Khaberni - The global star Tom Cruise made a sudden decision to leave his luxurious apartment in the heart of London, after feeling that his personal safety was threatened due to a rise in burglary crimes in the upscale area.
The apartment, overlooking Hyde Park and valued at 35 million British pounds, had been the star's residence since he purchased it in 2021, but it quickly turned into an empty unit after Cruise decided to return to the United States.
This move came after a bold armed robbery incident that targeted a luxury watch store near his home, where the thieves stormed the store using motorcycles and heavy hammers, brandishing bladed weapons at the guards before fleeing with dozens of valuable watches.
The incident, which took place in broad daylight, intensified Cruise's feelings of insecurity, especially with similar incidents recurring in the neighborhood in recent months.
Despite his attachment to British culture and his special relationships with the local community, the repetition of these assaults was enough reason for the star to decide to leave, as residents and employees observed his belongings being moved out of the apartment quickly.
However, Cruise leaves behind a legacy of memories in the UK, having appeared at public events with members of the Royal Family, leaving his mark at several film shooting locations, and receiving official recognition from the British Film Institute "BFI" for his contributions to cinema.
