In an exciting turn of events, Zendaya and Tom Holland, both 28, have taken their relationship to the next level by getting engaged! This news was first reported by 'TMZ' and later confirmed by 'PEOPLE' through a family source. Holland proposed during the holiday season at one of Zendaya's family homes, marking a significant milestone in their relationship. Those close to the couple were not surprised, as rumors of an engagement had been circulating for some time. "He's always been crazy about her. He always knew she was the one. They have something very special," a source shared. The couple plans to savor this moment and not rush into wedding preparations due to their busy work schedules.
Engagement details and public appearances
Zendaya recently made headlines at the 2025 Golden Globes on January 5, where she was spotted wearing a stunning diamond ring on her left hand. The ring is identified as a 5.02-carat East-West Cushion Diamond Button Back Ring from Jessica McCormack. This public appearance further fueled engagement rumors, which have now been confirmed. Holland had previously hinted at spending the holidays with Zendaya's family during a podcast appearance, keeping details under wraps. The couple has been a public favorite since their on-screen romance in the Spider-Man franchise, which eventually blossomed into a real-life relationship.
A relationship in the public eye
Holland and Zendaya's relationship has been under constant public scrutiny. Despite this, they have managed to keep many aspects of their romance private. Holland expressed in a 2021 GQ interview, "One of the downsides of our fame is that privacy isn't really in our control anymore." This sentiment was echoed by Zendaya in an August 2023 interview with Elle, where she emphasized the importance of "protecting the peace" in their relationship. Their commitment to privacy has only strengthened their bond, with both stars making concerted efforts to keep their relationship sacred.
Future plans and career focus
While the engagement is a significant step, both Holland and Zendaya are focused on their careers and personal growth. They have decided to enjoy their engagement without rushing into marriage. The couple's decision to take their time reflects their maturity and understanding of the demands of their professions. Holland has often spoken about the importance of keeping their relationship private, stating, "We both feel very strongly that that is the healthiest way to move on as a couple." This approach has allowed them to nurture their relationship away from the public eye while still sharing select moments with their fans.
