Vanessa Hudgens is pregnant! Known for her role in "High School Musical," Vanessa Hudgens officially announced her first-time motherhood as she walked with her baby bump on the Oscars 2024 red carpet.
Hudgens made her baby bump debut in a stylish long-sleeved black dress, with her hair elegantly half-pulled back, as she blew kisses to the photographers on the red carpet. Along with her radiant presence, the singer and actor adorned herself with sparkling diamond accessories, including a captivating necklace, rings, and earrings.
While posing for photos and conducting interviews on the carpet, the soon-to-be mother gently cradled her bump with her hands, smiling warmly as she received congratulations from well-wishers.
This will be Vanessa Hudgens and her husband, baseball player Cole Tucker's first child together.
Hudgens and Tucker tied the knot in December 2023 in an intimate jungle-themed ceremony held in Tulum, Mexico, following approximately three years of dating.
The star of "Spring Breakers" is the co-host to the Academy's official pre-show alongside Julianne Hough.
On Wednesday, Hudgens addressed previous pregnancy rumors that initially surfaced in October. “I literally just had a run-in with the public taking control over their opinion of me in a way that was disrespectful,” she stated during the March 6 episode of the She Pivots podcast. “I went out on my bachelorette party in October and I posted video of me, and there are all these comments that are like, ‘Oh my god, you’re pregnant.'”
She denounced the remarks as "so rude," emphasizing, “I’m sorry I don’t wear Spanx every day and am a real woman and have a real body.”
Hudgens emphasized the importance of being "more mindful" regarding pregnancy speculation, stating, "Don’t make assumptions in all aspects of life, but especially over other women’s bodies.”
