Olivia also removed her Instagram account, as her posts were flooded with hateful comments from Tom’s fans who were angry with him, as he broke-up his relationship with his fellow actress, Zendaya – they met on the set of the movie “Spider-Man: Homecoming” (2017), in which Tom landed the title role and Zendaya played Michelle “MJ” Jones.
