Tom Cruise ego 'dented' as he loses Shakira to Lewis Hamilton after flirtation

Tom Cruise is said to be taking the news of Shakira and Lewis Hamilton's new relationship badly.

The Mission Impossible star was said to have been "flirting" with the She Wolf singer shortly after her rocky divorce from ex-husband Gerard Pique after she claimed to have caught him cheating with his now-partner Clara Chia Marti.

It was reported that Tom had told his pals that he and Shakira “had incredible chemistry and taking it as a slam dunk they’d be dating in no time".

His close pal confirmed that the actor's ego had been "dented" after hearing that Shakira had rejected his advances and instead chosen to continue a potential romance with Tom's "buddy" and Formula 1 driver, Lewis Hamilton.

“It was a huge dent to Tom’s ego,” an insider told Radar Online. “It stung all the more because he considers Lewis a buddy.”

Lewis and Shakira are rumoured to be dating after the duo were spotted spending time together as Lewis races in the Spanish Grand Prix.

They were seen partying together with PSG football club stars Kylian Mbappe and Neymar and Lewis was said to have whisked Shakira and her pals off for a boat day after picking them up off the back of her £12million mansion.

Before their alleged romance, Tom had been attempting to win over the singer, but she had told his team "politely" that she wasn't interested in the star.

A source claimed that Shakira "begged" for Tom "to stop flirting with her," as the situation is “too much” for her so soon split with Gerard.

"She doesn't want to embarrass or upset him, but there's no attraction or romance on her part - she was just being friendly. She's flattered but not interested,”they added.

Despite being rejected by her, Tom was said to be "absolutely mesmerised" by Shakira and has been "struggling for years" to find the "right person" due to his "high standards" and refusal to settle for "second best" in a potential partner.
