BREAKING NEWS: Tom Holland, 28, Has Finally Proposed to Girlfriend Zendaya Coleman, 28, Just After Their Romantic NYC Date Night — Reveals Their Next Step: “We Have Decided to…”

It’s official: Hollywood’s favorite couple is taking the next big step! British actor Tom Holland has proposed to longtime girlfriend and fellow Marvel superstar Zendaya Coleman, marking a fairytale moment fans have been hoping for since their Spider-Man: Homecoming debut nearly a decade ago.
The emotional proposal reportedly took place just hours after the pair were spotted enjoying an intimate, candlelit dinner at a luxury rooftop restaurant in Manhattan. Eyewitnesses say the two looked “completely in love,” holding hands, laughing, and sharing quiet moments away from the public eye.
But the biggest moment happened later that night — and it wasn’t long before the world found out.
“She Said Yes” — A Moment Years in the Making
In a joint Instagram post early Tuesday morning, Holland and Zendaya confirmed the happy news with a simple yet powerful photo: Zendaya’s hand resting gently on Tom’s, a stunning vintage-style engagement ring gleaming in the shot. The caption read:
> “She said yes 💍 Here’s to forever.”
Shortly after the post went viral, Holland opened up in a brief statement to People Magazine, saying:
“We’ve been through so much together — on screen and off — and there was never a doubt in my heart. Proposing to Zendaya felt like the most natural thing in the world. We’ve decided to start the next chapter of our lives, together, with intention, love, and peace.”
The Next Step: A Life Outside the Spotlight?
In a surprising twist, Holland also revealed that the couple plans to take a step back from Hollywood after tying the knot.
> “We have decided to take some real time off to enjoy life privately — to travel, to build our home, and maybe even start a family when the time is right,” he shared.
Zendaya echoed the sentiment in a follow-up Instagram Story, writing:
“So much love. So much gratitude. And now… so much peace.”
According to close sources, the couple is planning a small, private ceremony in Europe later this year — possibly in France or Italy, where they’ve previously vacationed together.

The internet has exploded with joy and congratulations. Fellow actors, singers, and celebrities — from Marvel co-stars to pop icons — flooded their comments section with well wishes.
Robert Downey Jr. wrote, “Welcome to the club, kid. Sending love to you both.”

Even Marvel Studios chimed in with a playful post on X:
> “Peter Parker and MJ, together forever — on and off screen 💘”
