PRINCE William and Kate have found their way onto the world’s most exclusive Christmas gift lists – courtesy of A-lister Tom Cruise.
The action star annually sends special coconut cakes from Los Angeles via a private jet to superstar pals and co-stars.

Tom cemented the future king as a close friend by having one flown over and couriered specially with a message for the royal couple – who he met when hosting a private screening of Top Gun 2 last year.
The Mission: Impossible actor, 60, is known for sending pals a £38 White Chocolate Coconut Bundt Cake from Doan’s Bakery in Woodland Hills every year.
And adding William and Kate to the list puts them alongside Hollywood’s elite talent, with a source saying: “This is pretty much the Who’s Who of who matters in global entertainment and showbiz.
“Adding the royals to the list just shows how their star power travels.”
But his friend James Corden claimed that Tom has never even tried the now-famous dessert, which he said tastes “unbelievable”.
Last year, HOAR told how Tom arranged for 300 Christmas cakes to be shipped over from LA to the UK on his private jet as a gift for Mission: Impossible 7 crew members.
At the time, a source said: “Tom wanted to give the team on Mission: Impossible a treat for Christmas and decided that only cakes from his favourite bakery in LA would do.
“He organised for the shop to make 300 cakes especially and they were then flown back to the UK on his jet.
“It is extravagant, but Tom is an incredibly generous person and he wanted to do something special for everyone who has worked on the movie with him.”
If means Tom would have splashed out £11,400 on the cakes alone, before the cost of the private jet.
