Vanessa Hudgens confirmed that she’s pregnant with her first child with her husband, baseball outfielder Cole Tucker, by flaunting her baby bump on the Oscars 2024 red carpet.

The “High School Musical” alum announced that she’s going to be a mother by gracing the red carpet of Hollywood’s biggest night at the Dolby Theatre on March 10 (March 11 in the Philippines) in a gown that showed off her baby bump.

Hudgens was a radiant mom-to-be in her body-hugging, turtleneck gown, with parts of her hair done in a high ponytail. Her look was finished off with a crystal choker and drop earrings.

She was among the hosts of the awards ceremony’s pre-show with Julianne Hough.

The actress-singer tied the knot with Tucker in an intimate ceremony in Mexico in December 2023. The couple has been in a relationship for three years before getting married.

Per Variety, Hudgens denied pregnancy allegations earlier this month during an episode of the “She Pivots” podcast, as she called out netizens for “making assumptions over women’s bodies.”
