Zendaya recognizes that fans are deeply invested in her relationship. “I just feel like for me there is a level of a parasocial investment in my personal relationship, which I understand,” the actress, said.

 “I hear it, but I also have my own little boundaries of what I like to bring up and talk about, but then also what I’m also willing to share, you know?”

She believes that protecting these private moments helps keep their relationship strong. It’s not about hiding from fans, but about “preserving things” for themselves. Finding that balance, she suggests, is part of living publicly. “There’s a balance between hiding and then also just, like, living your life and enjoying your life and protecting things that are special to yourself,” she said.

She says everyone needs boundaries. This helps protect their feelings and keeps them feeling like themselves of work. Holding certain moments away from public discussion allows them to retain meaning.
