Why would Tom Holland skip Zendaya’s red carpet premiere?
Tom Holland is Zendaya’s biggest fan — we can tell by the way he’s always gushing over her and her accomplishments. But when it comes to Zendaya’s red carpet appearances, he usually chooses to skip them to keep the focus on her.
Tom He said Men’s Health says that in general, he cannot easily attend certain events, such as the theater, as his fame tends to distract from other actors.
That’s why he won’t be attending red carpets at Zendaya’s TV and movie premieres. “Because this is not my moment,” he explained. “It’s her moment, and if we go together, it’s about us.”
The last time the duo walked the red carpet was in 2021 for their movie premiere Spider-Man: No way home. Although Tom has not been seen at her recent premieres, he noted that most of the time he is there backstage.
The duo, who confirmed their relationship in 2021, tend to be incredibly private about their romance, but from Tom’s interview, it seems like things are going well.
He said they had just gotten a dog named Daphne. “She’s so cute, man, she’s actually a joke,” Tom said of the Doberman.
Last April, a source also told People magazine that he and Zendaya had discussed marriage. “There was talk of marriage, and this is the reality,” the insider said. But “work is important to both of them, so that keeps them busy now.”
Tom and Zendaya will appear next Spider-Man 4 and Odyssey in 2026. Maybe we’ll see them on the red carpet next!
