Tom Holland revealed that he tries not to appear alongside girlfriend Zendaya on red carpets for her movie premieres because he doesn’t want to draw attention away from her. As he told Men’s Health in an interview, “it’s not my moment, it’s her moment, and if we go together, it’s about us.” Holland was nowhere to be seen at the red carpets for Zendaya’s recent blockbusters Dune: Part Two and Challengers, according to Page Six. The Hollywood power couple has always tried to keep their relationship out of the spotlight. Although they were plagued by relationship rumors after playing love interests in Spider-Man: Homecoming in 2017, it wasn’t until four years later that they confirmed that they were together, after a photo was snapped of them kissing in a car. “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 GQ in 2021. The pair is set to grace the silver screen together again for their fourth Spider-Man movie, slated for release in 2026.
