Zendaya sparks engagement rumors with ring accessory at Golden Globe Awards

Zendaya is a beloved fashionista, but one of her recent accessories is getting its own star turn.

As expected, the 28-year-old actress captivated with her red-carpet look at Sunday night's Golden Globe Awards, where she was nominated for best actress in a comedy or musical film (she lost the prize to Demi Moore.)

The "Challengers" star served up Old Hollywood glamour in a saffron Louis Vuitton double silk satin column bustier gown. She paired the look with an eye-popping Bvlgari High Jewelry necklace and matching ring.

However, that ring — an oval-shaped tourmaline stone accented by a platinum band — took a backseat to a second ring she wore with the look. The jewelry, which appears to be a diamond ring, sent fans into a frenzy on social media, with some speculating that the accessory was Zendaya's way of revealing her engagement to longtime boyfriend Tom Holland, 28.

USA TODAY has reached out to representatives for Zendaya for comment.

"Finding out that Zendaya has a tiny 't' tattoo and an engagement ring was not on my golden globes bingo card 😭😭," @4folklovermore wrote on X, referencing a red-carpet photo of Zendaya that appears to show a tattoo of a lowercase letter "T." "I'm so happy for my girl."

During the awards show, a Los Angeles Times reporter asked Zendaya if she's engaged after the actress motioned to the ring during their exchange. In response, Zendaya reportedly "smiled coyly and shrugged her shoulders mysteriously."

Zendaya and Holland, who met while working on the 2017 superhero drama "Spider-Man: Homecoming," confirmed their relationship in the fall of 2021 after paparazzi photos leaked of the pair kissing inside a car.

In an April 2024 interview with British Vogue, Zendaya gushed about how her beau navigated his sudden rise to superstardom thanks to his breakout role in the "Spider-Man" franchise.

"We were both very, very young, but my career was already kind of going, and his changed overnight. One day you're a kid and you're at the pub with your friends, and then the next day you're Spider-Man," she told the outlet. "I definitely watched his life kind of change in front of him. But he handled it really beautifully."
