Hollywood can look forward to a new power couple, as it's been confirmed that actors Tom Holland and Zendaya are now engaged. 

The couple initially met back in 2016 on the set of “Spider-Man: Homecoming,” where they played love interests. Their friendship quickly grew throughout the filming of the movies, and fans started spreading dating rumors. 

However, the couple have kept their relationship extremely private up until 2021, when Holland confirmed their relationship. No recent relationship updates had been given regarding the couple- up until very recently. 

Zendaya arrived at the 2025 Golden Globes with a large diamond ring on the ring finger of her left hand, sending fans swirling into speculation. Those who looked closely knew it was an engagement ring rather than an accessory because all of her other jewelry was by a designer called Bulgari. However, the ring was designed by Jessica McCormick. Since Zendaya has worked as an ambassador for Bulgari for the past few years, she likely wouldn’t be allowed to wear a ring that wasn’t Bulgari with her all Bulgari look- unless it was an engagement ring.

Soon after Zendaya debuted her ring at the Golden Globes, it was announced by TMZ on January 6th, 2024 that a source close to the couple had confirmed the engagement rumors to be true. TMZ provided more details, reporting that Holland had allegedly popped the question sometime between Christmas and New Years, and that the proposal was simple but intimate. 

A source later told PEOPLE that Holland had been planning the proposal for a while and he knew he wanted to do it during the holidays, as Holland is looking forward to settling down and starting a family.

Shortly after Zendaya’s appearance at the Golden Globes, she then appeared at a screening for her 2024 film “Challengers” in Los Angeles, where viewers saw her constantly playing with or staring at her engagement ring. Fans later commented on social media that Zendaya seemed extremely happy and excited for this couple’s next chapter. 

Since the beginning of their relationship, the couple have chosen to remain extremely private on matters of their relationship, with the exception a few public outings and birthday posts via Instagram.
