Zendaya hilariously calls out Tom Holland's NSFW tag on Instagram

Oh, Tom. This is only gonna fuel those dating rumours even more, isn't it?
Good news, everyone! After spending the last two weeks crying about Avengers: Endgame, co-stars Tom Holland and Zendaya have come to our rescue and are back on the press trail scene for Spider-Man: Far From Home which means there's about to be an onslaught of banter and endless amounts of content.
In fact, we didn't even have to wait very long for Tom's first hilarious slip up of the tour. In a picture uploaded to Instagram of him, Zendaya and Jacob Batalon, he managed to tag Zendaya in a very NSFW place, which she then had to call out in his comments below after everyone started freaking out.
In what might be the most iconic Instagram slip up of all time, Tom tagged her right on his crotch. Yeah, that's gonna do absolutely no favours in trying to dampen those dating rumours. Is it?

Why is it killing me that Tom Holland tagged Zendaya right on his crotch in this pic? Is this a subliminal message, Tom? pic.twitter.com/OyjFrblpgv

In case you aren't in the know, Tom and Zendaya have been surrounded by dating rumours for a while now. They've both denied them many times but they just won't go away...
After seeing the commotion on Twitter and on Instagram, Zendaya then responded to her strategically placed tag, first responding with a comment under the picture reading: "I'm assuming because you don't know how to work ig, that's the reasoning behind my name placement."
She also replied to a couple of tweets that went viral, and sent a few cheeky replies to a couple of fans who responded with some messy @ replies.
Nah he’s just Instagram stupid

Following Zendaya's comment - and her subsequent tweet clarifying the whole thing - Tom then corrected the tag (it's now on her face) and thanked her for alerting him to the... mistake.
"Thanks @zendaya for making me aware of my obvious blunder," he wrote.
We may never know why Tom tagged Zendaya in such a precarious place! Maybe it was a... private... joke? Or maybe he's just really really shit at Instagram? We'll go for the latter.
