Tom Holland and Zendaya are much more open about their relationship than they were the first time they reportedly dated in 2017, and last night, Holland posted one of his most public tributes to his partner.
Zendaya made history as the youngest recipient of the CFDA Fashion Icon Award, and she attended the New York City ceremony in a red Vera Wang crop top and skirt with Bulgari diamonds. Holland posted a photo of Zendaya in the look on his Instagram grid and captioned it, “Naaa stop it 😍. An incredible achievement for the most incredible person. Congrats @zendaya and @luxurylaw you guys deserve every bit of this.”

Zendaya spoke to InStyle earlier this year about what she appreciates most about Holland. “There are many things, obviously, that I appreciate,” she started. “In an actor way, I appreciate that he really loves being Spider-Man. It’s a lot of pressure—you take on the role of a superhero wherever you go. To the little kid who walks by, you are Spider-Man. I think he handled that so well. And seeing him at work, even though he’s not a Virgo, he is a perfectionist,” she said with a laugh.
On the subject of Holland’s perfectionist tendencies, Zendaya continued, “Our director allowed me to come in every day [of the shoot], and it was cool to see how he cares so much about his work and making it right. I watched him do a fight scene all day, which is exhausting. He’d do a move, come back to the monitors, watch it, and say, ‘I can do that better.’ I’d be like, ‘Dude, you got it.’ But he wants us to be perfect, and I really appreciate that.”
Holland is easy company, Zendaya added: “Yeah, he’s a fun time. Very charismatic, can make anybody feel comfortable and have a good laugh and a good chat. A good chat—I sound so British.”
