    Tom Holland and Zendaya got matching tattoos before getting engaged

    The 28-year-old actor is believed to have popped the question to his 'Spider-Man: No Way Home' co-star over the Christmas period but before they agreed to get married, they made another commitment by getting one another's first initial inked onto their bodies on 27 November.


    Lily Jarnryd told how the pair visited the Boston Tattoo Company and she inked a small 't' just underneath 28-year-old Zendaya's armpit, and a tiny 'z' at the top of Tom's ribcage.

    She added to People magazine: "They were lovely to meet and it was a lot of fun!"

    News of the couple's engagement emerged after fans spotted the 'Challengers' actress sporting a huge diamond ring at the Golden Globe awards over the weekend, and it was later claimed that, while she initially planned to keep the news secret, Zendaya was ultimately too "excited" to stay quiet.

    A source told UsWeekly: "Tom figured the holidays were the best time to propose in a very low-key way.

    "She didn't want anything over the top."

    "Zendaya tried to keep it a secret but was very excited to show off her ring. She didn't think people would notice but didn't care either way."

    The insider noted that Tom - who met Zendaya in 2018 and the pair went public with their relationship in 2021 - feels as if it is "right time" for marriage even though she never put any "pressure" on him to pop the question.

    The source said: "Tom wanted to propose because he feels he is at the right time in his life and feels ready to settle down.

    "They had many conversations over the years, but there was never any pressure. Zendaya is giddy and excited. She knew it might have been coming but never put pressure on it."

    The celebrity duo - who have so far starred in three 'Spider-Man' films together -tend to keep their relationship out of the public eye and don't often appear on red carpets together but Tom recently admitted that Zendaya is the "best thing" that has ever happened to him.

    During an appearance on the 'Dish' podcast, he explained: "Studios love it, one hotel room. Separate drivers. We're not crazy now. Listen it's work, alright?!

    "Oh God, yeah. It's a saving grace. Yeah, best thing that's ever happened to me.

    "But it's just that perfect thing when you're on set and a director will give you a note that maybe you don't agree with, or I know that she doesn't particularly like, and it's just that like familiar glance at each other of like, can't wait to talk about that later."
