Zendaya feels love and loss go hand in hand

Zendaya gets philosophical about life, love, and loss in a candid interview with Robert Pattinson, discussing rom-coms and privacy.

"so much of life is loss, losing people you love and grieving - Zendaya"

Los Angeles, Feb 19

Hollywood actress Zendaya is getting philosophical about life, love and loss. The actress has shared that she has learned that "so much of life is loss".

The 29-year-old actress, who is engaged to fellow movie star Tom Holland, has learned that "love and loss go hand in hand", reports 'Female First UK'.

Speaking with Robert Pattinson about her favourite romantic movies, Zendaya told 'Interview' magazine, "To what you're saying, they are often devastating, and that's just the nature of being alive. A lot of them have to do with loss, and something I've learned as I've gotten older is that so much of life is loss, losing people you love and grieving and getting through that, so in some weird way, love and loss go hand in hand. But because it's the holidays, I've been watching a lot of romcoms. Sometimes I need them to end up together".

She further mentioned, "But there is no ending. Who knows if in 10 years they're unhappy and divorced? I guess it's all the same movie, you're just picking up at a different point in people's lives".

As per 'Female First UK', Zendaya admits that she's still learning to balance her personal life with her film career.

The actress explained to Robert, "Something I admire about you is you keep so much of your life to yourself, which is a beautiful thing, especially having a family. I'm learning how to balance those things. At the end of the day, you're a public figure, there's nothing you can do, but some things are meant for yourself and for your loved ones, and then also allowing for that space between the anonymity of you, so that you can play someone else and they won't necessarily always put you in".

Interesting perspective. In our culture, we're taught about 'Maya' and detachment from a young age. Her thoughts on balancing public and private life are very relevant, especially in today's social media age where everyone shares everything. More power to her for setting boundaries.

"So much of life is loss" – that hit hard. It's a mature outlook for someone her age. While I admire her philosophy, I do wish she'd given more practical examples of how she copes. The article feels a bit surface-level on that front.

Her comment about not knowing if a couple is happy in 10 years is so true! Bollywood and Hollywood both sell us the 'happily ever after' fantasy. Real relationships require constant work, something we often forget. Good on her for being grounded.

As a young professional in Mumbai, I relate to her struggle of balancing personal life with career demands. It's a global issue, but the pressure feels immense here. Glad celebrities are talking about it openly. More power to Zendaya! ✨

Wise words. In the end, whether you're a Hollywood star or a regular person in Delhi, the fundamental human experiences are the same. Love, loss, finding balance – it's all part of the journey. Respect for her introspection.
