's mysterious hospitalisation was reportedly due to him ingesting water in his lungs. The High School Musical star was in the headlines at the weekend after it was reported that he had been taken to hospital following a swimming incident in Ibiza. It was unclear exactly what had happened, with a rep saying it was "minor" and that Zac was taken to hospital as a precautionary measure.
The star himself later moved to reassure fans that he was fine, without sharing further details. But has now reported that the actor was left "dazed" after a dive went wrong. Sources said Zac, 36, dived in during an early morning swim and that his chest hit the bottom of the pool.
He then ingested a "large amount of water into his lungs" and "showed signs of distress". As he was "momentarily dazed" he was taken to hospital where an X-ray reportedly revealed the water had cleared from his lungs. Zac has been taking some down time around Europe and the incident took place at a villa in Ibiza.
A source told TMZ at the time that the actor was "found inside the swimming pool by two people working at the villa who pulled him out of the water". His reps told the US site that he'd had a "minor swimming incident" and that he was taken to hospital as a precaution, before being released the next day. News of Zac's accident left fans concerned, with many posting about it on social media.
"Poor Zac I hope you’re OK," said one on X, as another said they were "so worried". The Hollywood star later addressed hi.
