Tom Holland stepped respectfully, yet awkwardly, out of the way when fans approached Zendaya on a night out in London.

While they took a picture with Zendaya, they didn't recognise that Holland was standing right there, too.

The couple were spotted leaving Chiltern Firehouse Hotel in central London when they were stopped. Chiltern Firehouse is a 5-star luxury hotel, which contains a restaurant known for an "underlying American accent" from Chef Richard Foster.

Although the restaurant is a bit on the pricier side, they both opted for rather understated looks.

Holland kept it casual, donning a pair of stonewashed jeans and a navy short-sleeved shirt.

Zendaya, by comparison, was slightly more dressy, opting for a long, flowing top with on trend cut-outs, which she paired with sleek black trousers.

Tom and Zendaya are considered to be one of Hollywood's biggest power couples.

The pair got together after starring alongside each other in Spider-Man films. Holland played the leading role of Peter Parker, while Zendaya starred alongside him as his love interest, MJ.

The duo's working relationship eventually blossomed into a friendship before turning into something romantic.

Tom previously said to Teen Vogue that his first meeting with Zendaya was "embarrassing".

Speaking in 2016, Holland said: "My first meeting with Zendaya was actually, very embarrassing for me.

"It was just one of those moments where it just wasn't my smoothest moment."

Luckily for Tom, she didn't seem to notice the Brit star's mishap and both stars seemed to hit it off from the beginning.

She recalled: "I don’t remember this, but he says that there was some kind of awkward hug, shake thing."

Holland continued that he "didn't really know" what Zendaya would be like but he was "so surprised and so happy" upon working with her.

"She’s one of the most professional and hardworking people I’ve ever met in my life," he gushed.

Zendaya echoed Tom's sentiment and said "good dude" Tom is "one of the nicest people I think I’ve ever met".

Following the duo's gushing comments about each other, the pair were spotted at a multitude of premieres and celebrity events together, and it's safe to say, the chemistry was electric.

And it seems the pair are still keeping their "Love On Top" after recently being snapped singing Beyonce's mega hit to each other at one of her concerts.
