Zendaya’s playful response when asked about the possibility of a wedding with Tom Holland
Zendaya doesn't appear to be disputing these reports. The Euphoria star responded cheekily to Marsai Martin's humorous reference to her marriage at the Essence Black Women in Hollywood Awards, more than a week after her longtime stylist Law Roach hinted she and Tom Holland got married.
"Hey, Z! One of our previous Black Women in Hollywood honorees," according to a video that People was able to obtain, the Black-ish actress said this onstage at the Fairmont Century Plaza Hotel in Los Angeles on March 12. "I know you don't play about your personal business."
Zendaya sat at her table, covering her face with both of her hands while wearing an all-white antique Cachè outfit for the event. Naturally, as the camera caught the moment, a brilliant tri-band ring on her left ring finger gleamed.

"Just give me a little nod, or a signal to let me know when I should get the 'T & Z Forever' [sic] monochrome towels," Marsai made fun of it... "It'll be really cute. You can put it in whatever house. Just give me a little sign. We'll talk after the show."
The host joked, "I know damn well you ain't finna be here after the show," despite the Challengers actress nodding and appearing to agree with the conversation. "It's alright. Later, later!"
Although Zendaya's one-shoulder dress, which was created in 1987 for Whitney Houston, attracted attention during the occasion, her newest piece of jewelry was the true star.
Law disclosed the milestone at the 2026 Actor Awards, but neither the 29-year-old nor Tom, who is also 29, have discussed their potential marriage in public. Earlier this month, he said on Access Hollywood, "The wedding has already happened! You missed it."
Maintaining her personal affairs discreet has been difficult for the actress, who met Tom while filming Spider-Man: Homecoming in 2016.
"I'm learning how to balance those things," in February, she spoke with Robert Pattinson, a co-star in The Drama, over Interview magazine. "At the end of the day, you're a public figure, there's nothing you can do, but some things are meant for yourself and for your loved ones."
"I do try to have privacy, not just for characters, but for me in real life," she added. "I try to be honest to who I am when I am in public, but I also try to keep things for myself."
Tom and Zendaya, however, decide to save some special times for themselves.
