Zendaya Names 1 Reason She 'Couldn't Be More Proud' Of Boyfriend Tom Holland

The former child star met Holland while filming 2017's "Spider-Man: Homecoming."

Zendaya could not be more proud of how her beau, Tom Holland , has handled his rise to fame.

In an interview with Vogue published Tuesday, Zendaya talked about seeing Hollands career change overnight following the release of 2017s Spider-Man: Homecoming and how hes navigated becoming a world-famous A-lister. The pair, who have been together for a few years, first met while filming Homecoming.

We were both very, very young, but my career was already kind of going, and his changed overnight, Zendaya said. One day youre a kid and youre at the pub with your friends, and then the next day youre Spider-Man.

The 27-year-old added that she watched Hollands life change in front of him when Marvel came calling , but that he handled it really beautifully despite the newfound attention. 

Zendaya had already experienced fame as a child star and fledgling pop act when she met Holland on the set of Homecoming. Although Holland had already starred in several movies prior to the MCU film, it would be his first movie as Spider-Man that turned him into an international star.
