were spotted at Wimbledon together.
