ROYAL fans have reacted with excitement to Tom Cruise offering Kate his hand at the Top Gun premiere.
Royal commentator Victoria Arbiter said: “They’ve met so many big names, they’re not generally fazed by celebrity, but I think perhaps William knows Kate’s dying!”
The royal expert finished her light-hearted tweet with a crying with laughter emoji.
One Twitter user, @duchessangi, commented: “Tom is a very handsome man, and more distinguished with age. They are equally blushing… he is holding the future Queen’s hand, and she is holding Maverick’s hand.”

Another Twitter user, @Poshwonderland, said of William: “His face says it all. Bucket list check. Love it. Catherine deserves all the moments.”
A third, @sarahlustne, wrote: “I think William was jealous, who wouldn’t want to hold Tom’s hand!!”
Another Twitter user with the handle @JamieFr10016993 said: “Cruise is the one who’s dying. Catherine is exquisite!”
A royal fan account, @TRHDukeDuchess, added: “William knowing Kate is fangirling from the inside lol.”
Another, @Jazzyels27, said: “To be a fly on the wall when they get home, I can imagine William ribbing Catherine about this for some time.”
One more, @lorna_adair, added: “It’s a case of William the third wheel, Cruise is acting like a gentleman, Kate will be swooning on the inside.”
Kate, 40, and William, 39, dazzled as they attended the UK premiere of Top Gun: Maverick on Thursday.

The Duchess showed off her incredible figure in a full-length black and white dress.
She wore her hair sleek and straight around her shoulders and accessorised with a pair of dangly earrings.
Speaking at the premiere, Cruise said he had “a lot in common” with the future King.
He added: “We both love England, and we’re both aviators, we both love flying.”
