The actor came close to confirming the long-rumored nuptials in a new interview, without actually saying anything substantive

At long last, verifiable statements about Tom Holland and Zendaya’s long-rumored wedding have finally emerged, and this time straight from one of the two parties involved. Yes, we can finally confirm that the couple did get married recently… probably. We think. 

The nuptials have been the subject of much speculation since Zendaya was seen at the 2025 Golden Globes wearing what looked like an engagement ring. Then, in March, Zendaya’s longtime stylist, Law Roach, claimed that the wedding had “already happened” during a red carpet interview. 

But there’s still been no direct confirmation from Holland and Zendaya. During a recent appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Zendaya managed to debunk some viral, AI-generated photos depicting their wedding, while still managing to pull off the ol’ “we can neither confirm nor deny” when it came to the actual alleged event. 

Now, in a new interview with Esquire, Holland inched ever so slightly closer towards that elusive official confirmation while, impressively, still maintaining plenty of ambiguity. When discussing those same AI images, Holland said they fooled his grandmother, who worried she hadn’t been invited. The actor was then asked if he had to reassure any other people who may have felt they’d been snubbed. After a reported six-second pause, Holland said, “No, because they were all there.” 

Faced then with reporter Henry Wong’s innocent statement that he hadn’t realized the wedding had happened, Holland promptly shut down the line of questioning. “That’s all you’ll get on that,” he said.

Despite curtailing any further questions about a wedding that we must still, alas, describe as “alleged,” Holland showed some more candor when discussing how the two famous actors ground each other in their relationship. 

“Our business can present very stressful situations, and it’s really nice to have a bedrock of a relationship that will stand the test of time,” he said. “We can support each other in ways that only we can, because only we understand really what it’s like to live this life, and I think that is such a luxury, because I just don’t understand how I would be able to have anything like that with anyone else.

Holland and Zendaya are starring in two movies together this summer. They’ll both appear in Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey, with Holland playing Odysseus’ son Telemachus, and Zendaya playing the goddess Athena. And then they’ll reprise their roles as Peter Parker/Spider-Man and MJ, respectively, in Spider-Man: Brand New Day.
