Vanessa Hudgens is shutting down rumours she’s pregnant amid her engagement to baseball star Cole Tucker.

After the High School Musical actor published a video from her bachelorette party in Aspen, Colorado, on 24 October, fans flooded her comments section inquiring about a possible baby on the way.

Hudgens, 34, was seen bundled in oversized hoodies, fur jackets, button downs, and a loose-fitting slip dress in the Instagram video compilation. “Why does she look pregnant to me or like she’s trying to hide a bump?” one viewer questioned, while another asked: “Are we pregnant?”

Many followers came to her defense, asking critics to stop filling her page with with pregnancy accusations.

“Even if she was pregnant it’s really no one business but hers. She is glowing yes but because she is about to the marry the love of her life,” one supporter wrote. “That would make any one glow. I’m so happy to see her happy she deserves all the happiness.”

To set the record straight, the “Sneakernight” singer responded to one person’s remark with an eye-rolling emoji. “Not pregnant so y’all can stop,” Hudgens wrote back.

Hudgens and the Colorado Rockies player have been together for more than two years, officially announcing their engagement in February of this year. However, according to multiple sources, the 27-year-old athlete popped the question in 2022.

In a poignant Instagram post at the time, Hudgens stuck her finger up and exposed her delicate diamond ring. “YES. We couldn’t be happier,” her caption read, as the two posed in front of the lit-up Eiffel Tower in Paris at night.

Speaking to Entertainment Tonight in April, Hudgens spoke candidly about her manifestation efforts. “My relationship, my home, my career. There’s so much,” she remarked. “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.”

Before Tucker, Hudgens dated her Disney Channel co-star Zac Efron. She moved on to a relationship with actor Josh Hutcherson before dating Elvis star Austin Butler for nearly 10 years.

The Hollywood A-lister was rumoured to be dating Tucker after the two were spotted holding one another in 2020. It wasn’t until Valentine’s Day in 2021 that the pair publicly confirmed their relationship. Hudgens took to Instagram to post a sweet photo of her and Tucker, writing: “It’s you, it’s me, it’s us.”
