In a recent cover story for British GQ, Holland talked about Zendaya and said talking to her about fame "helped [him] a lot," in the sense that he "used to come across sometimes as a bit of a d--- to fans" unintentionally. Tom also said that Zendaya "totally changed the way I am able to be more comfortable in public." He also talked about the speculation about his romantic life and how it can be "frustrating" to have personal relationships in the limelight. "It's very nerve-racking. It means that if you are dating someone, you have to be really conscious of their feelings, because if something does happen between the two of you, it's not just happening between the two of you, it's happening in front of the entire world. It's one of the things I worry about most, of all the things in my career, " he said.

Back in 2017, a source told People magazine that Tom and Zendaya were 'seeing each other'. "They started seeing each other while they were filming Spider-Man. They've been super careful to keep it private and out of the public eye but they've gone on vacations with each other and try and spend as much time as possible with one another, " the source said. Another source added, "They're both really ambitious and they challenge each other, but, most importantly, they make each other crack up. They seem to have a really similar sense of humor and love joking around together. They have great banter back and forth." 

However, Zendaya shut down any and all speculations that same month by tweeting, "My favorite is when it says we go on vacations together HA! I haven't been on a vacation in years! hbu @TomHolland1996 ???" In August of that year, the 'Euphoria' actress told Variety that she and Holland not dating. "He's literally one of my best friends. This past how many months we've had to do press tours together. There's very few people that will understand what that's like at 20 years old, " she said.
