Tom Holland started his day watching the sunrise from the Empire State Building on March 18, celebrating the trailer for Spider-Man: Brand New Day. Fans noticed something else too: the 29-year-old actor was not wearing a wedding ring.

Ring talk and reality

Recent reports claimed Tom and his longtime partner Zendaya had secretly married. Since early March, Zendaya has been seen wearing a simple gold band alongside the 5-carat engagement ring Tom gave her. Her stylist, Law Roach, added fuel to the rumors by saying the wedding had "already happened." Zendaya has also favored all-white looks at public events, including a Vivienne Westwood outfit that nodded to bridal style.

What they are saying

Tom has not publicly confirmed anything about a marriage. Zendaya, when asked, playfully deflected. On a late-night show she told Jimmy Kimmel, "Really? I haven't seen any of that."

She has been clear about keeping their relationship private. In a previous interview she said, "Neither of us want to hide and not live our lives and do normal things like go out for dinner, but at the same time we want to protect our privacy. You have to accept that to a degree some aspects of your privacy are going to be out of your control. But the parts that are in our control, we fiercely protect."

Work and praise

Zendaya has spoken warmly about Tom as a colleague. She described his presence on set as calming and said he is not only her favorite person personally, but also her favorite person to work with. The two have been close both on and off the set of the Spider-Man films and are also connected through other projects like The Odyssey.
