What do we know about Tom Holland and Zendaya’s marriage?
Tom Holland and Zendaya first fell in love while filming Spider-Man: Homecoming. The Spider-Man films have shown a weird trend over the years as all the Peter Parkers and their on-screen love interests ended up being romantically involved off-screen as well. However, other stars could not continue their relationship, while Holland and Zendaya are still going strong.
A source tells People that, unlike the previous Spider-Man couples, Holland and Zendaya might have actually made it to marriage- “There has been talk of marriage, and that is a reality.” In the latest interview with British Vogue, Zendaya spoke about how the Uncharted actor grew in his career before her eyes and handled the transition “beautifully”.
“We were both very, very young, but my career was already kind of going, and his changed overnight. One day you’re a kid and you’re at the pub with your friends, and then the next day you’re Spider-Man. I definitely watched his life kind of change in front of him. But he handled it really beautifully.”
The stars have amassed a worldwide fandom in a very short time and the fans earnestly hope for them to get together. They are one of the most favorite celebrity couples in town and it remains to be seen if we get to hear any official news about their getting together very soon.
Challengers is running in theaters near you.
