Vanessa Hudgens, Cole Tucker welcome second child

They’re all in this together.

“High School Musical” star Vanessa Hudgens and former major league baseball player Cole Tucker welcomed their second child over the weekend.

Hudgens, 36, announced the news Saturday with an Instagram post showing her lying in a hospital bed holding Tucker’s hand.

“Well…. I did it. Had another baby!!!” Hudgens wrote. “What a wild ride labor is. Big shout out to all the moms. It’s truly incredible what our bodies can do.”

Hudgens also shared another photo with a bloodshot left eye, which she captioned: “Labor: poppin out babies and blood vessels loooool.”

Tucker, 29, and Hudgens had their first child in July 2024. The duo has not revealed the name or sex of either of their children, opting for privacy in their family lives.

After first meeting during a Zoom meditation session in 2020, Hudgens and the former Pittsburgh Pirates utilityman got married in December 2023 in Tulum, Mexico. Hudgens announced her second pregnancy in July and chronicled parts of her journey on Instagram.

In addition to the Pirates, Tucker played for the Colorado Rockies and Los Angeles Angels before officially retiring in March. During the 2025 season, he worked with Sirius XM covering baseball.
