Pregnant Vanessa Hudgens and Cole Tucker's Love Story Will Have You Soarin', Flyin'
View Date:2025-01-09 17:30:06
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 revealed her pregnancy while on the Oscars 2024 red carpet March 10, crossed paths with the baseball player, she knew that it was truly the start of something new. (See every star as they arrive here).
"After our first weekend together, I called my sister [Stella]," she said 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 soaring 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."
And a little more than two years later, the two made it official, tying the knot in an intimate ceremony in Mexico. As for the swoon-worthy details?
"[My friend] was asking me where he should go for a little vacation, and I was scrolling through Instagram right before he called, and I was like ‘Oh go to Azulik—this place is so freakin' beautiful," the Princess Switch actress told Vogue in December. "I told Cole, ‘Maybe we could go here on our honeymoon…we would get such great pictures. Wait—maybe we could get married here?!'"
Which led her to take a quick trip to Tulum to scout the location (about 45 minutes into the jungle from the Azulik hotel) and there, she felt it was more than OK.
"I felt like I was transported to some kind of utopia, unlike anything I had ever been to before," Vanessa explained. "It was whimsical and magical, and I just fell in love."

Vanessa shared her first Instagram photo with Cole on Valentine's Day 2021, three months after the two sparked romance rumors with a romantic dinner date in Los Angeles. She captioned the pic, "It's you, it's me, it's us. @cotuck."
The couple made their red carpet debut as a couple at the premiere of the film, starring Vanessa, at 2021 AFI Fest in Hollywood, Calif.
The two attended the premiere of the Netflix movie in New York City.
"Happy vday from us crazies," Vanessa captioned this Instagram pic.
The two watched John Mayer perform at Los Angeles' Hollywood Palladium for SiriusXM and Pandora's Small Stage Series.
The pair walked the carpet at the 28th Screen Actors Guild Awards in Santa Monica, Calif.
"Happy opening day my [king]," Vanessa captioned this Instagram tribute to her partner, a Pittsburgh Pirates player at the time, which she shared on the MLB's opening day in 2022.
The actress appeared with her partner on the baseball field.
"Happy Halloween from Sting and Miss Argentina," Vanessa captioned this Instagram pic.
"Merry af," Vanessa captioned this Instagram photo.
Vanessa and Cole confirmed their engagement on Feb. 9, sharing a picture of the actress rocking some bling on her wedding ring finger. "YES," the Instagram post read. "We couldn't be happier."
Vanessa joked about eloping with Cole after running into roadblocks during the wedding planning process. "Finding a venue is tough," she admitted on The Drew Barrymore Show. "I kind of just want to elope. I'm lost, I don't know."
The couple tied the knot on Dec. 2, 2023 in Tulum, Mexico. The 100-guest ceremony was attended by family and close friends, including Sarah Hyland and Alexandra Shipp—who sereved as bridesmaids—as well as Vanessa's former High School Musical costars Monique Coleman and Lucas Grabeel.
Cole celebrated Vanessa's first birthday as a married woman with a romantic tribute reading, "Happy birthday to my wife!!!!!!"
