“You’ve got to have levity in life. And thankfully, no one was hurt, and there was no more violence than what happened and so it’s all okay.”
Emergency services were called to the couple’s home about 12.30am after a report of an attempted burglary and police apprehended a man at the scene.
Sources told TMZ that Sprouse confronted the alleged trespasser and held him down until police arrived. Officers were told the 33-year-old actor had a gun and confronted the man with the weapon before tackling him.
Police insiders claimed the situation was more like trespassing than an attempted burglary, but Sprouse and Palvin didn’t want the man, who didn’t make it into their house, booked for trespassing.
Instead, LAPD officers arrested the suspect, who was described as a “creepy guy”, on outstanding warrants. No injuries were reported after the incident and the suspect has not been named.
Sprouse and Palvin, 32, met at a party in 2018 and married in 2023, and the Beautiful Wedding actor previously said he feels a sense of satisfaction waking up with Palvin every morning.
He told E! News: “I really like mornings in general. Mornings are really great, just because there is like a very calm and collected satisfaction of waking up next to your wife, which is a cool thing to say, by the way, like, ‘my wife’, and also in a Borat voice, it’s fun too.
“But when you roll over and you see your beautiful wife and she’s asleep and then you see your dog and you’re in your house and the things that you like, created, it’s very calming and it’s very nice and it makes you want to work harder.”
