“I’ve known Tom a long time and he has always been so private. I’ve never seen him like this before — he’s gone,” Winfrey says.

The 42-year-old actor and Holmes, 26, were first photographed together in Rome last month. In a recent interview on “Access Hollywood,” Cruise gushed that Holmes is “magnificent.”

Cruise was previously married to Mimi Rogers and Nicole Kidman. Holmes and actor Chris Klein recently called off their engagement, after dating for five years.

Both have summer blockbusters opening next month. Cruise stars in Steven Spielberg’s “War of the Worlds” and Holmes co-stars with Christian Bale in “Batman Begins.”
