Tom Holland has picked up a nickname, and he did not choose it: “Bore-O.” RadarOnline reported that the label has been circulating since Holland made comments that led many people to believe he and Zendaya are already married.
The nickname plays on his own brand of non-alcoholic beers. Holland has said he has been sober since 2022, and he has been open about it.
One comment quoted in the report: “Tom has become the complete opposite of the stereotypical Hollywood leading man. He’s talking about stability, commitment, sobriety, and married life, and some people online have decided that’s ripe for parody.” The report added that the nickname is a term of endearment, and that much of the teasing is “clearly tongue-in-cheek.”
Not all of it, though. Some commenters “genuinely seem baffled that one of the biggest stars in Hollywood is married to a guy who prefers alcohol-free beer and quiet nights at home, and doesn’t stop talking about both.” For some of them, that is the definition of boring, and there is talk that Zendaya needs someone a bit edgier to keep her happy in the long term.
The wedding comments
Rumors that the couple had married had been going around for a couple of weeks. They started with AI-generated images. In a recent interview with Esquire UK, Holland confirmed that he and the “Euphoria” actress had already gotten married.
Asked whether he had to explain the images to his family, he replied: “No, because they were all there.” He added that this was all anyone would get out of him on the subject.
He was warmer about Zendaya herself. “I found my person,” he told the magazine. “She’s my best friend, and I’m the happiest I ever have been when I’m with her, but I also have never felt so supported and safe, ever. Period.”
The two have been linked since they started filming “Spider-Man,” though they have kept their relationship private. In the past couple of years they have shared a few rare glimpses of their life together.
