Zendaya made sure to let fans know exactly where her heart stands during a red carpet moment that quickly set social media buzzing, as reported by Page Six.

The “Dune” star, 29, attended the “Spider-Man: Brand New Day” event in Mexico on Monday, where a fan boldly shouted, “Will you marry me, please?” as she made her entrance.

Without missing a beat, the actress laughed and fired back with a witty three-word response:

“You’re too late!”

Zendaya’s cheeky answer was a nod to her relationship with her longtime partner and “Spider-Man” co-star Tom Holland.

The playful moment came just weeks after Holland, 30, also joked about marriage during press interviews promoting “The Odyssey.”

The British actor appeared with Matt Damon, Anne Hathaway, and Robert Pattinson for a Wired segment where the group answered fan questions.

When one fan asked, “Did Athena (played by Zendaya) love Odysseus (played by Damon) romantically?”

Holland chimed in before anyone else, joking, “No. Because she’s married to me,” drawing laughter from both Damon and Hathaway.

His teasing had an extra layer of meaning given Holland’s recent confirmation that he and Zendaya privately tied the knot. In an interview with *Esquire* last month, the actor addressed speculation about their supposed wedding photos circulating online.

Asked if he had to tell his family that the AI-generated pictures of the ceremony were fake, Holland simply replied, “No, because they were all there.”

Although he stayed tight-lipped on details, Holland did open up about their relationship, describing it as a supportive and steady partnership amid the demands of their careers.

“Our business can present very stressful situations, and it’s really nice to have a bedrock of a relationship that will stand the test of time,” he told the outlet.

He also shared heartfelt words about Zendaya, calling her his “person” and his “best friend.”

“I’m the happiest I have ever been when I’m with her,” Holland said. “But I have also never felt so supported and safe, ever. Period.”

The actor has continued to refer to Zendaya as his wife in recent appearances, including a stop on the UK-based “Dish” podcast.

When asked which of his “The Odyssey” co-stars he would most like to vacation with in Greece, Holland didn’t hesitate. “I think probably my wife would be pretty good,” he said, joking that it would be odd to choose anyone else.

The comment drew laughter from listeners and further confirmed what fans had been speculating for months. Holland and Zendaya have been romantically linked since 2017 and got engaged over the 2024 holidays.

While the couple has kept the exact date of their wedding private, Zendaya’s close friend and longtime stylist Law Roach casually confirmed the marriage earlier this year.

Speaking to *Access Hollywood* on the red carpet at the 2026 SAG Actor Awards, Roach said, “The wedding has already happened. You missed it.”

Zendaya’s latest red carpet moment underscored her lighthearted and relatable nature, even as her marriage continues to fascinate fans.

Her quick quip not only entertained the crowd but also offered a subtle reminder that she has already found her happily ever after — and she is not shy about celebrating it.
