The 2025 Golden Globes red carpet buzzed with speculation as Zendaya, nominated for her performance in "Challengers," arrived wearing what appeared to be an engagement ring on her left hand. The 28-year-old actress stunned in a custom burnt orange Louis Vuitton dress, but it was the unexpected accessory that captured everyone's attention.
The ring in question features a large cushion-cut diamond set east-west on a delicate gold band, noticeably different from her other Bulgari jewelry pieces worn that evening. Fashion observers were quick to point out that the gold band didn't match her other accessories, fueling speculation about its significance.
While Zendaya attended the ceremony solo, her absence from boyfriend Tom Holland wasn't unusual. Holland recently explained their red carpet philosophy to Men's Health, stating, "Because it's not my moment, it's her moment, and if we go together, it's about us." This thoughtful approach to public appearances has characterized their relationship since they went public in 2021.
The couple's professional and personal lives continue to intertwine. Zendaya recently shared insights about their working relationship with Vanity Fair, noting, "It feels pretty normal. That's how we met, literally, at a chemistry read." She praised Holland's dedication, adding, "He's so talented, and so passionate about what he does. He always gives things one thousand percent, even if he's absolutely worn down."
The evening showcased Zendaya's sophisticated style, complemented by her longtime collaborator and image architect Law Roach. Her ensemble included a High Jewelry necklace in platinum with a paraiba tourmaline and over 48 carats of diamonds, alongside matching accessories from Bulgari.
Representatives for both Zendaya and Holland have not responded to requests for comment about the engagement speculation. The couple is reportedly set to reunite professionally in Christopher Nolan's upcoming adaptation of Homer's "The Odyssey," scheduled for release in 2026.
