The year 2026 is a busy one for Zendaya. In addition to starring in the third season of “Euphoria,” set to premiere on April 13, 2026, on HBO Max, the actress also appears in the film “The Drama” alongside Robert Pattinson, released since April 1, 2026.
As part of the film’s promotion, Zendaya participated in an episode of The New York Times’ podcast “Modern Love,” which was released on the same day as “The Drama.” In the episode, she discussed her role in the film and her first meeting with Tom Holland, whom she reportedly married in recent months.
Zendaya feels “at ease” with Tom Holland Zendaya’s first memories with Tom Holland date back to 2017 during the audition for the film “Spider-Man: Homecoming,” where the two actors met for the first time. She explained, “I knew he was the man of my life because I don’t feel nervous in his presence. I feel really calm and at ease, to the point that I am more nervous when I’m away from him than when I’m with him.”
When asked how Tom Holland made her feel comfortable during the auditions, Zendaya replied, “Simply by being a good person. By making me comfortable. It’s like taking a chemistry test for a big movie like this. You think, ‘Oh, you really want the role,’ and all that. And yes, he was really lovely at that moment.”
Zendaya and Tom Holland already married? While Zendaya and Tom Holland reportedly started dating in 2017, they only confirmed their relationship in 2021 and have been keeping it out of the public eye. The couple announced their engagement on January 5, 2025, at the Golden Globes, with Zendaya wearing a diamond ring on her left ring finger.
According to stylist Law Roach, who has worked with Zendaya for several years, the marriage has already taken place. He jokingly stated during an interview with “Access Hollywood” on March 1, 2026, “The wedding has already happened. You missed it.”
Photos generated by artificial intelligence have been circulating on social media since this interview. Zendaya addressed this during an appearance on “Jimmy Kimmel Live” on March 16, 2026, saying, “Many people were fooled. I was out and people were telling me, ‘Oh my god, your wedding photos are beautiful,’ and I would reply, ‘Darling, it’s AI. It’s not real’.”
