The question that dominated conversations following Sunday’s Golden Globes was whether Zendaya and Tom Holland had taken the plunge and gotten engaged. According to reports, the answer appears to be in the affirmative. The 28-year-old actress set off a flurry of engagement rumors when she was spotted sporting a dazzling diamond ring on her ring finger. At the prestigious event held at the Beverly Hilton hotel, Zendaya, known for her role in “Challengers,” made no effort to conceal the significant piece of jewelry adorning her left hand. She was captured seemingly showcasing her new accessory to friends, including Ayo Edebiri, star of “The Bear.”
TMZ, the first to break the news of Holland and Zendaya’s rumored engagement, disclosed that the actor popped the question in a private and intimate setting at one of Zendaya’s residences over the holiday season. The dynamic duo, who first sparked romance rumors in 2021, have been an item for some time now. Subsequently, People magazine verified the news of the couple’s engagement.
While Zendaya was bedecked in Bulgari jewelry at the Golden Globes, as indicated in a press release, there was no explicit mention of the stunning ring embellishing her left hand. Reports suggest that the ring in question is a 5.02-carat Jessica McCormack diamond with an elegant Georgian-style cut set in 18k white and yellow gold. Notably, this particular piece is featured in the engagement rings section of the designer’s website. Despite the brand’s social media posts highlighting star Zoë Kravitz donning their jewelry at the event, there was a conspicuous absence of any acknowledgment regarding Zendaya’s distinctive ring. Yahoo Entertainment reached out to the designer for comment, but a response was not immediately forthcoming. Similarly, a representative for the actress declined to provide any statement on the matter.
Amy Kaufman, a reporter for the Los Angeles Times, shared an intriguing encounter with Zendaya at the Golden Globes concerning the speculated engagement ring. As Zendaya was exiting the ballroom, Kaufman, who recently got engaged herself, gestured towards her left ring finger, prompting Zendaya to showcase her own sparkling ring with a playful jazz-hands motion. When asked directly by the Los Angeles Times if she was engaged, Zendaya reportedly responded with a mysterious smile and a nonchalant shrug.
Zendaya and Holland have shared the screen in three Spider-Man installments. Despite their on-screen chemistry, the pair typically opt not to accompany each other on red carpets outside of official movie-related events. Holland explained his absence from the Golden Globes by stating, “It’s not my moment, it’s her moment, and if we go together, it’s about us,” as relayed in a recent interview with Men’s Health.
Neither Holland nor Zendaya has officially addressed the swirling engagement speculations in public. A request for comment made to Holland’s representative by Yahoo went unanswered, maintaining an air of mystery around
