One of the most telling things Tom Holland has said about his relationship with Zendaya was in an interview with Men’s Health, where he explained why he does not walk red carpets with her at her events, saying simply, “It’s not my moment, it’s her moment, and if we go together, it’s about us.” That one sentence is a lesson in itself. Knowing when to step back, cheer from the side, and let your partner have their moment entirely is a rare quality, and it is one this couple has shown repeatedly. When Zendaya won her second Emmy, she told E! News that the first person she texted was her boyfriend. He was not standing next to her on that stage. He did not need to be.
