It seems Zendaya and Tom Holland are ready for the next step in their relationship! The two Hollywood stars are one of the most fan-favorite couples in the entertainment industry, and while the pair prefer to keep their personal lives private, news about their recent engagement has been revealed.

The romantic proposal took place between Christmas and New Year's, as reported by TMZ. Tom had previously talked about their plans for the holidays, explaining that they would be spending their time in the United States with Zendaya's family. 

A close source revealed that the actor dropped "to one knee in a very intimate setting in one of Zendaya's family homes." The proposal was described as a very romantic and intimate moment, instead of being an over-the-top moment.

The sources also said that the families were not present for the engagement and it was just the two stars sharing a sweet moment together. Zendaya seemingly wore the huge engagement ring at the Golden Globes, and sparked rumors about the next step in their relationship.

The pair have been linked romantically since 2021, after becoming close friends on the set of 'Spider-Man: Homecoming.' The insider revealed to the publication that they have no pressure on making wedding plans, as they both have multiple projects lined up, including filming the next Christopher Nolan movie 'The Odyssey.'

"I'll be with my girlfriend's family, which will be fun. Where we'll be is a secret," he said. "[Secret] to you guys," he joked. "I'll know where we're going," Tom said on the 'Dish' podcast about his holiday plans. 

He also said that next year they would like to bring the two families together for the holidays. "I think what we'd like to start doing is rather than spending it with each family each year is bring the families together. That's what I think we want to do next time."
