Just ask Hollywood stars Zendaya and Tom Holland.

At 5ft 10in, statuesque Zendaya towers over her 5ft 8in beau, especially in a pair of six-inch heels.

However, Brit actor Tom has insisted: "She's not THAT much taller . . . it's not like people say, 'How did you guys kiss?' "

Here, Josh Saunders looks at other famous couples of different heights – and how their relationships stack up.

NICOLE, 57, seems to loom over country music star hubby Keith, 56, in stilettos.

ROCK guitarist Benji, 45, needn't fret about being three inches smaller than his actress wife Cameron, 52.
