Vanessa Hudgens announces she's pregnant with baby No 2 as she debuts bump with husband Cole Tucker
The High School Musical alum, 36, took to Instagram on Saturday to reveal she's expecting her second child with husband Cole Tucker.
In a sweet carousel of snaps, the actress showed off her growing baby bump in a chic open shirt and matching skirt.
The loved-up couple held hands, laughed, and pointed to her belly, looking completely smitten.
Vanessa captioned the post, 'Round two!!!!'
Vanessa and Cole tied the knot in December 2023 during a romantic ceremony in Tulum, Mexico.
Just four months later, she debuted her first baby bump at the 2024 Academy Awards — and now, baby No. 2 is already on the way!
Vanessa sparked a romance with now-husband Cole in 2021 after they met during a Zoom meditation session during COVID.
After two years of dating, the couple got engaged in February 2023.
At the time, she jumped to her main Instagram page to give her fans a glimpse of the diamond sparkler on her hand with the Eiffel Tower close by in the distance.
Hudgens first faced pregnancy rumors after posting photos and video from her bachelorette party in October 2023 in Aspen, Colorado.
She admitted on the She Pivots podcast in March that the 'rude' pregnancy speculation made her feel 'fat' and detracted from what was supposed to be 'the happiest' time in her life.
'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,' the star expressed during the episode.
Ten months later, Vanessa tied the knot with Cole during a lavish wedding in Tulum, Mexico on December 2, 2023.
She told Vogue that seeing Cole at the altar was 'the most emotional moment of my life.

'I literally keeled over when I saw Cole and had to take a big breath and had to force myself to keep walking because I could have dropped to the floor,' she recalled to the outlet.
Prior to her relationship with her now-husband, Vanessa had previously been in a long-term relationship with Elvis actor Austin Butler.
Around the time she revealed her pregnancy news, Vanessa shared that she was grateful for their breakup as it led to her meeting Cole.
During her March 2024 appearance on the She Pivots podcast, she said: 'I feel my last breakup has really catapulted me to a very, very special place, obviously

Woody Allen to publish his first novel
The first novel by the film-maker Woody Allen is due to be released later this year by independent publisher Swift Press. The book, titled What's With Baum?, is about a middle-aged Jewish journalist turned novelist 'consumed with anxiety about everything under the sun', according to a description from the publisher. Baum's 'turgid philosophical books receive tepid reviews and his prestigious New York publisher has dropped him'. Baum's third marriage is 'on the rocks', and 'in a moment of irrationality, he has impulsively tried to kiss a pretty young journalist during an interview that she is about to go public with'. Since the 1970s, Allen has written several books of short stories and essays, as well as a memoir, Apropos of Nothing, published in 2020. The memoir was dropped by its original US publisher, Hachette, after a staff walkout over allegations that Allen sexually abused his daughter in the early 90s, which have come to define his public image in recent years. The memoir was eventually published by Arcade. Allen's daughter, Dylan Farrow, has alleged that he sexually assaulted her in 1992, when she was seven years old. Allen has always denied the allegations, calling them 'a total fabrication from start to finish' in his memoir. Two investigations at the time did not lead to criminal charges. What's With Baum?, which runs to 160 pages, is 'a portrait of an intellectual crippled by neurotic concerns about the futility and emptiness of life', said Swift Press. Baum 'suspects his handsome and successful younger brother may have seduced his Harvard-educated wife. He is uneasy with her close relationship with her son, a more successful author than he, and suspicious of her closeness with their neighbour in Connecticut.' 'Is it any wonder Baum has started talking to himself?' states the publisher's description. 'Strangers shake their heads and walk around him on the street. Meanwhile he learns a startling secret that could cause havoc should he expose it. Should he keep it to himself or reveal it and blow up his marriage?' The novel is due to be published in September. Swift Press publisher Mark Richards said the company was 'thrilled' to be publishing the book. 'It is all we could have hoped – funny, clever, engrossing and wonderfully human. Woody Allen may have waited almost 90 years before he wrote a novel, but it's been worth the wait.' Swift Press was established in June 2020. In 2022, it launched an imprint, Forum, to publish 'thinkers who expand the realms of debate and aren't afraid to question contemporary orthodoxies', and has since published titles including Liberal Bullies: Inside the Mind of the Authoritarian Left by Luke Conway and Gay Shame: The Rise of Gender Ideology and the New Homophobia by Gareth Roberts.

Game of Bones! Study reveals dogs' favourite TV programmes
Many dog owners enjoy snuggling up on the sofa to watch their favourite TV show with their pet. But if the remote was in your dog's paw, what would it choose to watch? According to scientists from Auburn University in Alabama, the answer is probably something featuring animals. In a new study, the researchers surveyed more than 450 dog owners about their pets' viewing habits. The results revealed that almost half (45 per cent) of the dogs reacted when they saw an animal on TV. In particular, the pooches took note when they spotted another dog barking or howling on screen. So, if you want to give your dog the ultimate movie night, it's best to stick on something like Bluey, Scooby Doo, or Crufts. 'Companion dogs experience a meaningful, object-filled world when they view television,' the researchers said. While most dogs are regularly exposed to televisions, their preferences for content have remained unclear until now. Writing in their study, published in Scientific Reports, the research team, led by Lane Montgomery, wrote: 'Because companion dogs are regularly exposed to televisions, it is pertinent to understand how dogs behaviorally respond to and interpret these types of stimuli from a welfare perspective.' To get to the bottom of it, the researchers recruited 453 owners, whose dogs ranged in age from two months to 16 years old. The participants were surveyed about their dogs' TV viewing habits. This included whether the owner tried to teach the dog to watch TV, the average number of hours per week the owner's TV is switched on, and the average number of seconds the dog pays attention to the TV. An analysis of the results revealed that on average, the dogs watched TV for 14 minutes and eight seconds in any one sitting. Other animals were the dogs' favourite thing to watch, with 45 per cent responding to animal content such as barking or howling. The researchers also found that the dogs' personalities influenced their viewing preferences. Dogs reported by their owners as excitable were more likely to follow objects on-screen - for example during tennis or football matches. Meanwhile, fearful or anxious dogs were more likely to respond to non-animal stimuli on screen, such as car horns or doorbells. 'The results suggested that dogs respond to television stimuli based upon both categories of stimuli (i.e., animal, non-animal) and upon types of behavior (i.e., behavior that suggests attendance to the stimuli versus behavior that suggests some expectation of the movements of the stimuli),' the researchers wrote. 'In addition, individual differences in temperament impacted the types of stimuli that dogs engaged with.' While the study might seem light-hearted, the researchers say the findings could have important implications. 'These temperament differences could inform training approaches to rectify problem behaviours towards TVs,' they concluded. WHAT ARE THE TEN COMMONLY HELD MYTHS ABOUT DOGS? It is easy to believe that dogs like what we like, but this is not always strictly true. Here are ten things which people should remember when trying to understand their pets, according to Animal behaviour experts Dr Melissa Starling and Dr Paul McGreevy, from the University of Sydney. 1. Dogs don't like to share 2. Not all dogs like to be hugged or patted 3. A barking dog is not always an aggressive dog 4. Dogs do not like other dogs entering their territory/home 5. Dogs like to be active and don't need as much relaxation time as humans 6. Not all dogs are overly friendly, some are shyer to begin with 7. A dog that appears friendly can soon become aggressive 8. Dogs need open space and new areas to explore. Playing in the garden won't always suffice 9. Sometimes a dog isn't misbehaving, it simply does not understand what to do or what you want 10. Subtle facial signals often preempt barking or snapping when a dog is unhappy
