Zac Efron Breaks Silence After Ibiza Swimming Incident

Zac Efron speaks out after being hospitalized for swimming incident in Ibiza.

The “Dirty Grandpa” actor, 36, posted a message on his Instagram Stories on Sunday, along with a photo of himself exercising shirtless.

Efron wore a swimsuit as he lifted a pair of weights while lying on a pink exercise ball.

“Happy and healthy. Thank you for your well wishes,” he wrote on the photo.

His friend Caleb Davidge also shared a selfie of the couple at the same location. Davidge wrote two weightlifter emojis on the image.

News broke over the weekend that Efron had a “minor swimming incident” at a villa in Ibiza on Friday.

TMZ reported that the “High School Musical” alum was found inside the pool by two villa employees and was taken to the hospital “as a precaution.”

Efron’s rep tells PEOPLE the actor was released from the hospital Saturday morning.

A few days before the incident, Efron had been spotted on stage during DJ Martin Garrix’s performance at the Ushuaïa Ibiza Hotel and Beach Club.

He was also seen at the opening ceremony of the Paris 2024 Olympics on July 26.

The “Iron Claw” actor showed his support for Simone Biles after the U.S. women’s gymnastics team won the gold medal last week.

“I am incredibly proud of you @simonebiles,” he wrote on Instagram.

Efron surprised Biles, 27, on the Today show at the 2016 Rio Games.

The gymnast, then 19, was a huge fan of Efron and was shocked when they met.

“Just call me Mrs. Efron,” Biles wrote alongside a photo of Efron kissing her on the cheek.

While Biles is now married to NFL star Jonathan Owens, Efron appears to be single at the moment.

The “Greatest Showman” star split from his Australian girlfriend Vanessa Valladares in 2021 after less than a year of dating.

He is said to have met Valladares in June 2020 while she was working at the Byron Bay General Store in New South Wales, Australia.

According to the Daily Mail, Valladares quit his job to spend more time with Efron.

While they were dating, Valladares threw Efron a surprise birthday party in his home country, according to Page Six.

Efron has been living in Australia since the COVID-19 pandemic. He sold his longtime home in Los Feliz, California, for $5.3 million in 2021 and is currently starring in Netflix’s “A Family Affair” alongside Nicole Kidman and Joey King.
