Is Zendaya in a relationship, who is she dating and who are the famous faces she now calls her exes?

Zendaya is back in our lives, co-chairing the Met Gala, starring in big movies like Challengers, keeping us on edge with news of Spider-Man 4 and Euphoria season three, all while being in a relationship the entire world loves, with boyfriend Tom Holland..

The Emmy-award winning actress has become a household name thanks to her incredible career, but fans want to know who she was dating before Tom, who her ex-boyfriends are, and who she's been linked to in her dating history.

From her brief romance with Jacob Elordi to her relationship with Tom let's look at who the former Disney star has had romances with and who are just rumours...

Zendaya starred alongside Tom Holland in the 2017 blockbuster Spiderman: Homecoming and the pair struck up a close and long lasting friendship which turned into an actual relationship in 2021.

When they first started popping up in each other's Instagram stories and walking red carpets together, many fans were certain this was another co-star love story, but they denied the romance rumours for years.

They rarely discuss their relationship publicly, but they've made it no secret over the past couple of years they're still going strong and are very much in love.

Euphoria co-stars Zendaya and Jacob Elordi had everyone talking when it was rumoured they were in a relationship after being spotted kissing in New York in early 2020.

Before this, they had often referred to each other as 'best friend' and even that they were 'siblings' to each other – but after filming the show for almost a year, it seems they were more than just pals.

They were spotted out and about in New York the following months- however, things came to an abrupt end when Jacob was spotted hand-in-hand with supermodel and now-ex Kaia Gerber in September 2020.

In June 2017, Zendaya opened up to Vogue about her first experience of heartbreak the year prior, calling the relationship her 'first love'.

Four months before their split he'd bought her a miniature Schnauzer named Noon.

She said: “It wasn’t a good ending. You know you’re OK in a breakup when your first thought is not, 'What did I do wrong?' It’s, 'That was the dumbest decision of your life, and you’re going to regret it forever'."
