Zendaya and Tom Holland Had a Cute, Public Date Night at the Warriors vs. Lakers NBA Game
Relatively private British-American couple Tom Holland and Zendaya followed in the footsteps of another famous and relatively private British-American couple, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, and attended a NBA game this week in one of their most public dates of the year. Zendaya and Holland were filmed sitting courtside at the Los Angeles Lakers vs. San Francisco Warriors playoff game last night, with Zendaya sporting a Warriors cap. Zendaya is from Oakland, CA, making them her home team. She paired the cap with glasses, a white T-shirt, and a Dendera zodiac diamond Virgo charm necklace.
She enthusiastically showed off her Warriors cap at one point. The Warriors won, besting the Lakers 127 to 100:
Zendaya and Holland skipped this year’s Met Gala. The actress spoke to Vogue Italia last year for its July issue about why her longtime fans have been very accepting of her keeping certain parts of her life private.
“Many of them have grown with me and have watched me evolve in different parts of my life and career and with that, many of us being around the same age, have similar outlooks on life, similar thoughts or even just hopes and wishes for the future, whether it be for my career or the world,” she said. “They’re really understanding that I’m human, even the hardcore ones, and they want me to be happy and I genuinely feel that from them. They’re really respectful of my boundaries and the things that I choose to keep a little bit more private and keep for myself.”
