Melissa Gilbert

Melissa Gilbert says that she dated Tom in the early 80s before he even became “Tom Cruise.”

“Actually, when I dated him he was Tom Mapother still. It was when he first moved to Los Angeles and I think I was 16, maybe, or 17?” she said during an appearance on Watch What Happens Live.

She added, “I did not have sex with him. We made out, but, honestly, there was no sex. He was a good kisser. But, you know, he was, like, a struggling, starving actor. I actually bought him his first set of dishes.”
