Disney legend Vanessa Hudgens has disclosed that she is anticipating her first child in a surprising but glamorous manner.
The actress, 35, gained fame in the High School Musical series alongside Zac Efron.
Vanessa, who married baseball star Cole Tucker, 27, last year, has now confirmed she is expecting the couple’s first child in an iconic way.
She announced her pregnancy on the red carpet of the 2024 Oscars, posing for photos in a form-fitting outfit that showcased her baby bump.
Wearing a beautiful black dress with long sleeves and a high neck, the Spring Breakers star affectionately cradled her belly as she posed for pictures.
Vanessa looked absolutely radiant as she complemented her all-black attire with silver jewelry, including dangling earrings and a necklace.
She tied the knot with sports star Cole in December of last year in an intimate ceremony in Mexico, surrounded by loved ones.
Discussing their wedding in an interview with Vogue Magazine, she confessed that she ‘almost fainted when I saw Cole and had to take a deep breath and had to push myself to keep walking because I could have collapsed to the ground.’
While Vanessa has yet to publicly discuss her impending motherhood, the Gabriella Montez actress previously addressed speculation after fans thought they had seen her with a baby bump.
In October, she received an influx of comments on Instagram from fans who believed they had spotted a protruding belly, to which Vanessa replied: ‘Not pregnant so y’all can stop.’
Elsewhere on the Oscars red carpet, the stars were out in force for film’s biggest night, prepared to honor movies such as Barbie, Oppenheimer, Killers Of The Flower Moon, and Poor Things.
