Zendaya gushes over boyfriend Tom Holland as she reveals his ‘natural gift’ – days after shutting down split speculation

Zendaya recently gushed about her boyfriend Tom Holland when he revealed his ‘natural gift’ in a new interview, days after shutting down split rumors.

When asked by Buzzfeed to name the rizziest Dune: Part Two cast member, the actress, 26, mentioned Tom even though he wasn’t in the new movie.

‘Rizz is short for charisma, right? “Everyone has their own thing,” Zendaya responded.

‘YO “I think someone who has a beautiful charisma, not in the cast of Dune, but that I know personally and who works for me, is Mr. Tom Holland.”

Zendaya admitted that she’s rather “quiet,” so the Spider-Man star’s interpersonal skills have always impressed her.

“I’m more shy and kind of quiet, so it’s a little harder for me to come out of my shell. But it’s great just talking to people and getting to know them,” he explained.

‘You see it and you see it on talk shows and things like that. Naturally, he’s very good at it. Whereas in my case, I definitely had to take it out a little bit.

“She has that natural gift,” the Euphoria star concluded.

Buzzfeed showed off the clip of the interview on its Instagram on Wednesday and fans quickly took to the comments section to comment on Zendaya’s love for Tom.

‘I love how they talk about each other. “He’s so cute,” one commenter wrote, while another added, “She loves that man so much.”

Many of them liked the fact that Zendaya has a habit of “mentioning Tom without being asked in interviews.”

That same day, Tom proved to be an understanding boyfriend by sharing the new trailer for Zendaya’s movie Challengers on his Instagram Story.

The British heartthrob joked: ‘You’re not ready for this!’

He made sure to tag his Emmy Award-winning girlfriend in the post that was seen by his 66.1 million followers.

Last week, the couple put split rumors to rest by attending the Dune: Part Two after-party following the film’s big premiere in London.

For the evening, the Euphoria star looked elegant in a body-hugging, floor-length black dress with spaghetti straps and a scoop neckline.

Meanwhile, Tom opted for an all-black look, wearing a T-shirt and trousers with a stylish vest on top.

The Marvel star recently addressed rumors that they had split after Zendaya unfollowed all accounts on her Instagram page, including his.

Adding to fans’ concern is the fact that the Golden Globe-winning actress and the Spider-Man actor have not been photographed together since October 25, when they were photographed grocery shopping in Los Angeles.

However, a source with direct knowledge says the couple was seen together on New Year’s Eve, according to TMZ.

While attending the 2024 Critics Choice Awards last month, Tom looked dapper in a brown three-piece suit and shared several unusual comments about Zendaya.

He also revealed that the couple likes watching their first movie together, Spider-Man: Homecoming.

Speaking to Extra, Tom said: “Zendaya and I will, from time to time, watch Spider-Man 1 and remember when we were 19 and did those movies again.”

‘I love those movies and I love savoring those moments, so I try not to watch them as often as I’d like because it’s so special. It’s a great luxury, a great gift to be able to sit back and relive your youth.’

He also divulged that the Euphoria actress supports him in his career, explaining that she watched his series The Crowded Room frequently and gave him feedback.

Tom said: ‘She looked [The Crowded Room] with me while we edited it; she would send him episodes and ask him what he thought, so she’s definitely seen it more times than I would have expected her to.

It came after Zendaya unfollowed everyone on Instagram, including Tom.

He has yet to explain the reason for the move, which occurred early in the New Year.

The actress hasn’t been too active on social media across the board in recent months, and her X account hasn’t seen a new post since September.
