Zendaya Is Engaged to Tom Holland, and She Had the Sweetest Reaction to Engagement Ring Questions at the 2025 Golden Globes
Sources have since dished on the "intimate and romantic" proposal.
Zendaya's appearance at the 2025 Golden Globes was jaw-dropping for a plethora of reasons, including the fact she appeared to be wearing a diamond engagement ring. Now, TMZ is reporting that Zendaya and Tom Holland are officially engaged, with sources dishing on how the romantic proposal went down.
According to the outlet, Zendaya's Spider-Man co-star proposed sometime "between Christmas and New Year's." The outlet's source suggested that Holland dropped to "one knee in a very intimate setting in one of Zendaya's family homes in the United States."
The low-key couple apparently kept their special moment "romantic and intimate," with Holland avoiding "a big, over-the-top proposal." TMZ's sources claimed that no-one else was present for the proposal, which "was just a sweet moment between Tom and Zendaya."
Fans of the couple allegedly shouldn't expect a wedding anytime soon, however. Per TMZ, wedding planning is yet to begin as the successful pair have "both got a lot of Hollywood projects and commitments coming up."
While Zendaya hit the 2025 Golden Globes red carpet solo, the internet was abuzz with engagement rumors on account of her huge new ring.
The Los Angeles Times excitedly shared Zendaya's reaction to engagement ring questions at the event. "As Zendaya exited the ballroom, a recently engaged [Los Angeles] Times reporter held up her left ring finger and pointed at it," the outlet reported. "The actor responded by flashing her own bling on her left hand, doing a sort of jazz-fingers motions." The publication continued, "'Are you engaged?' the Times asked. She kept showing her ring, smiled coyly and shrugged her shoulders mysteriously."
For the star-studded occasion, Zendaya made a ton of best-dressed lists by effortlessly channeling Old Hollywood glamour. Styled by Law Roach, Zendaya wore a custom Louis Vuitton citrus orange gown, which she accessorized with a diamond and emerald Bulgari necklace, and her engagement ring, of course.
