Vanessa Hudgens is glowing once again—this time with baby number two on the way.
The High School Musical alum and husband Cole Tucker are expecting their second child, just months after welcoming their first. Hudgens broke the news with a joyful Instagram post, proudly showing off her growing bump and captioning the photo simply: “Round two!!!!”
The couple’s first child, born in July, was kept largely out of the public eye, with Hudgens and Tucker choosing not to share the baby’s name or gender. Their low-key approach to parenthood has been a refreshing contrast to the typical Hollywood spotlight.
Hudgens first revealed her initial pregnancy during a dazzling appearance at the 2024 Oscars red carpet pre-show, which she co-hosted while wearing a sleek black gown that framed her bump in dramatic style. She and Tucker, a former MLB player, married in a dreamy Mexican ceremony in December 2023.
Despite the growing family, Hudgens isn’t slowing down. She’s set to return to the big screen as both star and producer of Quiet Storm, a 1969-set thriller tackling themes of women’s liberation and social upheaval.
With her second child on the way and a major film in the works, Hudgens is entering her boldest chapter yet.
