Tom Holland has largely kept the details of his marriage to Zendaya private, but he’s no match for a classroom full of curious kids. The 30-year-old actor appears in an upcoming episode of the web series ‘Celebrity Substitute’, where he teaches stunts to young students in New York City who waste no time asking him about his personal life. A new clip reveals Holland’s attempt to navigate questions about his relationship status while maintaining the carefully cultivated mystery he and his co-star have maintained.
Tom Holland dodges questions about his marriage to Zendaya
According to PEOPLE, Holland dodges questions about tying the knot with his ‘Spider-Man’ and ‘Odyssey’ co-star. When student Victor asks directly, “Are you married?” Holland responds with visible hesitation. “Uh, that’s a really important question,” she says before pausing to choose her words carefully. “I’m… You guys obviously haven’t been media trained like the publicists I’m talking to.”

In a solo interview segment, the young student presents his theory on camera, declaring that Holland is “definitely married. I don’t know why he avoided my question.”The student’s intuition appears to be in line with confirmed reports about the couple’s relationship status. In June, Zendaya confirmed in an interview with Esquire that she and the actor had married. Also, in March, Zendaya’s longtime stylist Law Roach publicly announced that her “wedding has already happened. You missed it,” suggesting that the ceremony took place long before the official confirmation.
Tom Holland shares his favorite thing about Zendaya
Another student, Kayson, asks if Holland is taking Zendaya, 29, “on a date.” Holland answers without hesitation: “Yes, all the time. My favorite thing to do.”

The exchange captures the ease with which Holland talks about their relationship when the children ask them direct personal questions, in contrast to his deliberate evasiveness when the word “married” is explicitly mentioned.
