Tom Holland Says He’s ‘In Love’ & Admits Zendaya Was His Childhood Celebrity Crush In Rare Comments

Tom Holland is getting candid about his romance with his longtime love, Zendaya, in rare comments about their relationship. The 27-year-old opened up to Buzzfeed on Wednesday about the secret to his “rizz,” or charisma, and the “Spider-Man” star joked that he doesn’t have any. “I’m locked up. I’m happy and in love so I’ve got no need for rizz,” he told the outlet. In the interview, Tom also confessed that his 26-year-old partner was his childhood celebrity crush. “Zendaya. Easy,” he explained. During a new conversation with The Hollywood Reporter, “The Crowded Room” actor spoke even more honestly about his girlfriend, who he met on set in 2017, and shares why they try to keep their bond private. “Our relationship is something that we are incredibly protective of and we want to keep as sacred as possible,” he shared. “We don’t think that we owe it to anyone, it’s our thing, and it has nothing to do with our careers.” Tom did give the outlet one glimpse into how they spend their quality time together though, revealing that he taught Zendaya how to golf. “I’ve given her a few lessons. She’s very naturally talented, a real athlete, so she picked it up really quickly,” he gushed.
