Everyone’s favorite couple Tom Holland and Zendaya are still going strong, as the Marvel actor gushed over his girlfriend, adding that he’s “lucky” to have Zendaya in his life.
In Monday’s episode of the Wondery podcast Smartless, hosted by Jason Bateman, Sean Hayes and Will Arnett, the Spider-Man actor, 27, explained why he and Zendaya, 26, work so well together. And it’s all about understanding each other.
“I’m lucky that I have someone like Zendaya in my life,” Holland said. “It’s interesting being in a romantic relationship with someone that is in the same boat as you.”
He continued: “You can share your experiences and all that sort of stuff — and that’s worth its weight in gold.“
Holland also recently opened up about in his relationship with Zendaya in a recent cover story for The Hollywood Reporter, highlighting the need for privacy. He noted that they not only prefer to keep their personal lives private, but they are also “two very busy people” in their careers.
Holland said, “Our relationship is something that we are incredibly protective of and we want to keep as sacred as possible. We don’t think that we owe it to anyone, it’s our thing, and it has nothing to do with our careers.“
From Best Friends to Lovers
Tom Holland and Zendaya have been denying a relationship for years before it was finally true. They met when filming for Marvel’s Spider-Man and were initially good friends.
Despite their chemistry being off charts, both Holland and Zendaya denied they were romantically involved. Until they couldn’t deny it anymore.
Pictures of the two kissing surfaced two years ago, in July 2021, and they became Instagram official in September 2021.
Since then, they have been steadily supporting each other, both off- and on-camera.
