Oscars 2025: Vanessa Hudgens Walks First Red Carpet Since Giving Birth to Baby With Cole Tucker
Vanessa Hudgens realized rather quickly that Cole Tucker was exactly who she had been looking for.
In fact, as soon the High School Musical alum—who welcomed her first baby, a son whose name hasn’t been revealed, last summer—crossed paths with the baseball player, she knew that it was truly the start of something new.
“After our first weekend together, I called my sister,” she said of younger sib Stella during a previous appearance on Hoda & Jenna, “and I was like, ‘I think I just found my future husband.’ The foresight!”
And fast-forward to Valentine’s Day 2021, Vanessa made their romance Instagram official, captioning a snapshot of them kissing, “It’s you, it’s me, it’s us.”
But she wasn’t the only one soarin’, flyin’ after finding new love.
“I got a girlfriend and she’s cool,” Cole told KDKA during spring training that same month. “She’s awesome, I love her. But I don’t want it to be, ‘Oh, Cole’s dating Vanessa.’ She’s great. She’ll be around. You will see her.”
