Tom Cruise is apparently dating Scientologist Laura Prepon now

 
Of course there are rumors they're getting married. At least the Scientology thing wouldn't be a problem.

We don't know how reliable the source material here is, but the Europress is saying Tom Cruise is finding a lot of free time to spend with former Orange is The New Black star Laura Prepon. That's much more constructive than, say, spending that time with his daughter Suri.

Brit magazine Grazie (via the Irish Independent) is saying the couple had dinner at the Manor Hotel in L.A., which sounds kinda ritzy. But wait til you hear the lengths he went to in order to impress her.

"He had her picked up in a vintage car, knowing it was one of her favourite, and had pre-ordered a vintage bottle of 1979 merlot, which was on the table when she arrived," a source said. "They spent three hours laughing and joking. It's clear Tom is smitten and after the date he was on cloud nine. They had their second date at the restaurant too, meeting for Sunday brunch, and then she accompanied him a few days later to a dinner party at John's (Travolta) home."

The pair are seeing a lot of each other these days, so they must be getting along. The fact they're both Scientologists isn't hurting things either, another source says.

"(Tom is) the happiest he has been since his divorce from Katie (Holmes)," the person said. "Tom has known Laura for a few years now and they are all in the same social group that includes John Travolta and his wife Kelly Preston. He's always been fascinated by her and, since seeing her in Orange Is the New Black, that has turned into an attraction. So he bit the bullet and asked her out."

Fascinated by her? What, in That '70s Show? Wow, how long has it been since we made two references to that show in one day? He has still managed to date younger, since he's 51 and Prepon is 33. Holmes turns 35 on Dec. 18, but she was 33 when she left Tom. Maybe he's just picking up where he left off.
