Tom Holland and Zendaya’s

Engagement Holland and Zendaya, who confirmed their romance in 2021, took their relationship to the next level when they got engaged in late 2024. The news was revealed after Zendaya debuted her sparkling five-carat diamond ring at the Golden Globes in January 2025.

Holland’s father, Dominic, later shared that the proposal had been carefully planned. Writing in a Patreon post, he revealed, “He had purchased a ring, spoken with her father, and gained permission to propose. Tom had everything planned out—when, where, how, what to say, what to wear.”

Wedding Plans Still on Hold
Although the engagement has delighted fans worldwide, the couple has yet to dive into wedding planning. Zendaya’s stylist, Law Roach, explained earlier this year that her busy filming schedule has delayed preparations. “The process hasn’t even started yet,” he told E! News. “Zendaya is working on so many movies. We have time.”
Despite the wait, Roach reassured fans that the big day will be unforgettable. “[They] really love each other and have for a really long time,” he said. “The fact that the world has been able to share in that love story, I think it’s really beautiful.”

From secretive beginnings to public milestones, Holland and Zendaya’s romance continues to capture hearts. Their playful yet deeply supportive bond has made them one of Hollywood’s most admired couples.
