Tom Holland and Zendaya, two young Hollywood stars, are the latest golden couple of the industry. The actors first crossed paths on the set of Spider-Man: Homecoming and quickly formed a close bond. Over time, the couple has become increasingly open about their relationship.
The couple often posts affectionate photos and messages for each other on their social media accounts. Despite their near-perfect relationship, Zendaya revealed her difficulties with Tom Holland.
What Problems Does Zendaya Face In Her Relationship
In a recent interview, Zendaya opened up about her difficulty comprehending Tom Holland‘s British slang, especially of the rhyming variety. Despite her affection for the British accent, the actress expressed her confusion over certain rhyming phrases, admitting that while she understands the concept, its meaning eludes her.
“Like I understand the concept — but what do apples and pears have to do with stairs?… It’s cute when he tells me all the different phrases — but I really don’t get it!”
Zendaya, known for her role in the popular HBO series Euphoria, was first romantically linked to Tom Holland in 2016. Both actors were cast in the Marvel film Spider-Man: Homecoming. Despite enjoying a combined Instagram following of 241 million fans, the celebrities love engaging in ordinary activities like any other couple.
Zendaya Describes Living With Tom Holland In London
In September 2021, Tom Holand made their relationship official by sharing a mirror selfie of himself with Zendaya backstage, which garnered over 20 million likes. The social media post provided fans with a glimpse into their romantic connection.
According to reports, the couple bought a £3 million, six-bedroom apartment in Richmond last year, located just four miles from Kingston upon Thames, where Tom Holland grew up. Describing her life with Holland, Zendaya said,
“He is really good in the kitchen, which is fortunate as I am really accident-prone. We learnt early on that only one of us could be in the kitchen at a time, we are both control freaks so we can’t be in there together.”
The Spider-Man Franchise Reaching New Heights
While fans admire Zendaya and Holland’s relationship, their on-screen chemistry also has a huge fan following. In 2015, Holland signed a six-picture deal with Marvel Studios. Stan Lee, the co-creator of Spider-Man, also expressed his admiration for the casting choice. He stated that Holland’s age and height perfectly aligned with his vision for the character.
Besides playing the character of Peter Parker’s lover interest MJ in the films, Zendaya not only portrayed a vital role in the movie but also supported Tom Holland throughout the ups and downs of being in the public eye. The Uncharted actor revealed
“I’m a little worried [about dealing with fame] but Zendaya is super-famous and she’s been through this, so I just call her up and say, ‘How do I manage being famous?’”
Spider-Man: No Way Home, the star couple’s latest Marvel adventure, can be streamed On-Demand on Amazon Prime Video.
