The Hollywood star was at a villa on the Spanish island when the incident occurred.

Zac Efron has been hospitalised in Ibiza after reportedly being found “in distress” in a swimming pool.

Sources told TMZ that the High School Musical star was at a villa on the island when the incident occurred and was discovered and pulled out of the water by two members of staff.

A representative for the 36-year-old told the news outlet that Efron was taken to hospital as a ‘precautionary measure’ and that he is ‘doing just fine’ now.

The Iron Claw actor had been travelling around Europe in recent weeks, spending some time in Paris for the opening of the 2024 Olympic Games before moving on to St Tropez, Mykonos and most recently, Ibiza.

He appeared on stage alongside DJ Martin Garrix at the iconic Ushuaia nightclub on the island last week and helped the Dutch performer get the crowd hyped up.

Efron recently starred in new Netflix rom-com A Family Affair with Nicole Kidman, marking the actors’ reunion 12 years after they appeared in The Paperboy together.

The California-born actor will be busy once again after his current holiday comes to an end.

He is signed on to star in a reboot of the 1987 comedy Three Men and a Baby, which is currently in pre-production.

Efron’s representative added that he had been discharged from hospital sometime yesterday and was recovering well from the incident which occurred on Friday.
