Zendaya finally addresses whether she's married Tom Holland
Zendaya has finally addressed the rumors that she secretly married Tom Holland.
The speculation surrounding the Euphoria star’s relationship hit a peak when her longtime stylist, Law Roach, claimed on the red carpet at the 2026 Actor Awards that the couple had already tied the knot.
"The wedding has already happened. You missed it," he told reporters, before doubling down with: "Y'all missed it. The wedding's over, sorry."
At the same time, AI-generated images of the pair’s "wedding" racked up more than 12 million likes on Instagram, convincing many fans the couple had quietly said, "I do."
The 29-year-old actress set the record straight on her relationship with the Marvel star during an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! this week.
Viral Images Fuel Confusion
Kimmel said to Zendaya: "I'm sure you know the internet has gone berserk with stories that you might actually be married to Tom," to which she jokingly responded: "Really? I haven’t seen any of that!"
The host also pointed out that fans had even created fake photos, which appeared to show the couple celebrating in a lavish Lake Como-style setting, that some people believed were real.
The Challengers actress confirmed just how convincing they were. "I was out and about in real life, and people are like, 'Oh my god, your wedding photos are really gorgeous.' And I was like, 'Babe they’re AI.' They're not real,'" she said.
When asked if anyone close to her had been fooled, she admitted: "Yes, many people."
To clear things up, Zendaya brought along a clip during her talk show appearance that she said would explain everything.
The footage appeared to show her as a bride posing with guests alongside her co-star Robert Pattinson as the groom, with Holland’s face humorously edited onto his body.
"Somewhat closely resembles a scene in the film," Kimmel noted. "Yeah… but it was a beautiful day," Zendaya joked.
"It would seem as if somebody just crudely pasted Tom's head over Robert’s head," the host added. "No… that was real footage," Zendaya replied, playing along.
Kimmel then asked if the video was "AI" to which the Emmy-award-winning actress quipped: "No, that was real. I was there."
The clip was later confirmed to be from her forthcoming movie The Drama, which hits theaters on April 3.
A Private Relationship In The Spotlight
Despite constant speculation, neither Zendaya nor Holland has confirmed if they are married.
The couple, who first sparked dating rumors in 2021 after meeting on Spider-Man: Homecoming in 2016, have consistently kept their relationship private.
The 29-year-old British actor previously said: "Our relationship is something that we are incredibly protective of and we want to keep as sacred as possible. We don’t think that we owe it to anyone, it’s our thing, and it has nothing to do with our careers."
Zendaya has echoed that sentiment, saying: "The equal sentiment [we both share] is just that when you really love and care about somebody, some moments or things, you wish were your own.
"I think loving someone is a sacred thing and a special thing and something that you want to deal with and go through and experience and enjoy amongst the two people that love each other," she added.
