Tom Holland was a very supportive boyfriend at yesterday’s Challengers premiere in London—he just kept his moments with Zendaya off the red carpet. Holland has been in the city, rehearsing for Romeo and Juilet’s London production.
A woman inside the theater got footage of Zendaya and Holland’s reunion and shared it on her Instagram Story. The couple kissed and hugged in the clip since posted on X, formerly known as Twitter. You can watch it here. Holland matched Zendaya’s white Thom Browne dress in a white outfit of his own.
Another attendee at the premiere revealed that Holland whistled when Zendaya came onto the stage.
Zendaya and Holland have never walked a red carpet together as a couple. However, they do not hide the fact that they are dating—and they are vocally supportive of one another and their work.
For example, Zendaya spoke about Holland’s Romeo and Juilet role in an interview released earlier this week: “[I] could not be more proud. I’m going to try to see as many shows as I possibly can,” she said.
The actress spoke to ELLE last summer about how she tries to balance what is public and private about her and Holland’s love story. She had been asked whether the public liking her and Holland as a couple makes it easier to accept the attention they get.
“Parts of my life, I accept, are going to be public,” she replied. “I can’t not be a person and live my life and love the person I love. 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.”
