According to a source, the engagement didn’t surprise those closest to the couple. “Everyone knew it was happening—just not when,” the insider said. “Tom’s been crazy about her for years and always knew she was the one.” Despite the excitement, the pair plans to take their time before walking down the aisle. “They’ll enjoy this moment and won’t rush a wedding,” the source added.
The engagement was all but confirmed when Zendaya appeared at the 2025 Golden Globes on January 5, wearing a dazzling diamond ring on her left hand. The piece, identified as a 5.02-carat Jessica McCormack East-West Cushion Diamond Ring, sparked widespread speculation about the couple’s next chapter.

Holland hinted at something special during a December podcast appearance, sharing his plans to spend the holidays with Zendaya’s family. “I’ll be with my girlfriend’s family, which will be fun,” he teased, keeping the location under wraps.
The couple’s romance blossomed in real life after their on-screen characters, Peter Parker and MJ, shared their first kiss in 2019’s Spider-Man: Far From Home. After years of maintaining they were just friends, the duo was spotted kissing in 2021, confirming their relationship.

While the couple continues to navigate fame, they’ve shown the world that love, patience, and respect are at the core of their bond. “Happiest of birthdays to the one who makes me happiest,” Zendaya wrote in a 2022 Instagram post, summing up their enduring connection.
