The Call Her Daddy podcast, hosted by Alex Cooper, is framed as a space for safe discussions about relationships, sex and misogyny but has become infamous for celebrities airing their controversial opinions or thoughts.
In the latest episode, Alex invited Disney Channel alum and Riverdale cast member Cole Sprouse, 30, on to chat about his past relationships.
This included a discussion about fellow Riverdale star Lili Reinhart, 26, who Cole dated for three years before the pair called it quits in early 2020.
However, clips shared online have upset fans who claim Cole had "humiliated" Lili, who he still has to work with, and was "causing drama" on set.

He also claimed that he was cheated on "by almost every single one of my girlfriends".
When asked if it lasted longer due to the pair working together, Cole says it "absolutely" did and added: "I think if I had loved myself a little more, I probably would have left a little earlier."
Previous relationships apparently had a more "sexual foundation" for the 30-year-old, who went on to say that his new relationship with Ari Lou Fournier is built on "real compatibility and trust" that he has "never had before".
The star adds that he does not blame any of his partners for problems, saying that it "takes two to tango". However, this podcast confession is a wide departure from previous statements about Lili and their relationship and conflicts recent statements the star made.
When Cole confirmed their break up on Instagram in 2020, he said: "What an incredible experience I had, I'll always feel lucky and cherish that I had the chance to fall in love. I wish her nothing but the utmost love and happiness moving forward. All I'll say about it, anything else you hear doesn't matter."
Fans of Riverdale have not responded well to Cole's discussion, with one person saying: "Airing out private details about their break up while the show is literally still filming???? Cole Sprouse you are very strange."
Another said: "They have not finished filming Riverdale Cole Sprouse is so unserious the last few months about to hell on that set."
