Vanessa Hudgens had the sweetest way of announcing she’s pregnant with her first child on the Oscars red carpet.
The High School Musical star wowed in a clinging black gown as she stepped out at the 2024 Academy Awards, cradling her bump and positively glowing with her black tresses arranged in a high ponytail.
Vanessa’s all-black ensemble fell all the way to the floor in a full train and featured long sleeves. She added a simple silver necklace around her throat for a pop of colour and beamed at the waiting cameras. Rings glittered on her fingers as Vanessa opted for a white manicure on her long nails.

The star opted for a glam make-up look with a dark pink pout and cat-eye liner while revealing she is expecting her first baby with her Colorado Rockies star husband Cole Tucker.
The pair originally tied the knot in December 2023 in Tulum, Mexico, in front of 100 of their closest friends and family – and even penned their own vows. In a sweet nod to how they met, the couple had the ceremony officiated by Jay Setty, who led the virtual meditation session where they first made contact in 2020.
But around the wedding, Vanessa shut down speculation she might be pregnant, insisting to fans: “Not pregnant so y’all can stop.”

Vanessa added at the time: “I feel like I literally just had a run-in with the public taking control over their opinion of me in a way that was disrespectful. I went out on my bachelorette and I posted video of me and there are all these comments that are like, ‘Oh my god. You’re pregnant.’
“And I’m like, that is so rude. I’m sorry, I don’t wear Spanx every day and I’m a real woman and have a real body. I’m literally celebrating one of the happiest times of my life, and you guys are just gonna make me feel fat. That’s great. Thanks.”

The star went on to describe ‘rules’ women should have with each other: “One of them is don’t make assumptions… in all aspects of life, but especially over other women’s bodies. We deal with so much with other people trying to control our bodies, not let’s not make assumptions over other women’s bodies as well.”
She sweetly commented on her romance with Cole earlier last year that she “manifested” him, admitting: “My relationship, my home, my career. There’s so much. As long as you’re really specific, might not always come when you expect it or want it, but it’s always gonna come back in some way.”
