Tom Holland Basically (Kind of) Confirms Zendaya Wedding

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

Tom Holland Basically (Kind of) Confirms Zendaya Wedding

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.

Christina Applegate Says She Was Misdiagnosed With Multiple Sclerosis: ‘It’s Very Confusing’

Five years after Christina Applegate‘s doctors told her that she had multiple sclerosis, they’re now telling her she never had the autoimmune disorder. The actress revealed the news on MeSsy, her MS-themed podcast she hosts with Jamie Lynn Sigler, who has MS, since March 2024. She said she’s in a “state of shock” over the news, which she calls a “mindfuck.” What’s most frustrating for Applegate, though, is that she still has symptoms that no longer have an explanation and that she feels she accidentally misrepresented herself to those with the disorder, according to People.

On back-to-back episodes of the podcast, Applegate explained that she took a leave of absence from the podcast in March while she processed her doctor’s news. “She came into my room and said, ‘Congratulations, you don’t have MS,’” Applegate said. “I was, like, not happy at all. Everybody else was so happy.”

Maren Morris Hits Back at Shane Gillis’ ‘SNL’ Joke About Women Being ‘Whores’ at the Gym

Maren Morris responded to Shane Gillis‘ controversial Saturday Night Live monologue by giving the comedian the middle finger.

Gillis hosted the late-night sketch show on Saturday night and spent his monologue commenting on how women dress at the gym. “I haven’t been to the gym in so long I didn’t know women just dress like whores now?” Gillis said. “Look, I’m sorry, there’s no other way to describe it. Have you seen it? I’ve seen it. You’ve seen the shorts? They’re those neon, like, artificial bait-colored. And the wrinkles go around the cheeks and all combine at the butthole. And don’t look! You’re not allowed to look. For real, don’t look, because they are filming.”
