Zendaya Sparks Engagement Rumors at Golden Globes with Eye-Catching Ring

Zendaya turned heads at Golden Globe Awards, not just for her stunning red carpet appearance, but also for a sparkling piece of jewelry that ignited a flurry of speculation, CNN reports.

The actress, nominated for her role in “Challengers,” arrived at the Beverly Hilton in an elegant, custom Louis Vuitton saffron gown featuring a dramatic pleated train.

Zendaya’s old Hollywood glamour was further enhanced by a newly debuted bob haircut, a look her stylist Law Roach said was inspired by trailblazing Black entertainers like Joyce Bryant. However, it was a large diamond ring prominently displayed on her left ring finger that truly captured the internet’s attention.

While it remains unconfirmed whether the ring is a gift from her boyfriend, actor Tom Holland, or simply a glamorous accessory for the night, its presence sparked immediate engagement rumors across social media. Many fans interpreted the ring as a subtle, unannounced engagement announcement. This theory is further fueled by the fact that, though she removed other jewelry for a quick outfit change later that evening, the ring remained on her hand.

Zendaya’s jewelry for the evening included a diamond-encrusted Bulgari choker, further contributing to the overall sophisticated and high-glamour aesthetic.

Not everyone, however, bought into the engagement speculation. Some social media users suggested that the ring could be a strategic PR move, or simply a rental piece for the occasion.

This wouldn’t be the first time Zendaya has faced engagement rumors. In 2023, a gold ring worn on the same finger also prompted similar speculation, which she later shut down.

The actress’s sartorial choices, however, were undeniable successes. Her custom silk satin bustier gown, paired with matching satin heels, quickly became one of the most discussed looks of the night. Roach himself stated on Instagram that the look was styled “in honor of Diahann, Eartha, Dorthy and Joyce,” paying tribute to the pioneering legacies of Diahann Carroll, Eartha Kitt, Dorothy Dandridge, and Joyce Bryant.

Following her red carpet appearance, Zendaya changed into a slinky sequined gown for the ceremony, but the mystery surrounding the diamond ring continues to swirl, leaving fans wondering about its true origin and significance.
