Cole Sprouse reacts to Kim Rhodes’ comments regarding his twin Dylan refusing to make a fat joke about her on Suite Life Of Zack And Cody
Cole Sprouse responded to comments made by his Suite Life of Zack and Cody co-star Kim Rhodes about his twin brother Dylan Sprouse.
Rhodes, 54, played Carey Martin, the single mother of twins Cody Martin (Cole) and Zack Martin (Dylan) on the Disney Chanel hit, and recently said that Dylan defended her over a fat joke written for the show while she was pregnant.
Cole revealed that he had ‘heard’ about what Kim said but could not remember the incident during an interview with AND on Wednesday. He attributed his hazy memory to the eight years he spent filming the show.
“That’s very kind of her to say that,” he began. “If I’m completely honest, when you record so many episodes of a show, they all blend together like one big amorphous memory.
“So I don’t really remember much about that period,” he continued. ‘The specific details are a bit lost. I love Kim. I’m happy to hear that she looks back on all that fun.’

He added, “I mean, honestly, I still talk to a lot of the cast and crew of Suite Life.
“I think when you’re on a soundstage with a crew for eight years, it’s inevitable that you become a bit of a family.”
During an appearance on the 90s/2000s podcast Back to the bestRhodes revealed that she became pregnant during filming, leading to several fat jokes on the show.
She revealed on the podcast that Dylan “skipped” the joke all week, but when it came to the taping, he stuck to his guns and fired a shot at the writers.
“One of my favorite memories is when Dylan had a line that was a cool joke, and he kept jumping over it. It was in the middle of a piece of dialogue. So he kept skipping this laugh line,” Rhodes began.

“Finally we get in front of the studio audience, and he skips it. The executive producer shouts “Cut.” Besides, it’s the director’s job to cut,” she adds.
“He says, ‘Cut. Dylan, say the sentence. He says, “I wouldn’t disrespect any woman like that, let alone this woman. You write something funny, and I’ll say it,” Rhodes said.
‘That’s my little man. They’re both my little men,” she said, adding that both Dylan and Cole “have defended me the whole time.”
Dylan and Cole – identical twins born just 15 minutes apart – started acting when they were just six months old, playing young Patrick in Grace Under Fire starring Brett Butler.
They both switched to feature films when Grace Under Fire went off the air, Julian starred in Adam Sandler’s Big Daddy and appeared alongside Charlize Theron in The Astronaut’s Wife.
While the twins were only 12 when The Suite Life of Zack and Cody debuted on Disney Channel in 2005, they both had 10 feature films and more than 100 television episodes under their belts.
The Suite Life of Zack and Cody aired for three seasons from 2005 to 2008, with the Sprouse twins moving on to The Suite Life on Deck, where they studied abroad.
That lasted three more seasons from 2008 to 2011, culminating in The Suite Life Movie in 2011.
He says, ‘I wouldn’t disrespect any woman like that, let alone this woman. Write something funny, and I’ll say it,” Rhodes said.
