Tom Holland, known for his role in the “Spider-Man” films, prefers to skip red carpet events for his girlfriend Zendaya’s movie premieres. He believes that the focus should be solely on her, not both of them as a couple. In a recent interview with Men’s Health, Holland explained, “It’s her big moment, not mine, and walking together might shift the attention to us as a couple. ” Holland was absent from recent premieres like “Dune: Part Two” and “Challengers, ” but they did attend public events together, such as NBA playoff games.

Holland has always had mixed feelings about fame and the limelight. Growing up as a child actor, he's not always comfortable with the public eye. In a past podcast interview with Jay Shetty, he expressed, “I love making movies, but Hollywood isn’t my favorite place. It’s intimidating. ” Holland even took a year off from Hollywood in 2023 to escape the stress of the industry.

Despite his reluctance to stay in the spotlight forever, Holland’s love life has sparked public interest. He has been dating Zendaya since 2021, although they have not tied the knot yet. While rumors circulated about a potential engagement, Zendaya’s mother shut down the speculation with a cryptic social media post.

In his latest interviews, Holland hinted at a future away from the cameras, jokingly saying, “When I have kids, you won’t see me in movies. I'll be a dad, play golf, and probably just disappear. ”
