- Tom Holland explained to UNILAD how his carpentry skills won over Zendaya.
- The "Spider-Man" star said early on in their relationship he fixed a door at her house.
- "I was like, 'I'm gonna fix that door for you.' And now, we're in love," he said.
Tom Holland revealed one of the ways he won over Zendaya in the early days of their relationship.
While talking to UNILAD, he said that his skills in carpentry showed Zendaya that he's handy with tools.
"Carpentry is something that I just really enjoy. I love it," Holland said (6:35 mark). "I've made my mum's kitchen table. I made my mum's office. I built all the cupboards in my bedroom. I built a little bird house with my Granddad."
"I fixed my girlfriend's door once really early on in our relationship," he added. "I was hanging out at her house and her door was broken. I was like, 'I'm gonna fix that door for you.' And now, we're in love."
The "Spider-Man" franchise stars were rumored to be an item for years until finally being photographed kissing in July 2021.
In a recent profile in The Hollywood Reporter, Holland spoke about his relationship with Zendaya.
"Our relationship is something that we are incredibly protective of and we want to keep as sacred as possible," he said. "We don't think that we owe it to anyone, it's our thing, and it has nothing to do with our careers."
Holland can be seen currently in the Apple TV+ series "The Crowded Room." Zendaya will next be seen in "Challengers," opening in theaters on September 15.
