Tom Holland became visibly emotional the moment he saw Zendaya on their wedding day, according to a source close to the couple.
Foreign media reported that the two actors married on Tuesday, August 4, at an estate in Surrey, England. Three days later, the pair were spotted in London riding in a vintage green Jaguar.
British outlet Metro also reported that Holland and Zendaya were seen on a date night after he broke down in tears at the wedding, according to a post shared by the publication on social media.
Despite the reports, fans have continued to ask whether the Surrey ceremony was the couple's only wedding, or whether an earlier one had already taken place, as had been suggested in previous months.
Conflicting accounts of an earlier ceremony
Zendaya's longtime stylist, Law Roach, had claimed that Holland and Zendaya secretly married back in March, and that the recent event was essentially a celebration of that earlier marriage.
A source who spoke to The Sun now says the Tuesday reception was in fact the couple's one and only wedding. According to the source, the earlier rumors were allowed to circulate and were even reinforced so that people would stay off the couple's trail, ensuring the day would be only about themselves and their closest friends and family.
The source said the couple had initially been annoyed by Roach's comments but later took the situation with humor. The source added that the couple now laughs about it, and that Roach himself attended the wedding this week, where everyone had a wonderful time. The source described the day as incredible, full of love and intense emotion.
A relationship years in the making
Holland and Zendaya met on the set of the first "Spider-Man" film and for several years kept their relationship out of the public eye, describing it as a friendship despite periodic rumors. Their relationship was confirmed in 2021, when they were photographed kissing inside a car.
Engagement confirmed in January 2025
In January 2025, Zendaya fueled engagement rumors when she appeared at the Golden Globes wearing a large diamond ring on her left hand. Days later, the couple's engagement was officially confirmed.
Holland later suggested that the wedding had already happened, after fake, AI-generated wedding images of the couple began circulating online. In an interview with Esquire, he said their relatives were not fooled by the images, since they had all been present at the real wedding.
The couple appears to have chosen to keep the details of their personal life away from publicity. Zendaya has explained in the past that she wants to maintain specific boundaries around her relationship.
