AceShowbiz - Cole Sprouse has landed in hot water after talking about his past relationship with Lili Reinhart. The Jughead Jones depicter on "Riverdale" was labeled "loser" by fans for "humiliating" his ex-girlfriend on "Call Her Daddy" podcast with Alex Cooper.
Fans of "Riverdale" called out the 30-year-old actor for bad-mouthing his ex-girlfriend on International Women's Day. "He's a loser. I'd say he's humiliating Lili on International Women's Day," one person tweeted.
"glad we can see cole sprouse is a pretentious loser badmouthing his exes with private information in an attempt to grasp at the last shred of relevance before riverdale ends," someone else chimed in. A different critic remarked, "cole sprouse thinks he's giving matty healy but he's really just a loser."
Another pointed out that his statement may cause bad blood between him and Lili, who are currently working together on the ongoing Netflix hit "Riverdale". "Airing out private details about their break up while the show is literally still filming???? Cole Sprouse you are very strange," the said person wrote, with another adding, "They have not finished filming Riverdale Cole Sprouse is so unserious the last few months about to hell on that set."
The backlash emerged after Cole addressed his split from Lili on the "Call Her Daddy" podcast. During the candid chat, the "Five Feet Apart" star confessed that "it was really hard" to navigate a breakup with Lili since they worked together. He added, "I know we both did quite a bit of damage to each other."
"We are good friends now and we work really well together. I'm grateful I got to go through it with her but all the clichés of dating someone you work with are very much true," Cole shared. He also revealed the pair split "mutually," before changing his tune, admitting "It was me, I left, it was time." Elsewhere in the interview, he also divulged that he's been cheated on by "almost every single one" of his former partners.
Cole confirmed the break up in August 2020. At the time, the "The Suite Life on Deck" alum wrote on Instagram, "Lili and I initially separated in January of this year, deciding to more permanently split in March. What an incredible experience I had, I'll always feel lucky and cherish that I had the chance to fall in love. I wish her nothing but the utmost love and happiness moving forward. All I'll say about it, anything else you hear doesn't matter."
