And the younger generation will prob know him as Cole Sprouse off of Riverdale’s twin brother who has great Twitter bantz. Dylan and Cole Sprouse are simply the best brother duo ever.

Everyone in the world (including us) seems to be talking about Cole right now, ‘BUT WHAT ABOUT DYLAN?’ we hear you cry. Well, let’s find out where on earth he’s got to.

We're pleased to let you know that Barbara and Dylan have dated quietly for over three years and are even known to their supporters as 'Palvin'. In August 2020, the couple launched an Instagram series documenting their adventures during the coronavirus pandemic.

The series, which they've shared on Instagram, is titled "Breaking Ground," and they continued it for 26 episodes until March 2021.

Last year, they celebrated their third anniversary, with them both sharing pictures to their Instagram stories.

They captioned the posts, "3 years baby! I love you."

Is Dylan Sprouse still acting? What movies and shows has he been in?

Aside from The Suite Life, The Suite Life on Deck and the peak of television that was That's So Suite Life of Hannah Montana (DO YOU GUYS REMEMBER THAT?), the Sprouse twins have also proved to be pretty bloody talented.

They've appeared in a number of movies together on the big screen, both sharing roles and as individual characters.

Their first movie role came in 1999 when they were cast together as the ADORBZ Julian McGrath in Big Daddy.

Cole is currently starring in Netflix’s Riverdale, and Dylan stayed out of the spotlight between 2010 and 2017, focussing on his degree of video game design from New York University's Gallatin School of Individualized Study.

However, in 2017, he returned to acting, starring in various short films and independent films such as Carte Blanche. Dylan also played the role of Trevor in 2020 film After We Collided.

Was Dylan Sprouse in Friends?

Since they were 8 months old, brothers Cole and Dylan shared so many movies, shows, and roles. However, the role of Ben in Friends - the only son of Ross - was played solely by Cole Sprouse and not Dylan in season six to eight, and here's why.

Since Ben had a very limited role in Friends - both in the episodes he appeared and the series as a whole - Friends only needed one actor to cover the role. Hiring both of them would have been unnecessarily expensive.

What is Dylan Sprouse doing now?

Just when you thought Dylan Sprouse couldn’t get any more multi-talented, he’s only bloody gone and bloody opened a bloody bar and micro-meadery.

It’s called All-Wise Meadery, and is described on its Instagram as an “All-American, locally sourced, & heathen owned micro-meadery and bar”. The bar, in Brooklyn, New York, opened earlier this year.

You can follow the bar on Instagram here: @allwisemeadery

Dylan always had slightly longer hair than Cole, even in their Suite Life days. And we’re BIG fans of his egdy ‘do.

He's now chopped off his luscious locks, and has gone for a much shorter crop - meaning that Cole now has the longer hair of the two!
