For years, fans have been hoping that Spider-Man stars Tom Holland Zendaya are secretly dating. But it looks like his true flame might be closer to home - family friend Olivia Bolton.

The 23-year-old was first spotted out in London at a music festival with the “mystery blonde” at the beginning of June. They were snapped watching Black Eyed Peas and Robbie Williams at the fest all while engaging in plentiful PDA.

His Gwen Stacy lookalike squeeze was revealed to be Olivia Bolton, a family friend he met through his parents.

Twitter fans expressed were quick to show their distress that Holland isn't actually dating Zendaya, who plays MJ in the franchise reboot. Other fans (the very committed ones) found photos of Holland with Bolton from when he was much younger.

The down-to-earth actor is still close to his family. He previously told Evening Standard, “My parents and brothers are such cool people that they wouldn’t really let my life change that much. I’ll come home from a hard day’s work and my mum will tell me to do the dishes, ‘It’s your turn’.”

According to The Sun, the couple has reportedly been quietly dating for months and only went public this summer.

It looks like the new rap song about Tom and Zendaya’s rumored relationship was wrong - the real life superhero doesn’t have to “pray up” about keeping Zendaya by his side at all.

It’s fitting that he’s now coupled up, since in June he told Elle he’s “definitely a relationship person.”

Now, the world will never know if he actually dated Euphoria star Zendaya. Still, their friendship will live on in the form of dance videos galore.
