Even global superstar Zendaya finds herself occasionally envious of her partner’s abilities. While promoting her upcoming film The Drama, the actress revealed the one skill possessed by fiancé Tom Holland that she has never been able to master: the perfect backflip. The lighthearted confession came during a press appearance alongside co-star Robert Pattinson. The duo, who play a couple in the new A24 romantic dark comedy, engaged in a playful card game where Pattinson asked who in her life she was most "jealous" of. Don't Know if There's Any Such Thing as 'perfect Marriage': Zendaya.
Zendaya Jokes About Tom Holland’s Backflips
Zendaya didn’t hesitate to name Holland, though she clarified the nature of her envy. "I wouldn’t call it jealous, exactly, but when it comes to my person being able to do backflips and stuff like that... that kind of pisses me off," she joked, miming a flip for emphasis. "Like, what do you mean you can just do that?" Holland’s acrobatic prowess is well-documented, rooted in years of intensive dance and gymnastics training long before he suited up as Spider-Man. While Zendaya is celebrated for her own vast talents in acting, singing, and fashion, she admitted that gymnastics remains out of reach. "It’s unfair. I’ve never been able to do a backflip. I wish I could," she told Pattinson, who jokingly replied that the "ship has sailed" on her learning now.
Zendaya Wedding Rumours
The playful comment comes amid a frenzy of speculation regarding the couple's relationship status. While Zendaya and Holland have been famously private since going public in 2021 and confirming their engagement in early 2025, recent clues have fans convinced they may have already tied the knot. At the 2026 Actor Awards earlier this month, Zendaya’s longtime stylist and friend, Law Roach, sparked a firestorm by telling reporters, "The wedding has already happened. You missed it." Adding fuel to the fire, Zendaya has been spotted wearing a gold band on her ring finger and has leaned heavily into "method dressing" for her current press tour, appearing in a series of white, bridal-inspired gowns.
