“We did the famous Christmas thing which happens every year is that Tom sends a Christmas cake, a coconut cake. One day, I received said coconut cake which said ‘Happy Christmas Henry, From Tom Cruise’ which is pretty cool by the way”

The Enola Holmes actor further continued,

“I don’t do healthy Christmas. Eventually, a friend came out to my house and saw the cake sitting there. They said ‘what’s that?’ and I said ‘oh, that’s the cake from Tom Cruise’

When faced with the assumption that the cake would probably be healthy, Cavill had left it unopened. But with a little push from his friends, Henry Cavill cut the box open and saw,

“Cut it open, it is the most luxurious, unhealthy cake. And so um, I then…ate the whole thing”

So Henry Cavill eventually broke protocol with his dietary restrictions when Tom Cruise brought him a cake for Christmas.
