Victoria Canal, a 25-year-old Spanish musician, has dismissed rumors of a romantic relationship with 62-year-old actor Tom Cruise, calling the speculation 'bonkers'. She clarified on Instagram that they are merely friends, with Cruise serving as a mentor, and expressed disbelief at the attention from tabloids. The rumors gained traction after their public appearances together following their meeting at the Glastonbury festival, where Canal performed with Coldplay. Canal humorously acknowledged that being identified as a 'Spanish-American singer' rather than a 'one-armed pianist' was a silver lining to the situation. Despite the gossip, she reaffirmed her respect for Cruise, stating he has been encouraging and supportive. The speculation was fueled by Cruise’s invitations to Canal for events related to his film projects, though she emphasized that their relationship is platonic.
