Zendaya and Tom Holland 'on the same page about kids' amid their latest engagement news

Zendaya and Tom Holland recently confirmed their engagement. According to an exclusive source, both stars engaged in discussions about starting a family before their announcement. "Tom really wants to have a family, and he and Zendaya are on the same page about having kids," the insider revealed to Us Weekly. The confirmation of their engagement comes just days after a source shared the news on January 6.

The insider mentioned that "Tom is absolutely in love with her." Holland, 28, remains dedicated to building a family while also advancing his career. He embraces an old-fashioned outlook, believing in having children relatively young. Both actors share a familial background. Tom is the eldest of four siblings while Zendaya, 28, is an only child but has five older half-siblings from her father's previous relationship.

Tom Holland shared his fatherhood plans in a recent interview with "Men’s Health." He expressed a desire to halt his acting career once he had children. "When I have kids, you will not see me in movies anymore," Tom stated. He emphasized a preference for a quieter life, focusing on golf and parenting.

Zendaya showcased a diamond ring at the Golden Globes on January 5, fueling engagement rumors. "Zendaya tried to keep it a secret but was very excited to show off her ring," the insider added. The proposal occurred during the holidays in a casual setting, reflecting Zendaya’s desire for simplicity.

Tom Holland’s father, Dominic Holland, confirmed the couple's engagement on his Patreon blog on January 10. He mentioned that Tom purchased the ring himself and had received her father's permission before proposing. Their relationship began sparking romance rumors in 2017, which saw a brief pause during Zendaya's prior involvement with Jacob Elordi from 2019 to 2020. After rekindling their romance, the couple became public after being photographed kissing in July 2021.

A separate source noted, "These two are the real deal." Their strong friendship laid a solid foundation for a lasting relationship, making family support a central theme of their bond. Zendaya showcased her engagement ring at a film screening for "Challengers," completing her elegant outfit with a leather blazer and tulle skirt. Her look captured both the excitement of the moment and her fashion-forward style.
