Zendaya Shows Off Gold Band at Oscars 2026 Amid Tom Holland Marriage News

Zendaya and Tom Holland may have entered a new chapter in their odyssey of love—but the actress is keeping any details close to her chest.

Two weeks after her longtime stylist Law Roach teased at the 2026 Actor Awards that the pair had privately tied the knot, the Dune star cheekily addressed rumors she and Tom officially took the next step.

During her March 16 appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live, host Jimmy Kimmel brought up the internet going "berserk with stories you might actually be married to Tom," which prompted Zendaya to playfully reply with, "Really? I haven't seen any of that."

However, the Spider-Man star confirmed she has seen those AI wedding photos of the couple circulating online, of which she had to clarify in real life.

"Many people have been fooled by them," she admitted, "while I was just out and about in real life and people are like, 'Oh my God, you're wedding photos are gorgeous,' and I was like, 'Babe, they're AI. They're not real.'"

Jimmy went on to play a clip from Zendaya's movie The Drama (which she stars alongside Robert Pattinson), with Tom's head instead pasted over that of her costar's as the characters posed for a wedding photo.

Law first broke the news when he attended the Actor Awards (formerly the SAG Awards) on March 1. 

“The wedding has already happened,” he told Access Hollywood. “You missed it.”

With a laugh, the 47-year-old added, “It’s very true.”

The timing of Zendaya and Tom’s potentially private ceremony came as a shock as Law himself previously admitted that they still had “a lot of time” to prepare for the big day.

“The process hasn't even started yet,” the stylist told E! News in July. "Zendaya is working on so many movies. She's now filming the next iteration of Dune, so she's away doing that. It's so many movies, so we have time." 

Beyond the timeline update, Law—who has worked with the Challengers actress for more than a decade—expressed how special it is to have a sideline seat to the couple’s romance.

“I know that they really love each other and they have for a really long time," he continued. "The fact that the world has been able to share in that love story, I think it's really beautiful."

And though Tom and Zendaya—who revealed their engagement when she donned an engagement ring at the 2025 Golden Globes—prefer to keep their relationship out of the spotlight, the Spider-Man actor has given a glimpse at his appreciation for their relationship.

"I'm lucky that I have someone like Zendaya in my life," he said during his SmartLess podcast appearance in July 2023. "It's interesting being in a romantic relationship with someone that is in the same boat as you."

As he put it, “You can share your experiences and all that sort of stuff—and that's worth its weight in gold."

As for why the Spider-Man: No Way Home costars, whose romance was confirmed in 2021, choose to keep their love story to themselves?

"Our relationship is something that we are incredibly protective of and we want to keep as sacred as possible," Tom told The Hollywood Reporter in June 2023. "We don't think that we owe it to anyone, it's our thing."

When Is Zendaya and Tom Holland's Wedding Date?

Zendaya and Tom Holland, engaged since December 2024, weren't interested in rushing down the aisle.

"I’m resting up for 2026," the actress' longtime stylist Law Roach quipped to E! News in April 2025 when the subject of Zendaya's big day was broached.

Several months later, he told E! at the Las Culturistas Culture Awards that "the process hasn't even started yet." As he explained, "Zendaya is working on so many movies. She's now filming the next iteration of Dune, so she's away doing that. It's so many movies, so we have time. We have a lot of time."

The Dress

Presumably there will be dresses, one for the vows, another for the reception and others for nuptial-adjacent activities. (Though that isn't to say there won't be a stunning outfit involving pants somewhere in the itinerary.)

But what there won't be, Law predicted, is a glossy chronicling of how it all came together, the pro guessing that "nobody will ever see" her bridal look.

Zendaya and Tom are "trying to be as private as possible," the Project Runway judge explained on a May episode of Complex's Please Explain. "There won't be a Vogue spread or there won't be pictures of the wedding and the people who she will invite will be really respectful of their privacy, so it will be a really beautiful dress that no one gets to see."

The tiniest sample size of possibilities: Louis Vuitton's Nicolas Ghesquière and Michael Kors are among the designers close to Zendaya's heart, and other favorite labels include Versace, Valentino and Tom Ford.

The Guest List

Obviously the Tom-Zendaya nuptials have the potential to be an extremely star-studded affair should they go that route.

In addition to parents and siblings (Zendaya has three half-sisters and two half-brothers on her father's side, while Tom has three younger brothers), the bride's list could include pals Timothée Chalamet, Bella Thorne and Hunter Schafer, and the groom is close in real life with Jacob Batalon, who plays Peter Parker's best friend Ned in the MCU.

"She's really become a sister," Timothée told Variety in 2022 of his Dune costar. "I’m so grateful to count her as a partner and a sister and a friend."

Storm Reid, who played Zendaya's little sister on Euphoria, told E! News in September 2025, "I want to be a flower girl. I want to make that happen." But even if she doesn't get to make her way down the aisle, Storm added, "I'm just so excited for her. Whenever that happens, she deserves all the best that the world has to offer."

The Entertainment

There will be dancing, obviously, but as for more curated entertainment, Holland recently struck up a friendship with Benson Boone—who is free on that day, whenever it comes.

"Immediate yes, of course, of course," the "Slow It Down" singer told E! News at the 2025 American Music Awards in May when asked if he'd answer the call to perform for the happy couple. "I'm not gonna pass that over."

And, really, will the marriage even be legal if the newlyweds don't engage in a lip sync battle?

The Rings

Zendaya may have provided a glimpse when she began sporting a delicate gold band on the fourth finger of her left hand. 

And though she slipped the accessory on in place of her engagement ring, no doubt the understated piece will complement the 5.02-carat East-West Cushion Diamond Button Back Ring from British jeweler Jessica McCormack. Per the jeweler's website, the bauble boasts a Georgian style cut-down setting in 18-karat white gold and yellow gold.

"He had purchased a ring," Tom's dad, comedian Dominic Holland, wrote in a January 2025 Patreon post, confirming a proposal had taken place. "He had spoken with her father and gained permission to propose to his daughter. Tom had everything planned out… When, where, how, what to say, what to wear…"

The Location

Zendaya and Tom could pretty much get married anywhere, but what's not to like about tying the knot in the groom's native England or thereabouts?

The Spectacle

Or lack thereof.

As Zendaya put it to GQ in 2021, "I think loving someone is a sacred thing and a special thing and something that you want to deal with and go through and experience and enjoy amongst the two people that love each other."

Because, as she explained in a February 2026 Interview magazine conversation with The Drama costar Robert Pattinson, “At the end of the day, you’re a public figure, there’s nothing you can do, but some things are meant for yourself and for your loved ones."
