British actor Tom Holland has confirmed that he has married his longtime partner and fellow actress Zendaya, putting an end to months of speculation surrounding the status of their relationship.
Holland revealed the development during an interview with Esquire magazine, where he disclosed that the couple had already held a private wedding ceremony away from public attention.
According to him, the ceremony took place quietly, with no public announcement or media presence, in line with the couple’s preference for privacy in their personal lives.
“The wedding has already happened. You missed it,” he said during the interview, echoing remarks previously made by Zendaya’s stylist regarding the couple’s union.

Holland explained that maintaining a stable personal relationship has been important amid the pressures of their careers in the entertainment industry, noting that both actors often face demanding and stressful professional environments.
“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.
The Spider-Man star added that he considers Zendaya his life partner and closest confidant, describing her as his “best friend” and the person he believes he is meant to be with.
“For me, I found my person. She’s my best friend,” he added.
The confirmation follows years of public interest in the relationship between the two actors, who first met on the set of Spider-Man: Homecoming and later became one of Hollywood’s most closely followed celebrity couples.
Neither Holland nor Zendaya had previously confirmed a wedding, making the latest revelation the first official confirmation of their marital status.
The couple, both 28, have often kept their relationship largely private despite widespread media attention and fan speculation over their engagement and future plans.
Holland’s disclosure is expected to intensify global interest in the couple, who have become one of the entertainment industry’s most popular and closely watched partnerships.
