Not only is Vanessa Hudgens expecting her first child, she revealed her pregnancy in the best way!
The actress, who had been tapped as the official co-host of the Oscars 2o24 pre-show, made her entrance onto the Academy Awards red carpet and used the opportunity to debut her baby bump.
The High School Musical and Spring Breakers fave wore a black, high-neck gown with a train for the occasion and posed for photographers while cradling her bump with her hands.
The news comes after the 35-year-old actress married baseball player Cole Tucker in a ceremony in Tulum, Mexico in December 2023.
Vanessa has previously spoken out about pregnancy speculation, taking to the She Pivots podcast to shutdown fans’ comments on her body.
“I literally just had a run-in with the public taking control over their opinion of me in a way that was disrespectful,” she said. “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.'”
“I’m sorry I don’t wear Spanx every day and am a real woman and have a real body,” she said, before adding; “Don’t make assumptions in all aspects of life, but especially over other women’s bodies.”
Words to live by! We’re sending major congrats to Vanessa and Cole on the happy news.
