This joke-turned-rumor ultimately spread like wildfire, with many comments circulating on Twitter.

As one would imagine, most tweets on the subject were comprised of sad reaction memes.

Continuing the trend of the popular dark humor Twitter thread, there were a few “edgy” responses as well.

Other tweets centered on people specifically reacting to Tom Holland allegedly procreating with Zendaya.

Twitter users also imagined how Zendaya and Tom Holland must be reacting to the rumor.

I know Zendaya isn’t really pregnant but imagine Tom Holland’s face if he logged into Twitter yesterday and saw a tweet saying his girlfriend was pregnant and he thought she decided to tell the whole world before him 😭😭. pic.twitter.com/a6XbbcO927

Rather than reacting to the rumor, others chose to clown the fact that it spread so rapidly with no credible source.

Some were a bit more passionate in their replies.

Zendaya is NOT pregnant and THIS is why she don’t talk to us!

Rapper and celebrity troll Lil Nas X also chimed in.

i hate twitter because i’m sitting here about to congratulate zendaya via dm about a baby that doesn’t exist

— obamas cousin (@LilNasX) June 15, 2022

Finally, Zendaya herself spoke on the rumor on Wednesday through her Instagram Story, officially putting the subject to bed.

“See now, this is why I stay off Twitter,” she began. “Just making stuff up for no reason… weekly.”

It’s worth reverberating that, while the news spread on Twitter, it seemingly started on TikTok.

lmaooo twitter users actually believed that zendaya is pregnant ☠️☠️ yall gullible af pic.twitter.com/0ezmcSwMrH
