This will please the young girls who gather at the stage door every night after Tom Holland performs in Romeo and Juliet…
Because the Spider-Man star won’t be walking down the aisle anytime soon, his father says.
It was recently reported that Tom, who turns 28 next week, and Hollywood superstar Zendaya, 27, had talked about marriage.
But comedian Dominic Holland says: “They’re a happy couple, who knows?” But there are no marriages in the Holland house yet.
Fame has not gone to Tom’s head, insists Holland, who lives in Kingston Upon Thames.
‘Tom has three brothers and a mum and dad who don’t treat him any differently. We all want our children to do well. But I always try to keep it grounded.

She was the Royal Ballet’s youngest principal dancer before becoming a Strictly judge. Could Dame Darcey Bussell’s next move be mayor?
I ask only because Her husband, the former stockbroker Angus Forbes, is leading a campaign to directly elect a mayor in Plymouth, Devon, where the couple own a house.
Signatures from 5 percent of the electorate are needed to start a referendum.
“A directly elected mayor puts people and places above politics,” Forbes says. ‘This is the future. To create a space and opportunity for Plymouth to really show its potential.

Anne: Why couldn’t I be the queen of evil today?
Known as The Queen of Mean when she presented The Weakest Link, Anne Robinson says the BBC would never accept her rudeness to contestants these days.
“I couldn’t bring my flavor to it anymore,” he tells Saga magazine.
‘It would be totally unacceptable from a political point of view. You can’t tell people, ‘Why are you fat? Do you think you eat too much?
The 79-year-old, who presented the contest until 2012, adds: “We’ve all become too sensitive.”
It is currently presented by comedian Romesh Ranganathan, a prominent mental health campaigner who ran this year’s London Marathon in aid of the charity Campaign Against Living Miserably.

Jonathan Yeo’s bright red portrait of King Charles has divided critics but clearly got people talking.
The Philip Mold gallery in Pall Mall, London, where it will be on display for a month, has been inundated with visitors.
“We had 350 people on Friday morning,” Mold tells me.
‘After he has been with me, he will go to Buckingham Palace. We think it will be on display there during the summer.

Revealed, 60th birthday gift that left Diana’s brother crying
Turning 60 can be a cause for celebration. But Earl Spencer, who reached the milestone yesterday, I understand, was overwhelmed with emotion.
Princess Diana’s younger brother threw a party at Althorp House, his ancestral home in Northamptonshire, and one particularly touching gift left the historian in tears.
“I had 30 friends and family stay for the weekend,” explains Charles Spencer. “A friend took me to Althorp Lake on Saturday.
‘Your husband handmade this amazingly beautiful canoe for me, as a surprise, over many months. I cried when I saw it. It’s almost too exquisite to row.
‘The husband said, ‘I thought it would be useful when you visited your sister.’ What an overwhelmingly beautiful thought.
The canoe appears on the shore next to Oval Loch in Althorp, the 13,000-acre estate where Charles and Diana grew up with their two sisters.
Diana was buried on a small island in the middle of the lake, which can only be reached by boat.
Althorp is open to the public in July and August, the anniversaries of Diana’s birth and death. Visitors can leave floral tributes and letters to Diana at a memorial near her resting place.
Lord Spencer explained: “It has been decided to bury Diana, Princess of Wales, in the grounds of Althorp Park, where her family can properly care for her grave and her children can visit her privately.”
He had originally planned to lay Diana to rest in the family graves at a local church, but said he was “concerned” for her safety.
Spencer’s relationship with Diana was strained at times. She asked him for a cottage on the estate, Garden House, as a “retreat” in 1993, and his refusal to grant her request came as a shock.
He feared, possibly rightly, that his family would suffer interference from the police and the media.
In fact, he offered her several alternative homes on the sprawling estate, but she did not accept any of them.

He’s the TV adventurer who’s been chased by lions and dragged underwater by snakes, but Bear Grylls says men shouldn’t be afraid to cry.
‘The last time I cried? Last night, watching the Bradley Cooper movie, Maestro,” says the 49-year-old scoutmaster.
‘I cry a lot and I cry more as I get older. If men weren’t designed to cry, we wouldn’t have tear ducts.
“Nature and the good Lord do not give us many things that do not have a purpose.”
Waiting to see the King, Kim?
More accustomed to drinking Cosmopolitans in Manhattan, Sex And The City star Kim Cattrall sipped tea at King’s country retreat over the weekend.
The actress, 67, and her boyfriend, Russell Thomas, a radio engineer 14 years her junior, visited Sandringham, where the Royal Family spends Christmas.
“It was a wonderful day,” says Liverpool-born Cattrall, who said she and Thomas had watched the Coronation together.
Unfortunately, Charles wasn’t at Sandringham, so Kim will have to visit her again.
