Posting a vibrant image on his Instagram stories, Efron captivated fans as he showcased his strength, lifting weights atop an exercise ball, with the upbeat caption, "Alive, well, and thriving." Accompanying the empowering image, he added, "Thanks for the overwhelming support – it means the world."

A spokesperson for Efron officially confirmed to People magazine that while vacationing in a luxurious villa in Ibiza, the actor encountered a "harmless swimming accident" while indulging in the pool on Friday. Swiftly taken to the hospital for a thorough check-up, he was discharged the very next morning, leaving the hospital with a clean bill of health. "He's doing just fine," the representative reassured the public on Saturday.

While the precise details surrounding the incident remain under wraps, TMZ painted a picture of Efron being discovered by vigilant villa staff, who promptly rescued him from the pool's depths. Efron's team, however, declined to comment further when approached by The Hollywood Reporter.

Earlier in the week, the star of 'Family Affair' stole the spotlight at DJ Martin Garrix's pulsating performance at the renowned Ushuaïa Ibiza Hotel and Beach Club. Videos circulating online captured Efron, full of energy, grooving alongside Garrix onstage, a testament to his boundless vitality and resilience.
