Cole Sprouse has said that his mom lost all the money he made from appearing in Friends and Big Daddy as a child star.
The ex Disney star, who spent years as one of the leads on The Suite Life of Zack and Cody, has given a tell-all interview where he covered a whole range of issues he wanted to get off his chest.
Speaking on the latest episode of the Call Her Daddy podcast, he spoke about how almost all of his ex-girlfriends had cheated on him and found out about it through texts.

He admitted that he was 'younger and stupid and not the greatest partner either', describing himself as 'no saint' while saying his current relationship with model Ari Fournier 'woke me up to what real compatibility and trust looks like'.
Sprouse also said that brother Dylan was 'a huge bully' to other kids at school who would 'beat them up', while he would have to go up to the kids afterwards and say sorry.
And something else he discussed was where the money earned from the first major jobs he had in acting went.
In the days before their Suite Life roles, Cole and Dylan had both performed as Ross's (David Schwimmer) son Ben, as well as been in Adam Sandler movie Big Daddy.
Sprouse said that his 'mother needed an income' and her twins making money from acting 'was a means to put bread on the table', but by the time she lost custody of her sons, all of that money had gone.
He said: "I don’t think I've ever talked about this. In very many ways, I was lucky for it not to be discussed.
"When my father was given forced custody, we had pretty much lost everything from the youngest parts of our career."
"That would be Friends and Big Daddy. My mother was an incredibly wonderful and artistic woman, but she was financially the most irresponsible woman ever."
People watching Sprouse's interview have admired the actor's honesty, but some folks have been weirded out by the way he smokes a cigarette of all things.
Apparently, something about the way the Riverdale star smoked set people off as they wondered why the actor was 'smoking that cig like he's Bob Dylan or something', while others joked that he was working that cigarette 'like a tortured soul'.
He's also been called out for what he said about ex-girlfriend Lili Reinhart as he admitted he thought their relationship should have ended sooner.
Sprouse then said the pair were still 'good friends' and 'work really well together'.
