Tom Holland protects girlfriend Zendaya from aggressive paparazzi during dinner date

His Spidey senses were tingling.

Tom Holland became a real-life superhero when he protected his longtime girlfriend, Zendaya, from aggressive paparazzi during a dinner date.

In footage obtained by TMZ, the “Spider-Man: Homecoming” star politely pushed aside a photographer so the actress could get by as they exited the Nine Orchard Hotel in New York City Thursday.

Zendaya appeared gracious that the photographer complied, smiling at him while following her beau as they held hands.

Holland and the “Challengers” star, both 28, also encountered overzealous paparazzi at another point in the night.

A social media video showed the pair being swarmed by a mix of fans begging for autographs and paparazzi as they exited their black SUV.

Holland used more force to clear a path for Zendaya that time, as he turned around to shove a person out of the way and grabbed her arm to yank her out of the chaos.

She appeared thankful that he stepped in and could be seen smiling as she escaped from the scene.

The pair was out in the Big Apple to celebrate the launch of Holland’s non-alcoholic beer brand, Bero.

They matched in maroon ensembles, with the “Euphoria” star dressed to the nines in a form-fitting leather Louis Vuitton dress that featured a plunging neckline and thigh-high slit.

Holland, for this part, looked dapper in a matching T-shirt, black dress pants and white Prada kicks.

Zendaya and Holland have known each other since 2016, when they were cast in “Spider-Man: Homecoming.”

Though they started as friends, rumors swirled that something more was brewing behind closed doors.

They unofficially confirmed their romance in 2021 when they were caught kissing in Holland’s car.

While the pair keep their relationship primarily private, they have no problem professing their love for one another every so often.

In 2021, Holland raved about the “companionship” he feels with Zendaya and even said she acts as his “shoulder to cry on” when he needs it.

The next year, Zendaya said it was “great” feeling his “support and love” as a young woman in Hollywood.
