Zendaya, our queen of effortless cool, has officially stepped into the “Yes, I said yes!” phase of her life, and the world can’t handle it. The 28-year-old superstar was caught flaunting her brand-new bling while waltzing into a screening of her movie Challengers on Monday night (January 6) in West Hollywood, Calif. Casual? Never. Iconic? Always.
Sporting a black leather ensemble that screamed, “I’m engaged, but I’m still cooler than you,” Zendaya had fans swooning. Because if you’re going to step out post-engagement, why not look like a superhero who moonlights as a fashionista?
Now, about that sparkly little number on her finger. After Zendaya flashed it at the Golden Globes on Sunday night, the rumor mill cranked into overdrive. Was she engaged to longtime beau and our friendly neighborhood Spider-Man, Tom Holland? The answer: a resounding YES! News outlets confirmed the lovebirds’ next-level romance, and the internet promptly imploded.
Tom, bless his romantic little heart, reportedly pulled off a proposal so swoon-worthy that even rom-com writers are taking notes. Fans, of course, are living for the details—because why mind your own business when you can virtually crash someone’s engagement party?
Detective-level fans (you know, the kind who should probably work for the FBI) believe the ring is a Jessica McCormack masterpiece. Specifically, a 5.02ct East-West Cushion Diamond Button Back Ring. And because Zendaya is nothing if not ahead of the game, she apparently liked an Instagram post featuring a similar ring back in 2022. Two years of manifesting greatness—now that’s commitment.
So, what’s next for the power couple? A wedding so epic that it’ll make royal nuptials look like backyard BBQs? Probably. Until then, we’ll be here, obsessively refreshing Instagram for more glimpses of that ring and their adorably chaotic love story. Congrats, Z and Tom—keep being the cutest.
