Tom Cruise can rest easy after Florida penthouse survives Hurricane Milton unscathed

Tom Cruise can breathe a sigh of relief after his luxury Clearwater, Florida, penthouse stood tall against the potentially devastating Hurricane Milton.

The mega-storm, which meteorologists initially warned could reach a catastrophic Category 5, ended up sparing Cruise’s prized multimillion-dollar property.

The hurricane had been predicted to wreak havoc on the city, raising fears of a deadly storm surge and intense flooding.

But according to Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, the storm weakened just before landfall, easing concerns.

“The storm was significant, but thankfully this was not the worst-case scenario,” DeSantis said in a Thursday briefing.

The sprawling 20,000-square-foot condo, which Cruise has called home since 2018, features two floors of luxury, complete with a 39-foot rooftop lap pool and a private car elevator.

Cruise was in London when the hurricane hit.

He was spotted arriving in the UK looking concerned just a day before Milton made landfall.

The “Top Gun” star bought the lavish Clearwater pad in 2016 after selling his Beverly Hills mansion for a cool $39 million.
