Inside the whirlwind romance of Tom Cruise’s ex Hayley Attwell as she gets engaged to music producer
TOM Cruise's ex Hayley Attwell is a bride-to-be after music producer Ned Wolfgang Kelly - the man she dated straight after the Mission Impossible hunk - popped the question.
It has been a whirlwind few months for British-American actress Hayley, 41, who The Sun this week exclusively revealed is engaged.
Last July, Hayley dumped Tom after the pair split for the second time.
The couple, who initially began dating in 2020 after meeting on the Mission: Impossible 7 set, went their separate ways in September 2021.
Yet after re-kindling their spark they then split again last summer after deciding they were "better as friends."
Shortly after the break-up it emerged Hayley had been on a series of cosy dates with self-styled pagan Ned.
