Recently, the internet erupted as pictures released of Tom Holland and Zendaya kissing seemed to confirm a romantic relationship between the pair.
The couple co-starred in the 2017 Spider-Man movies and were pictured kissing one another in Holland’s car while they waited at a red light.
Rumours about the couple being in a romantic relationship have been swirling since they film the movie in which Holland, 25, played Peter Parker and Zendaya, 24, played a classmate named Michelle.
Here is a complete timeline of their blossoming relationship:
2016
Shooting for the Spider-Man film in which the pair co-starred in began in 2016. Off-set, they would hang out in between shooting and Holland posted a picture of them in a pool with a friend on his Instagram account.
In promoting the movie they were in photo shoots together and in a post on Instagram, showing them on the cover of The Hollywood Reporter, Zendaya wrote: “Honored to share it with the very best...Spider-Man himself @tomholland2013”.
2017
Following the movie, rumours about the pair dating picked up. A source seemed to confirm the rumours as they told People: “They’ve been super careful to keep it private and out of the public eye but they’ve gone on vacations with each other and try and spend as much time as possible with one another.”
But, Zendaya was quick to hit back at the reports, tweeting: “Wait wait...my favorite is when it says we go on vacations together HA!”
