LOS ANGELES — English actor Tom Holland's father, Dominic Holland, believes that the
actor and Zendaya's relationship will stand the test of time.
In a Patreon post shared, Dominic Holland wrote about his
oldest child's romance with the actress, 28, and how he believes they are meant
to last, despite the challenges that come with being a couple in the public
eye, reports 'People' magazine.
"I do fret that their combined stardom will amplify
their spotlight and the commensurate demands on them and yet they continually
confound me by handling everything with aplomb", Dominic, 57, said of the
pair, who recently became engaged.
Then expressing his belief that "show business is a
messy place for relationships and particularly so for famous couples as they
crash and burn in public and are too numerous to mention", Dominic
highlighted his own relationship with his wife Nikki Holland as "an example"
for Tom, 28, and Zendaya to look to.
Dominic wrote, "With Nikki helming this family and my
'wisdom' on tap and a study in getting things mostly wrong and yet somehow
right at the same time, I am completely confident they will make a successful
union."
As per 'People', Tom and Zendaya, who play onscreen couple
Peter Parker and Michelle "MJ" Jones in the Spider-Man movies,
initially maintained for years that they were just friends and not romantically
involved.
They were eventually spotted kissing in a car in July 2021,
confirming their off-screen romance.
Earlier this month, Zendaya stepped out at the 2025 Golden
Globes sporting a diamond ring on her left hand, sparking engagement
speculation.
A family source later confirmed to 'People' that the pair
are set to wed.
"He's always been crazy about her. He always knew she
was the one. They have something very special," another insider said of
Tom, detailing that the star shared the engagement news with friends.
