At the 2024 Golden Globes, Zendaya strutted the red carpet in a custom burnt-orange Louis Vuitton ball gown with a rock spotted on her ring finger. Many were in awe and curious if Zendaya was engaged to Tom Holland. However, Tom did not make an appearance at the Golden Globes, as he was not nominated for an award.
“It’s not my moment, it’s her moment, and if we go together, it’s about us”, said Holland in an interview with Vanity Fair.
Tom and Zendaya recently announced and confirmed their engagement in current interviews. Tom revealed that he proposed to her during the holiday season at her childhood home in a private area. Yet many have thought they were engaged already even before the Golden Globes, due to them having been dating since at least 2021. They announced their relationship with Holland posting an Instagram post of Zendaya saying in the caption, “My MJ.” back in 2021.
Neither confirmed the engagement until Zendaya walked the red carpet with her diamond ring. “I didn't mind the world knowing the news, although I didn't go out of my way to announce it either,”shared Zendaya an interview with Us Weekly. She was excited to show off her ring but added, she “didn't think people would notice but didn't care either way.”
But she was wrong about people not caring because the whole world freaked out, including myself. Many were more excited this time rather than the last few rumors, such as pictures of her with her wearing rings, yet none being an engagement ring. Although, this “rumor” had evidence and later soon was confirmed by both of the stars.
Now, we all are asking the big question: when are they getting married? In a recent People article, Zendaya and Tom Holland both stated that they are not going to rush the wedding, due to both working on projects at the moment and also just wanting to take their time to enjoy things and their engagement with each other. But one thing is official-Tom Holland and Zendaya are engaged!
