Dylan Sprouse was involved in a scary incident after an intruder reportedly trespassed on his home he shares with wife Barbara Palvin.
According to multiple reports, Sprouse, 33, confronted the intruder on the couple’s Hollywood Hills estate in Los Angeles on Friday, April 17. (TMZ was the first to report the news.)
The Los Angeles Times reported that Sprouse tackled a man on the lawn after Palvin noticed “the creepy guy.” Palvin, 32, reportedly called 911 at 12:30 a.m., informing them that there was an attempted burglary at their home.
The Suite Life of Zack & Cody star reportedly had a gun and restrained the intruder until police arrived, per TMZ, who cited unnamed sources.

Police reportedly told The Times that the suspect was taken in on outstanding warrants and that no injuries were reported. Per the outlet, the intruder made it on to the property but not inside the couple’s house.
Us Weekly has reached out to Sprouse’s representatives for comment.
Sprouse first met Victoria’s Secret model Palvin at a party in 2017 and “clicked” but their romance got off to a slow start when she ignored his subsequent DM message for six months.
“I was very scared,” Palvin told British Vogue in February 2020. “I had this thought in the back, like, ‘Oh, but wait … are we going to get paparazzi’ed all the time?’”
After making their relationship official in 2018, the couple moved in together in Brooklyn in January 2019. Their relationship soared to new heights when Sprouse proposed in September 2022.
Sprouse and Palvin spoke about their engagement in a June 2023 interview with V Magazine.
“For me, at least, marriage is a promise of kind of loving you endlessly and being your partner. I’m nervous about the event,” Sprouse told the outlet. “Frankly, it’s about the first dance. I’m nervous about a choreographed dance.”
For her part, Palvin admitted that the engagement was more nerve-racking than the marriage itself even though she knew he was The One from the beginning.
“I mean, a man has time to prepare for the proposal — Dylan kept the ring for seven months before he asked the question — but for me, it was right then and there,” she said. “I knew since we started dating that I want to marry him, but it’s a big decision.”

In an interview with Vogue published in July 2023, Palvin recalled Sprouse’s proposal, which took place during a camping trip in California.
“It was very romantic,” she told the outlet. “I was suspicious and thought he might pop the question because he packed a shirt that was too nice for camping.”
The couple ultimately tied the knot in Albertirsa, Hungary in July 2023, exchanging vows at the same church where Palvin’s parents got married more than three decades earlier.
