Zendaya’s stylist Law Roach is “happy” for his friend after she got engaged to Tom Holland. The fashion industry veteran has worked closely with Zendaya for over a decade, creating numerous iconic red carpet moments together.
Weeks after it was revealed that the ‘Spider-Man: No Way Home’ co-stars, both 28, took their relationship to the next level, their friends and family have been speaking out, and the fashion guru has now had his say. The couple first met on the set of Spider-Man: Homecoming in 2016.
“How do I feel about what? Happy,” he reacted to their big news, speaking to PEOPLE at the Fifteen Percent Pledge Gala in Los Angeles at the weekend. “There’s nothing else much to say about that.” Law Roach has been instrumental in Zendaya’s fashion evolution, helping establish her as one of Hollywood’s most influential style icons.
Tom’s dad, Dominic Holland, recently shared an insight into his son’s proposal. The couple has been known for keeping their relationship relatively private since they began dating.
“He had purchased a ring. He had spoken with her father and gained permission to propose to his daughter,” the 57-year-old author wrote in a post on Patreon. The tradition of asking for parental blessing remains common among celebrities, with studies showing 70% of proposers still seek permission first.
Dominic observed that his son planned out the proposal in meticulous detail before he popped the question to Zendaya. “Tom had everything planned out… When, where, how, what to say, what to wear…” he shared. The couple’s relationship has been closely followed by fans since their first on-screen collaboration.
Tom and Zendaya have so far remained tight-lipped about their engagement. Their privacy approach aligns with their historical handling of their relationship, rarely discussing personal matters in public.
The actress told Vanity Fair’s 2025 Hollywood Issue: “It’s actually strangely comfortable. It’s like second nature, if anything. You feel extra safe with the person you’re acting beside. I love working with him.” Their on-screen chemistry has contributed to the Spider-Man franchise’s success, with their films grossing over $3.5 billion worldwide.
“He’s so talented, and so passionate about what he does. He always gives things 1,000 percent, even if he’s absolutely worn down. I really appreciate that about him. It feels pretty normal. That’s how we met. Literally, at a chemistry read,” Zendaya admitted that she feels “extra safe” whenever she works with Tom.
Prior to that, Tom confessed to Googling Zendaya’s name. The actor’s admission reflects the modern reality of celebrity relationships in the digital age.
The loved-up duo went public with their romance back in 2021, and Tom revealed that he searches Zendaya’s name to “check” that she’s okay. Their relationship announcement came after years of speculation from fans and media.
“The last thing I Googled was actually Zendaya,” Tom shared, appearing on Samah Dada’s ‘On The Menu’ podcast. Their relationship has been celebrated for its authenticity and mutual support.
“I’m not on [social media], and I delete it when I’m not using it. So, sometimes, like, it’s more of a bit of an anxiety thing, but I’ll check to see if everything’s good and to make sure we’re all cool,” he explained. The couple’s approach to social media reflects a growing trend among celebrities to maintain digital boundaries.
“So I just give her a little Google and look [through] the news, and I’m like, ‘She’s good,'” he continued. Their engagement marks another milestone in their relationship, which has evolved from co-stars to life partners.
The couple’s engagement news has generated significant buzz in Hollywood, with industry insiders noting how their relationship has positively impacted both their careers. Their combined star power has made them one of entertainment’s most influential young couples, with their individual projects consistently achieving both critical and commercial success.
