Something about the past few years spent in isolation and a global existential threat has made the younger generation more empathetic about their relationships with the people around them. It seems as though the aftermath of the pandemic created enough ripples in Tom Holland and Zendaya’s life, too, considering how the couple took a major step in their relationship barely a year after officially walking down the red carpet together.
Tom Holland and Zendaya Secure Their Richmond Home
7 months after the world went crazy over a creepily-shot zoomed-in paparazzi image of Tom Holland and Zendaya in a car together, and 2 months after the pair officially walked down a red carpet together, news started pouring in about the newly in love couple buying a home together in the UK. The house, rated approximately at USD 4 million, was reported to be located in Richmond, a 15-minute drive from the neighborhood where Tom Holland grew up, Kingston upon Thames.
After the reports were confirmed, the couple’s UK home was soon put up with high-tech security and an 8-foot steel gate to prevent intruders, trespassers, and the paparazzi. Reports at the time claimed that Holland spent nearly $500,000 on renovating their England home and reinforcing its security measures which would not be an exaggeration, considering how upset both of them were when their privacy was invaded back in July 2021.
In the US, Zendaya already owns a $4 million-worth luxurious property that sits on a secluded and paradisiacal setting in L.A., paired with its very own guest house and open pool surrounded by California palm. The couple, dividing their time between Hollywood and England, now possesses homes in both places – close to work as well as family.
Tom Holland and Zendaya’s Relationship Timeline
After months of speculation, the Spider-Man: No Way Home stars, Tom Holland and Zendaya were captured together (in a moment that they had otherwise intended to keep private) by the paparazzi in July 2021. Page Six published the images of the couple kissing in Holland’s car while out on a drive through the L.A. suburbs. In November, Holland verbally and officially confirmed his relationship with his co-star during an interview with GQ while talking about the image leak but simultaneously respecting Zendaya’s privacy saying,
“It’s not a conversation that I can have without her. You know, I respect her too much to say… This isn’t my story. It’s our story. And we’ll talk about what it is when we’re ready to talk about it together.”

On 29th November 2021, Tom Holland and Zendaya officially walked down the red carpet together at the No Way Home premiere. Sources and close friends have commented about how the couple has been incredibly supportive of each other – “They both challenge each other and balance each other out.” Over the years, the public has seen the two flying across the world to spend time with each other in between projects, sharing meals with friends, and going on walks. The fans, now, have come to identify the pair as an emerging power couple as both of them take over the industry, one project at a time.
