February 12, 2025 By Emma Dowdeswell

Recently, Movie star Zendaya was seen at the Golden Globe award ceremony, repping an orange customized ball gown, bold diamond statement necklace, and some sponsored rings, Although her jewelry tied in perfectly with the outfit, one did not appear like the others. 

Fans of Zendaya could easily spot the ring on her left index finger. Some speculated that it was another sponsored jewelry item, some speculated it was an heirloom, and many others noted its special placement. 

Zendaya was wearing an engagement ring to the Golden Globes! 

Family members and friends have reported some details of the engagement, the Hoofprint has put together some of our favorite facts about everyone’s favorite celebrity couple’s engagement. 

The diamond and the destination

People Magazine reports that the ring appears to be a 5.02-carat East-West Cushion Diamond button-back ring from Jessica McCormack, listed in the engagement section on the jewelry brand’s website. This means that the estimated price of the ring could be anywhere from $29,000 to $320,000, However, many have speculated that it could be more. 

Holland hinted at his “secret” holiday plans with his fiancée during the December 18 episode of the Dish podcast. He mentioned, “I’ll be with my girlfriend’s family, which will be fun. Where we’ll be is a secret.” he said of his plans to spend Christmas in the U.S. “[Secret] to you guys,” he joked. “I’ll know where we’re going.”

During this vacation, it is speculated that Holland proposed in Zendaya’s childhood home, which included both friends and family, along with a romantic touch. They do not plan to rush the wedding, and friends have commented that they are currently ‘soaking up the moment’. 

2- Private but passionate

The two met on the set of the infamous Spider-Man movies, consistently staying as friends until they were spotted kissing in a car in July 2021, confirming their off-screen romance. In September of that year, they went Instagram official, with Holland sharing a selfie of the pair in honor of Zendaya’s 25th birthday. In the caption, Hollandcalled the Euphoria star “my MJ”.  Since then, the couple has maintained a very private relationship, barely making the relationship open to the public, but still making it clear that they are in it for the long haul, Tom Holland recently stated, “We don’t think that we owe it to anyone, it’s our thing, and it has nothing to do with our careers.”. The following month, he revealed that his relationship with Zendaya is the thing he holds “most sacred” in life. “I don’t talk about it. I try my best to keep it as private as possible,” he said while appearing on the On Purpose with Jay Shetty podcast. “We both feel very strongly that that is the healthiest way to move on as a couple.” Zendaya also shares the same feelings as her new fiance, stating in Elle Magazine, “Parts of my life, I accept, are going to be public. I can’t not be a person and live my life and love the person I love,” she said.

“But also, I do have control over what I choose to share,” Zendaya continued. “It’s about protecting the peace and letting things be your own but also not being afraid to exist. You can’t hide. That’s not fun either. I am navigating it more than ever now.”. 

Fans are ecstatic about the recent engagement, many taking to social media to express their congratulations and feelings about the couple. Although this is one of the biggest celebrity engagements of the year, it is important to respect the couple’s privacy.
