Zendaya's Father Shuts Down Proposal Permission Claims


Last week after Zendaya debuted her engagement ring on the Golden Globes red carpet, it was reported that her fiancĂ©, actor Tom Holland, asked her father for permission to marry [click here if you missed that]. 

Zendaya's dad says it's not true...

Zendaya and Tom Holland got engaged over the holidays after the English actor allegedly sought permission from the Challengers star's father.
However, in an exclusive phone call with DailyMail.com, Kazembe Ajamu Coleman denied a report that suggested Tom, 28, asked him for his daughter's hand in marriage before the proposal.
When reached for comment about his reaction to Zendaya, 28, getting engaged to Tom, Kazembe told DailyMail.com that it was 'a bunch of crap' that was reported.
'That was a bunch of crap dealt out by TMZ,' he said before adding, 'I don't know what you're talking about.'
When pried by a DailyMail.com reporter for more answers, he refused to comment further.
The star's father has stuck by her side throughout her career and has accompanied her to various red carpets and events as her manager and bodyguard.
DailyMail.com has contacted reps for Zendaya and Tom Holland for comment.
Sources close to the newly engaged couple told TMZ that the Spider-Man star met with Zendaya's father 'months ago' to get his blessing before he got down on one knee.
The sources went on to say that it was 'an important step' for Tom since he's 'very traditional' and wanted to secure Kazembe's blessing.

Who even cares? This is not 1961. Nobody needs to ask for the father's blessing. I never understood that anyway. The 'bride" doesnt get her mother in law's blessing before she says I Do.

They asked their handlers for permission to wed. The parents no longer matter at this point.

I knew that was a lie because Zendaya don't even mess with her dad like that anymore Didn't he cheat on he mom or something?

He doesnt look like her NOW. Find some photos of him from 30 years ago so we can do a more accurate comparison.

SINCE WHEN DOES THE FAMILY'S 'MEAL TICKET' NEED PERMISSION OF HER PARENTS TO GET MARRIED TO HER SOON-TO-BE 'MEAL TICKET'?

BEFORE Y'ALL ZENDAYA FANS GET STARTED, I KNOW SHE'S A BIGGER STAR THAN TOM IS. BUT, I LIKE HIM BETTER BECAUSE HE'S MORE HUMBLE THAN HER.

Funny, no how matter how dark one of the parents is, mixed kids never procreate or marry someone who looks like that parent. Prove me wrong. And I don't care if it's the mama or papa that's dark. They always go light, bright or white, as if they're running from the melanin. But I suppose love is love, right? Whatever.

Oh, and don't even say Barack cause he was engaged to and in love with a YT woman before Michelle. And he married Michelle because she was necessary/good for his career and political aspirations. They wasn't even in love at first and she said the marriage was very rocky at first.

^^^ THANK YOU BECAUSE I CAME UP BLANK ON ANY NAMES. I MEAN, I ALMOST SAID LENNY KRAVITZ UNTIL I READ THE REST OF 10:52'S POST!
THAT'S AN AMZING LIST OF MIXED FOLKS WHO MARRIED SOME OF THE DARKEST & IN SOME CASES, UGLIEST MARITAL PARTNERS, TOO-EXCEPTIONS BOB MARLEY, MATT BARNES, & CINDY HERRON & TO AN EXTENT DOUG CHRISTIE.

^ I'll give you Bob & Faith but you tried it. I said DARK! Lol

Mariah?? Huh? You consider Nick Canon dark-skinned? Those people aren't even close to being dark-skinned, just darker than their mixed mate. And Keyshia ain't mixed. That lie she was spreading about being half-Italian was debunked. I'd add a click here if you missed that if I could but I can't.

I THINK THE CHALLENGE WAS "DARKER THAN THEIR MOTHER OR BALCK PARENT", I THINK.
KEYSHIA COLE IS ABSOLUTELY MIXED WITH ITALIAN & BLACK (FRANKIE SAID SO ON KEYSHIA COLE'S FIRST SEASON). I DON'T KNOW WHO TOLD YOU THAT LIE.

OKAY, I FORGOT ABOUT NICOLE MURPHY, TIA MOWRY, & JURNEE SMOLLETT-ALL TRUE.

Every mixed person I know had married or had kids with a Black person. I guess it depends on where you come from.

My husband asked my father (i didn’t know then) so i would hope my son would do the same or my daughter would have a man who would do that. I’d get over it as generational if it doesn’t happen that way but still disappointing.

Frankie lied or was wrong and Keyshia Cole's real father was later revealed to be a BLACK man, not Italian.

Anonymous said...

I think you're referring to her now deceased adopted father who died not long after Frankie had passed away. I'm a Keyshia Cole fan so I pay attention to what's going on w/ her.

Anonymous said...

No, I know she was adopted. I'm referring to the good looking man who came out and claimed her as his daughter some years ago. This was after her first son but well before she had the second. And I believe they did a DNA. Snitch posted on it.

IDK, Frankie was adamant that it was an Italian guy named Tony or something and that she abandoned him on the roadside when he ran into a railway and walked her pregnant self down the road.
I'm more inclined to believe Frankie over some random guy, given women usually know who their baby daddies are.
On Topic: I wonder if Zendaya's dad is misremembering whether he had been asked by Tom for Zendaya's hand in marriage?

Anonymous said...

Women know their baby daddies? You must not watch Maury. Frankie was an addict and a lady of the streets. Italian dude: You are NOT the father.

Anonymous said...

I trust what the woman/mother Frankie Lons said who her baby daddy of Keyshia Cole was b/c she was the 1 who screwed the Italia guy who fathered KC.
For the record, Frankie said she hadn't became :an addict" and "a lady of the streets"until after KC was born.
I'm not gonna go back n forth w/ you b/c unlike you, I have a life!
BLOOP!

Yo Keyshia real daddy came to be a black man. Also, mt stepsister is Italian and black from Virginia Beach. Her baby daddy is a chocolate man with dreada who looks nothing like my step dad. Stop reaching. Also, my grandmother's father was biracial and she married my grandfather who was dark skinned. Its 2025 not 1960 why you pressed about race? Because you don't like what you see in the mirror? Weirdo.

Your dumba** is way off base! ain't nobody pressed about race & we not talking about your genealogy so stfu cus you the only weirdo on here!

Tire of folks spreading lies about Keyshia Cole when her own momma told the story of KC's paternity while also discussing her other 6 kids & who their fathers are.
Like I repeatedly said: Mommas know more than any other individual involved who their baby's daddies are why question the paternity of KC when Frankie had already told KC & the world the name of her Italian pops & what led to her leaving him before KC was born.
That black guy you think is KC's dad is just out to seek what he thought he could get by claiming to be her father just like that other black guy who was on KC's reality show claimed to be her daddy, paternity test had been taken & proven that he wasn't in no way KC's father. He thought he'd be financially set by claiming to be her dad, but Frankie was adamant that the guy never touched her & KC's dad was Italian.
