Tom Holland says Zendaya is 'the best thing that's ever happened to me'

Tom Holland is smitten with girlfriend Zendaya

Tom Holland's romance with Zendaya is the "best thing that's ever happened" to him.

The actors have been dating since meeting on the set of 2017 movie 'Spider-Man: Homecoming' and Tom has admitted he enjoys being able to work with his partner on the same projects as well as being able to spend their downtime together.

During an appearance on the 'Dish' podcast, he explained: "Studios love it, one hotel room. Separate drivers. We're not crazy now. Listen it's work, alright?!

"Oh God, yeah. It's a saving grace. Yeah, best thing that's ever happened to me.

"But it's just that perfect thing when you're on set and a director will give you a note that maybe you don't agree with, or I know that she doesn't particularly like, and it's just that like familiar glance at each other of like, can't wait to talk about that later.'"

Tom went on to reveal he will be spending Christmas with Zendaya and her family in the US this year after a previous holiday season was ruined by a bout of COVID-19.

He said: "I am gonna be in America this year, I'll be with my girlfriend's family, which will be fun. Where we'll be is a secret. The first time I spent Christmas away from home was in America, and unfortunately, not by choice ...

"I made two movies back-to-back through COVID. Did two press tours through COVID and did not get COVID once, the entire time. And after the 'Spider-Man 3' premiere was the last day of work I had, I was supposed to fly home the next day for Christmas, and I got COVID.

"So, I spent like two weeks in essentially the guest bedroom and just was by myself. It was a pretty rough Christmas, to be fair. This year will be great. This will be great."

He went on to add that he's hoping to bring both families together next year for one big Christmas celebration.

Tom said: "I think what we'd like to start doing is rather than like, spending it with each family each year is to bring the families together.

"That's what I think we want to do next time. This time, 'cause we're both actors, we're terrible at organising things. So it hasn't happened yet. The thought's there. The idea has been planted."
