Zac Efron was briefly hospitalized in Ibiza, Spain, over the weekend after he experienced what his representatives are calling a “minor swimming incident," according to multiple reports.
TMZ first reported that Efron was taken to a hospital in Ibiza on Friday night after he was found in the pool of a villa by two workers. It's unclear what caused Efron to be in distress, but his team told People that he is doing “fine” and was released the next day. They also added that Efron was taken to the hospital as a precautionary measure.
On August 4, 2024, following multiple reports of his hospitalizations, Efron took to his Instagram stories to comment on the news directly. “Happy and healthy,” Efron wrote over a picture of himself working out in the sun. “Thanks for the well wishes,” he added.
The High School Musical star appeared to be on a European vacation over the last few weeks following his promo tour for the Netflix movie A Family Affair — in which he starred alongside Nicole Kidman and Joey King. The actor was spotted at Ushuaïa Ibiza Hotel and Beach Club, and footage taken by a club-goer showed Efron walking on stage and dancing during DJ Martin Garrix's set. He was met with loud cheers from the crowd.

Ahead of his trip to Ibiza, Efron attended the 2024 Paris Olympics for the opening ceremony last week and to watch Simone Biles and Team USA gymnastics win gold on July 30, 2024. Efron shared a photo of Team USA to his Instagram story, tagging Biles and writing how “proud” of her he was. He also posed next to the Seine in Paris during the rainy opening ceremony.
