Vanessa Hudgens reveals pregnancy at 2024 Oscars red carpet

The "High School Musical" star debuted her baby bump in a black floor-length dress and caressed her belly as she posed on the red carpet.

LOS ANGELES — Vanessa Hudgens revealed a glamourous baby bump on Sunday at the Oscars red carpet.

Hudgens, who is 35, is expecting her first child with Major League Baseball player Cole Tucker. The "High School Musical" star debuted her baby bump in a black floor-length dress and caressed her belly as she posed on the red carpet.

The actress is co-hosting the Oscars pre-show with Julianne Hough. 

During the 30-minute show she hosted on ABC, Hudgens accepted congratulations from various celebrities on the impending birth of her first child.

Hudgens and Tucker, who is an outfielder for the Seattle Mariners, tied the knot in Tulum, Mexico, in early December. 

"She’s a wife now," Hudgens said in an Instagram post after her wedding. 

Their wedding came months after the couple announced their engagement on social media in early February 2023. 

The pair were first linked in 2020 when they were spotted holding hands and hugging each other, People reports. Hudgens revealed in an Entertainment Tonight interview that she met the 27-year-old professional baseball player through a meditation group. 

"Me and Cole met on a Zoom meditation group. Very random, yes," she told the outlet at the time. "Zoom, you've got to love it."
