Zendaya is Tom Holland’s “biggest supporter”: in their “rock solid” 3-year relationship

In July 2021, a video of Zendaya and Tom Holland sharing a kiss in a car was released, making their relationship public. Now, more than three years later, a source tells Us Weekly that the couple’s bond is still “rock solid,” largely due to their strong friendship.

The insider noted, “These two are the real deal. They started out as best friends, and that’s (why) their relationship is rock solid.”

The source continued: “They are each other’s biggest supporters. They ‘get’ each other.”

Their families are also very supportive of their relationship. The source stated, “Their families are totally (into their relationship).”

“(They) think they are a perfect match.”

Zendaya and Holland have generally kept their personal lives out of the spotlight, but they are openly supportive of each other’s careers. Zendaya told ELLE last summer that she tries to maintain their privacy, while acknowledging fans’ interest in their relationship.

She said, “I accept that parts of my life will become public.”

“I can’t not be a person and live my life and love the person that I love. But I also have control over what I choose to share. It’s about protecting the peace and letting things be yours, but also not being afraid to exist. You can’t hide. That’s not fun either. I’m navigating it now more than ever.”

Despite their attempts to keep their relationship private, Zendaya sometimes praises Holland in interviews without being asked. She went viral during a Buzzfeed interview last winter when she was asked which member of the Dune: Part Two cast had the most charisma. After humorously claiming it was her, she nodded to her boyfriend.

“Rizz is short for charisma, right? Everyone has a little bit of their own charisma,” she said.

“I think someone who has a wonderful charisma, not in the Dune cast, but I know personally that it works for me, is Mr. Tom Holland. I’m shy and a little quiet, so it takes a little bit more effort to come out of my shell. But he’s great at talking to people and getting to know people. You see him on talk shows and stuff like that. He’s just naturally good at it. Whereas I definitely had to pull it out of myself a little bit. He has that natural talent.”
