Vanessa Hudgens and Cole Tucker are embracing the start of something new.
The “High School Musical” alum—who welcomed her first baby, a son whose name hasn’t been revealed, last July—shared that she and her husband of nearly two years are growing their family.
“Round two,” Hudgens wrote in a joint Instagram post July 12 alongside a series of sweet maternity pics.
In one photo, the “Spring Breakers” actress showed off her growing baby bump in a flowy matching set, leaving the top unbuttoned to reveal her stomach. Meanwhile, the MLB star, 29, playfully poked her belly button while proudly smiling at the camera.
The couple’s big news comes one year after the two—who tied the knot during an intimate ceremony in Mexico in December 2023—welcomed their first baby boy. And though the 36-year-old prefers to keep her child mostly out of the spotlight, she has since shared insight into how motherhood has changed her.

“The older that I get, the more practical I get,” Hudgens told E! News last November. “Life is chaotic and hectic. I don’t need to make it any more stressful than it needs to be. So, I keep things cozy.”
“It really is about what works for you that day and having grace for yourself,” she added, “because it will change.”
As for how the “Sucker Punch” actress—who dated Austin Butler for nearly nine years before their early 2020 split—met Cole all those years ago? Well, it was during a group meditation call during the COVID-19 pandemic.
“I was literally on the Zoom with my girlfriend, and I started hitting her asking who he was, and she had never seen him before,” the Disney Channel alum told Vogue in December 2023. “So I proceeded to look on the Zoom square to find out his name and found him on Instagram—and he sent a DM the next day.”
And it seems their sleuthing paid off because the rest was history.
“After our first weekend together, I called my sister and I was like, ‘I think I just found my future husband,’” Hudgens recalled on an April 2023 episode of Today With Hoda & Jenna. “The foresight!”
Vanessa Hudgens is a new mama! The 35-year-old welcomed her first child with husband Cole Tucker, according to multiple outlets.
