TMZ previously reported Saturday that Efron was found in the pool by villa staff and was pulled out of the water.

The day before the incident, Efron appeared to be in good spirits. In a video posted to TikTok, the “A Family Affair” actor can be seen partying at the Ushuaïa Ibiza Hotel and Beach Club, dancing on stage with DJ Martin Garrix, who performs on Thursdays.

Like many other Hollywood hunks, Efron has been spotted in many cities this summer, including Paris and Saint-Tropez.

The “High School Musical” star has spoken openly about her sobriety in the past, telling Elle magazine in 2016 how getting sober changed her life.

“I found a structure,” he says. “It led me to a balance of opposites: you get out of life what you put into it. There was a time when my morning routine consisted of waking up and Googling myself. But that ended dramatically and instantly, probably three years ago. I realized that seeing yourself in other people’s photos is not living your own life. I wasn’t really myself anymore. A lot of my hobbies had fallen by the wayside. I couldn’t skateboard or surf for fear of being followed. Crossing the line of fear is what leads to greatness.”
