Zac Efron Says He 'Bounced Back Quickly' After Getting Sick in Papua New Guinea

Zac Efron is speaking out after his reported hospitalization in Papua New Guinea.

“Very thankful to everyone who has reached out. I did get sick in Papua New Guinea but I bounced back quick and finished an amazing 3 weeks in P.N.G,” the actor, 32, shared on Twitter and Instagram Sunday.

“I’m home for the holidays with my friends and family. Thanks for all the love and concern, see you in 2020!” Efron added.

Australian news outlet Sunday Telegraph reported that Efron had contracted typhoid or a “similar bacterial infection” while filming his Quibi show, Killing Zac Efron. The star was airlifted to Brisbane, where he was taken to St. Andrews War Memorial Hospital in Spring Hill, according to the outlet.

A rep for Efron did not immediately respond to PEOPLE’s request for comment.

Typhoid is a life-threatening illness caused by bacteria that can be found in contaminated water and food in Papua New Guinea, according to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention. Antibiotics and vaccines can be used for treatment.

In November, Efron announced his new adventure series.

“Zac heads deep into the jungles of a remote island to carve his own name in expedition history. Zac is going all-in, falling off the grid for 21 days with nothing but basic gear, a guide partner and a will to survive,” the series said in a statement, obtained by Entertainment Weekly.

Efron, who also serves as executive producer on the series, said, “I tend to thrive under extreme circumstances and seek out opportunities that challenge me on every level. I am excited to explore any uncharted territory and discover what unexpected adventure awaits!”

Streaming platform Quibi is set to launch on April 6, 2020

See the First Photos from Soccer Champions Ashlyn Harris and Ali Krieger's Wedding

Soccer stars Ali Krieger and Ashlyn Harris are officially Mrs. and Mrs.

Harris, 34, and Krieger, 35, were married at Vizcaya Museum and Gardens in Miami, Florida, on Saturday. Now, PEOPLE has an exclusive first look at the happy couple’s wedding photos.

For the ceremony, Krieger wore a gown by Pronovias — also the designer for the mothers of the brides’ dresses and the bridesmaids’ dresses. Harris wore a custom suit by Thom Browne, who also designed the suits worn by Krieger’s brother and their pal Megan Rapinoe for the ceremony.

Opening up to PEOPLE about the design process, Harris called it “really, really enjoyable.”

“I asked if it would be possible to create and design a custom suit or tuxedo for the wedding. It has been the most enjoyable, beautiful process I have ever done and I’ve been a part of fashion for a long time now,” she said. “To just have the access to give input and create something together has been one of my greatest accomplishments.”

The pair also exchanged rings by Great Heights.

Krieger said she took the helm on planning the festivities, with help from Sara Lowell of Sara Renee Events and the couple’s agency, Wasserman. The pair also used the Knot to help get organized for the big day, and provide a registry for their guests.

The brides exclusively revealed their engagement to PEOPLE in March 2019. The couple started dating when they met playing for the U.S. National Team in 2010 and now play for the Orlando Pride, together.

Harris and Krieger helped the U.S. women’s national soccer team win the 2019 FIFA Women’s World Cup Final, giving America its fourth championship in the tournament. And now the two have a pair of rings to go with their new trophy.

Opening up about what tying the knot means to them, Krieger said to PEOPLE, “Obviously, we’ve been together for a long time. And so I guess when we were ready to make it official, we’ve taken that step and we got a new house and so we’re kind of moving in the same direction and it just feels like we’re kind of coming together as one. We feel like we’re at a really good place and a really comfortable place and the age that we’re at, especially, we feel real confident in the foundation that we’ve built.”

Krieger continued, “So I think that this is a great step forward and kind of starting the rest of our lives.”

Barack Obama Names Fleabag, Little Women and The Irishman Among His Top 2019 TV Shows and Movies

Barack Obama has revealed his favorite television shows and movies of the past year.

The former president, 58, listed his recommendation of comedies, dramas and thrillers on social media Sunday.

“This year’s list includes everything from explorations of class dynamics and relationships, to an inspired reboot of a classic graphic novel, to a portal back to one of the most special places in history — an Aretha Franklin concert,” Obama wrote in the caption.

Among his favorite films were the Olivia Wilde-directed Booksmart, Awkwafina-starring The Farewell, Matt Damon and Christian Bale-starring Ford v. Ferrari, Martin Scorsese-directed The Irishman, Jamie Foxx and Michael B. Jordan-starring Just Mercy, Greta Gerwig-directed Little Women as well as the Scarlett Johansson and Adam Driver-starring Marriage Story.

Wilde reacted to the shout-out on Twitter with a gif of Booksmart actress Beanie Feldstein. “OH MY GOD,” the mom of two wrote.

Popular TV shows Fleabag, Unbelievable and Watchmen made a special category. “And quick list of TV shows that I considered as powerful as movies,” he said.

“We couldn’t ask for higher praise than this,” the Amazon Prime show tweeted in response.

In addition, the father of two noted his Netflix documentary with wife Michelle Obama. “Of course, there’s also American Factory, a film from our own production company, Higher Ground, that was recently shortlisted for an Oscar. It’s our first offering in partnership with Netflix, and I’m excited about the other projects we’ve got in the works,” Obama said.

American Factory, a documentary on post-industrial Ohio, premiered on Netflix in August, marking the first film released through their highly anticipated production deal with Netflix that the former first couple hopes can help viewers “get outside of themselves.”

On Saturday, Obama recommended 19 books to mark the end of 2019.

“As we wind down 2019, I wanted to share with you my annual list of favorites that made the last year a little brighter,” he tweeted, adding, “I hope you enjoy these as much as I did.”

Former first lady Michelle’s best-selling memoir Becoming, which was released in November 2018, made his 2018 list of favorite books.
