Cole Sprouse posted a series of Instagram stories slamming those who leaked his personal information and sent death threats during his relationship with Lili Reinhart.

In the first of three posts, Sprouse wrote: "I tolerate a lot of rumors and slander from people online claiming to be my fans. Fans who feel entitled to my privacy precisely because I never indulge them.

"But attacking my friends, baseless accusations, leaking my address, and sending death threats are all qualities of insanity and fanaticism. Choose humanity. Stop being [clown emoji]."

Sprouse continued in his second post, writing that these things were "foreseeable consequences" of stepping into a public relationship, referencing his relationship with his "Riverdale" costar Reinhart.

"And while I truly never intended to indulge any part of my private life to the ravenous horde, it's clear my restraint in updating them has allowed them to push their own agenda onto my habits and lifestyle."

In Sprouse' third and final post, Sprouse concluded by writing: "So in conclusion, please eat my delectable plump ass. (making me post a goddamn white font Insta story like a twice divorced mother of three)."

Sprouse and Reinhart are famously private about their relationship. They first began dating in 2016, but have faced break-up rumours fairly consistently since then.

However, in Allure's February cover story of Reinhart, Sprouse was referred to as her boyfriend. Reinhart also released a book of love poems in March, although it is unconfirmed if any of them are about Sprouse.
