On September 8, 2022, Queen Elizabeth II died at the age of 96 after 70 years as head of state of Great Britain. A few weeks before her death, the Queen hosted a famous guest at Windsor Castle for tea, whom insiders say she got along well with. We’re talking about actor Tom Cruise, who even received special treatment during the visit.
According to the Sunday Times, the Hollywood star met the monarch this summer, shortly before the Queen left for her Scottish summer residence, Balmoral Castle, in late July, where she died of old age in early September.
Tom Cruise was allowed to land his helicopter in front of Windsor Castle
Actually, the two should have met in mid-May at the “A Gallop Through History” event, which took place on the occasion of the Queen’s platinum anniversary celebrations. However, the plans did not materialize and the British Queen was so disappointed that she invited Tom Cruise back shortly after.
When the meeting finally took place, the movie star was allowed to land his helicopter on the grounds of Windsor Castle, which is actually forbidden. He was then given an exclusive tour of the palace and was then allowed to drink tea with the queen. The two got along so well that they agreed to meet again for lunch. But since Queen Elizabeth died this summer, that has never happened.
The actor admired the queen
Tom Cruise was in the UK for a long time to film the latest “Mission Impossible” movie, which will be released in 2023. In the past, the actor found only positive words about the queen:
Now he will probably forever remember spending a special afternoon with the Queen, who sat on the British throne for 70 years shortly before her death.
