Tom Holland and Zendaya really are couple goals, but even they have their differences — which are mainly height related.

During an appearance on Friday's episode of The Graham Norton Show, the couple opened up about how hard it was for them to carry out certain stunts in Spider-Man: No Way Home, because of their two-inch height difference.

Holland is around 5'8" and Zendaya is about 5'10" inches tall, per Buzzfeed.

"It's a good story," the Euphoria star began, and Holland agreed.

"There’s a particular stunt, I don't know if it's in this," she said while pointing to the screen, "where Spider-Man swings us on top of a bridge, and he places me there. He’s supposed to gently rest MJ on the bridge and walk away from her."

However, due to their height difference, Zendaya found herself landing before her boyfriend.

"My feet obviously hit the ground before he does," she explained. "I’m the superhero, I’m supposed to look cool and I would land and my feet would swing from underneath me, and then she would catch me," Holland added while demonstrating how it happened.

Zendaya said that Holland was "very lovely" about the whole ordeal, saying "You were like, 'Oh my gosh, thank you," to which the Spider-Man star laughed, "It's so nice to be caught for a change."

Holland has previously opened up about his relationship with the star, and how they have struggled to maintain their privacy.

"One of the downsides of our fame is that privacy isn’t really in our control anymore, and a moment that you think is between two people that love each other very much is now a moment that is shared with the entire world," he told GQ back in November.

"I’ve always been really adamant to keep my private life private, because I share so much of my life with the world anyway," Holland added. "We sort of felt robbed of our privacy. I don’t think it’s about not being ready. It’s just that we didn’t want to."
