Tom Holland and Zendaya have officially taken their relationship to the next level with their engagement! The beloved duo have been turning heads as an item following their debut in the Spider-Man franchise. However, unlike their famous fictional characters, the entertainers’ future has wedding bells.
A source recently confirmed their engagement, revealing how Holland popped the big question. They described him as very traditional, noting he sought Zendaya’s father’s permission before making his move. He reportedly contacted Kazembe Ajamu Coleman “months ago” for his daughter’s hand in marriage and received the father’s blessing.
The insider stated that Kazembe was not the only member of the Coleman family excited to welcome Holland. They claimed the whole clan adored the actor, noting they saw him as “a class act.” Naturally, Zendaya’s relatives were happy for the couple and eagerly anticipated the next chapter of their relationship.
As for the big proposal, the informant shared that it took months before Holland made his move. He allegedly waited for the right moment to propose, bending the knee at one of Zendaya’s family homes. The engagement occurred over the holiday season, sometime between Christmas and New Year’s, per TMZ.
The outlet noted it was a romantic and intimate affair without the couple’s respective families in attendance. A source claimed it was not an over-the-top proposal as Holland kept things simple, allowing the pair to enjoy themselves. As for their wedding, the insider revealed they had not begun planning.
They explained the couple were too busy to focus on a wedding. Holland and Zendaya reportedly had several Hollywood projects and commitments coming up and would prioritize their aisle journey later. The lovebirds started dating in 2021, several years after meeting on the set of Spider-Man: Homecoming.

However, the massive diamond gem on her left finger stole the spotlight, with many wondering whether Holland had proposed. Fans shared their thoughts on X, with one user declaring: “Good for her!!! Congratulations!!!”
A fellow excited fan noted they could not wait to “find out what the details are” on Zendaya’s engagement. Meanwhile, a third wondered if the speculations were news or just gossip. Holland’s plans to propose made waves last December when a source noted he was keen on getting married.
They explained that Holland was motivated to propose after collaborating with Robert Pattinson on The Devil All the Time. “For Tom’s part, he’s seen up close how settling down, getting serious, and having kids has changed Rob. Tom wants that life for himself and Zendaya, sooner rather than later,” the insider claimed.
Congratulations, Tom Holland and Zendaya! What a great way to start a new year.
