A rare public statement of sorts about their relationship.

Everyone — and I mean everyone — loves Zendaya and Tom Holland.

In this parasocial world of celebrity worship, Zendaya and Tom are fan favorites as a couple. They’re also pretty quiet about their relationship —it’s not like they don’t appear in public or anything, but they’re not talking about it all the time, you know?

So, Zendaya recently unfollowed everyone on Instagram — including, yes, Tom. This, combined with the fact that they are not exactly walking around in our faces all the time, led some to speculate that the pair had sadly split.

So, TMZ got video of a photographer bothering Tom and a friend on the streets of Los Angeles. He asked Tom about being cast in a new Back to the Future movie despite the fact that no such movie exists. Weird question!

“No, no, no, absolutely not,” he said.
