Now That Zendaya and Tom Holland Are Finally Dating, Let's Look Back at How They Got Here

When it comes to celebrity couples, Tom Holland and Zendaya are the king and queen of "are they or aren't they?" The actors have been plagued by romance rumors ever since they starred together in 2017's "Spider-Man: Homecoming," but they'd always maintained that they're just friends.

However, in July 2021, the two were spotted sharing a passionate kiss while stopped at a red light in Los Angeles. They later addressed the speculation in Holland's November 2021 GQ cover story. "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," Holland told the publication. "I've always been really adamant to keep my private life private, because I share so much of my life with the world anyway."

Most recently, Zendaya wished Holland a happy 26th birthday with a sweet Instagram tribute that featured a cuddly black-and-white photo of the two looking very happy together. "Happiest of birthdays to the one who makes me the happiest," Zendaya wrote in her caption alongside a heart symbol.

In honor of their blossoming romance, let's look back at Zendaya and Holland's relationship timeline, shall we?
