Details of Zac Efron's Swimming Incident Revealed

UPDATE Aug 6, 2024 1:30 AM CDT

According to sources who spoke to TMZ, Zac Efron's hospitalization last week was preceded by the actor diving into a pool during an early-morning swim with friends in Ibiza. He reportedly went so deep his chest hit the bottom of the pool. He ended up ingesting water into his lungs, the sources say, and onsite security team members helped him out of the pool when he exhibited signs of distress. He was reportedly "momentarily dazed" upon exiting the water and was taken to a hospital to make sure the water had been cleared from his lungs. Despite a chest x-ray clearing him to leave within hours, he stayed at the hospital a bit longer to avoid the photographers waiting to snap a picture of him outside.

It's still not clear exactly what led to Zac Efron's hospitalization after a "swimming incident" at a villa in Spain last week, but the 36-year-old actor appears to be doing just fine now. In his Instagram story Sunday, Efron posted a picture of himself lifting weights atop a yoga ball captioned, "happy and healthy," People reports. He also thanked fans for their "well wishes." A friend of the actor also posted a selfie of the two together in the same location, reports E! News, which notes Efron does not often post on social media.
