Tom Holland takes cooking lessons from brother Sam to impress fiancée Zendaya
Zendaya
is on set, Tom Holland alternates in the kitchen. To keep him from crashing and burning while attempting to put dinner on the table, his brother, Sam Holland, who is also a chef, has been giving him recipes.
People report that 25-year-old Sam recently published his new cookbook, Kitchen Kickstart.
Sam told The Times that while Zendaya was filming in Boston, he made sure his famous sister had some simple meals prepared. He took special care with the vegetarian options, knowing Zendaya follows a plant-based diet, and sent the recipes to Tom, who was handling dinner duties during her shoot. Sam said Tom went through each recipe and enjoyed them thoroughly.
The culinary expertise of the Holland brothers
Sam joked that even his own family can manage his cooking. He noted that Tom, his twin Harry, 26, and their younger brother Paddy, 20, are likely all just beginner-level cooks. Tom, however, isn't willing to give up the kitchen himself. On the Dish podcast with Nick Grimshaw and Angela Hartnett last December, he shared that he enjoys cooking and has been exploring more vegetarian dishes, partly because his girlfriend follows a vegetarian diet.

While some meals did well, others didn't
Tom explained that while Zendaya was working in Boston, he had been cooking most of the time. Not all of the meals were masterpieces. 'They haven't been great. There have been a few like, "Let's just order in," he acknowledged.
He clarified, however, that there are others who are capable of handling dinner duty. He described Zendaya's spicy vodka fusilli thingamajiggy as "delicious" and stated, "I actually love it."
Despite not having a professional kitchen, the couple, who became engaged late last year, appears to have everything covered with Zendaya's pasta, Tom's attempts at vegetarian dishes, and Sam's detailed instructions.

Kimi Antonelli with girlfriend Eliska Babickova (Image credit: Instagram) The F1 fraternity made the most of the three-week summer break by spending time with their partners on picturesque vacations, many choosing Sardinia. Among them was Kimi Antonelli, who enjoyed some quality time with his girlfriend Eliska Babickova. While Babickova regularly shared snaps of him on Instagram, Antonelli had stayed quiet — until now. He finally treated fans to a much-awaited vacation photo dump on Instagram. Kimi Antonelli and Eliska Babickova's new vacation pictures go online Kimi Antonelli posted multiple photos and videos from the trip with the caption 'Summer vibes' alongside a desert island emoji. The post included romantic shots with Eliska Babickova, glimpses of the food they indulged in during the seaside getaway, moments with friends who joined them briefly, and more. Fans loved the update and filled the comments with excitement. One wrote, 'Him and his girlfriend are so cuteee.' Another said, 'I loveee this couple.' A playful comment compared him to Oscar Piastri: 'Battling Oscar in the I-love-my-gf championship.' Another fan added, 'Enjoying the summer break in style—hope this helps you with your confidence after a well-deserved rest.' Pointing to the romantic photos, one more wrote, 'Summer break well spent.' by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Wildlife Cameras Capture The Unthinkable Ohi Blog Undo A few days earlier, Babickova had also posted her own vacation dump, with the caption 'vacationing,' featuring more cozy moments with Antonelli, including a cover photo of them in a close embrace. Kimi Antonelli yet to secure his first F1 win Kimi Antonelli has delivered a decent performance in his rookie season, stepping into Mercedes after Lewis Hamilton's move to Ferrari. While he started the year strong, his form has dipped slightly in recent races. His teammate George Russell recently defended him. According to RacingNews365, Russell said, "As a young driver you've got to look at it objectively, in terms of his own performance. You could argue he's actually performing better than he did at the start of the year when you look at the lap time deficit. In Canada, when we were on pole, he was fourth and half a second behind, but in Spa he was only three-tenths off me. And that was the difference between being out in Q1 or making it through to Q3. ' He added, 'The team have made it very clear he shouldn't worry about the results. He's still doing a very good job considering his experience.'
