When Zendaya was seen at the 2025 Golden Globes wearing a diamond ring on her left hand, it fuelled suspicions that she was engaged to be married.

Fans immediately thought that it was an engagement ring, which prompted her to clarify the situation in a video that has since been deleted, saying, "I can't post anything ... I posted [the photo] for my hat, like, not for the ring on my right finger you guys! Seriously, you think that's how I would drop the news?" The fact that she made this statement demonstrates how frustrated she is with the persistent rumors that surround her relationship.

"Parts of my life, I accept, are going to be public. I can't not be a person and live my life and love the person I love," she told Elle in 2023. "But also, I do have control over what I choose to share."
"It's about protecting the peace and letting things be your own but also not being afraid to exist. You can't hide. That's not fun, either. I am navigating it more than ever now," she added. She placed a strong emphasis on the significance of maintaining her tranquility while nevertheless being able to exist in public.
A nomination for "Best Performance by a Female Actor in a Motion Picture Musical or Comedy" was presented to Zendaya at the Golden Globes. The nomination was for her part in the film "Challengers." On the other hand, Tom Holland did not show up for the ceremony either.
The reason he normally avoids walking red carpets with Zendaya was further upon in a recent cover article for Men's Health. He stated,"It's not my moment; it's her moment, and if we go together, it's about us."
