Dylan attended and cheered from the front row. On October 20, his identical twin brother Cole Sprouse posted an Instagram Story selfie joking that it's \"that time of year again\" when he gets tagged in Victoria's Secret content because \"people still don't know who married Barbara.\"\n\nThe mix-up is a long-running joke: Palvin has been a Victoria's Secret Angel since 2019, and every year after the show, fans tag the wrong Sprouse twin. The couple announced their daughter's arrival on September 28, hinting she was born around Labor Day, September 7. Palvin told PEOPLE backstage she was \"six weeks postpartum tomorrow\" and called it \"empowering\" that Victoria's Secret supported her return.\n\nCole Sprouse did post a selfie on Instagram Stories joking that he gets tagged in Victoria's Secret content because people don't know which twin married Barbara Palvin. Dylan Sprouse is married to Palvin, who walked in the Victoria's Secret show on October 18, 2026, about six weeks after giving birth.","publishedAt":"2026-10-22T22:23:18.383Z","channel":{"id":"culture","name":"Oncast Music","language":"en"},"show":"On Repeat","verification":{"status":"verified","leadVerdict":"TRUE","notes":"TRUE: Cole Sprouse did post a selfie on Instagram Stories joking that he gets tagged in Victoria's Secret content because people don't know which twin married Barbara Palvin.

That's the whole problem."},{"host":"Laura","text":"Okay, but genuinely — one of them married Barbara Palvin, and the internet cannot keep it straight."},{"host":"Claudette","text":"Dylan married Barbara.

It's that time of year again, apparently."},{"host":"Claudette","text":"He put up a selfie saying, 'I get tagged in Victoria's Secret content because people still don't know who married Barbara.'"},{"host":"Laura","text":"I mean, they're identical twins. I kinda get it."},{"host":"Claudette","text":"Sure, but the man has been joking about this for YEARS. Every time the show airs, he gets the tags."},{"host":"Laura","text":"And this year it's actually a bigger deal — Barbara walked the show six weeks after having their daughter."},{"host":"Claudette","text":"She was backstage telling people it was 'empowering' that Victoria's Secret supported her return."},{"host":"Laura","text":"Six weeks postpartum and walking a runway? I can't even leave my house six weeks after a haircut."},{"host":"Claudette","text":"Dylan says he doesn't know where she finds the energy.

But at this point, it's a running bit."},{"host":"Laura","text":"It IS the bit! And he keeps feeding it. He went on CBS Mornings and said he'd be a 'really annoying' uncle who buys swords and drum kits."},{"host":"Claudette","text":"I love that.
