After rumors began to circulate about the relationship status of actors Tom Holland and Zendaya, TMZ has revealed that the couple are engaged. The news comes after Zendaya stepped out at the 2025 Golden Globes sporting a diamond ring on her left ring finger, which appears to be a '5.02-carat East-West Cushion Diamond Button Back Ring' from Jessica McCormack.
According to the outlet, Holland proposed to Zendaya at one of her family homes over the holidays, with a source telling PEOPLE that "everyone close to them knew an engagement was happening" — just not when" and adding that Holland has been wanting to propose to Zendaya "for a while. He's always been crazy about her. He always knew she was the one. They have something very special." The source also revealed that the couple, both 28, are planning on a long engagement: "They will just enjoy things for now and won't rush a wedding. They are both busy with work projects."
Holland and Zendaya -- who play onscreen couple Peter Parker and Michelle "MJ" Jones in the Spider-Man movies -- went Instagram official in September 2021, with Holland posting a selfie of the couple in honor of Zendaya's 25th birthday, writing: “My MJ, have the happiest of birthdays. Gimme a call when your up xxx” Later in a June 2022 Instagram post celebrating Holland's 26th birthday, Zendaya wrote: "Happiest of birthdays to the one who makes me the happiest <3" alongside a black-and-white snapshot of the pair cuddling.
