Tom Holland corrects reporter who calls Zendaya his girlfriend

Spider-Man star Tom Holland adorably corrected a journalist who called Zendaya his "girlfriend" after their January engagement, as his father revealed proposal details.

"Fiancee. - Tom Holland"

Washington DC, September 30

Tom Holland corrected a reporter who referred to Zendaya as his girlfriend. He got engaged to her in January, E! News reported.

The 'Spider-Man: No Way Home' star adorably corrected a journalist who referred to Zendaya--whom he got engaged to in January--as his "girlfriend" while speaking on a panel.

"I brought my daughter, and she got to meet your girlfriend," the reporter recalled of a recent event attended by the Euphoria actress in the clip shared to X. "So, I was father of the year," as quoted by E! News.

In response to the anecdote, Tom said, quickly correcting, "Fiancee."

In January, Tom Holland's father, Dominic Holland, shared exclusive details about his son's engagement to Zendaya, which the couple has kept largely private.

In a post on Patreon, Dominic confirmed that Tom had indeed proposed to Zendaya in a carefully planned and intimate moment, as per E! News.

Days after Zendaya subtly hinted at her engagement by sporting a stunning 5-carat ring at the 2025 Golden Globes, Tom's father revealed the heartfelt preparation behind the proposal.

"He had purchased a ring," Dominic wrote in the January 10 post, adding, "he had spoken with her father and gained permission to propose to his daughter. Tom had everything planned out... When, where, how, what to say, what to wear," as per E! News.

After Zendaya and Tom Holland confirmed their engagement in January, following Zendaya sporting her ring at the Golden Globes, her stylist, Law Roach, revealed he will be involved in the wedding."It's far away," said Law at the Fashion Trust Awards in Los Angeles.

"They're both doing a bunch of movies this year and there's a lot of premieres next year so you'll see a lot of red carpets, " reported E! News.

Law shared that the wedding is not near. "I'm resting up for 2026."

Interesting how he followed traditional protocol by asking her father's permission. Reminds me of how we do things in India with family involvement in marriages. Though I wish they'd share more details with fans who've supported them for years.

🩷 Love how private they're keeping their relationship despite being huge stars! In today's social media age, it's refreshing to see celebrities maintain some privacy like our Bollywood stars used to do in the old days.

The reporter probably just made an honest mistake, but Tom's quick correction was classy. Waiting till 2026 for the wedding seems practical given their busy schedules - reminds me of how Indian couples often have long engagements due to career commitments.

🩷🩷 Can't wait to see their wedding! Hope they incorporate some Indian elements since Zendaya has shown appreciation for our culture in the past. The 5-carat ring sounds stunning - definitely worth the wait till 2026!

Respect to Tom for being traditional and asking her father's blessing. Shows good character. In our culture, family approval is everything when it comes to marriage. Hope they have a beautiful wedding when the time comes!
