Tom Holland Has Been Cooking Dinners for Zendaya When She's Busy Filming, but with Very Mixed Results

A delicious dinner is one thing Zendaya doesn’t have to worry about after a long day of filming, thanks to Tom Holland,

The Spider-Man actor, 28, told Dish podcast hosts Nick Grimshaw and Angela Hartnett about his skills in the kitchen during the Dec. 18 episode.

“I really enjoy cooking,” Holland explained before adding humbly. “And I would say, I am a fine cook.

“I'm starting to like, venture into a lot of vegetarian cooking. My girlfriend's vegetarian,” the star said of Zendaya, 28, whom he first confirmed he was dating in July 2021.

“So I've been in Boston these past few weeks and she's been working so I've been doing a lot of the dinners,” Holland continued. Despite his best efforts in the kitchen, not all those meals were a success. “And um, they haven't been great. There's been a few like, ‘Let's just order-ins.’”

The Dune star has been in the East Coast city filming The Drama with Robert Pattinson for the last several months. The co-stars were photographed on set on Nov. 19 in Andover, Massachusetts, but Boston.com first reported that the Challengers actress was in the city on Oct. 17.

But Holland isn’t the only one in the relationship with culinary chops. “I actually love Zendaya's spicy vodka fusilli thingamajiggy that she does,” he complimented, calling the meal “delicious.”
