Vanessa Hudgens, a former "High School Musical" star, and Cole Tucker, a former Pittsburgh Pirates player, sparked dating rumors in 2020, when they were seen walking hand in hand in Los Angeles.

Hudgens later said that she was the one who had first made contact with the other person during a Zoom group call for meditation. She messaged Tucker on Instagram, recognizing that making the first move is not difficult.

The couple has been inseparable since then. Tucker has Hudgens' support during his baseball games, and Hudgens has Tucker's support during her work.

They reportedly got engaged in November 2022, which was celebrated with a romantic trip to Paris, according to rumors that surfaced before Vanessa Hudgens first showed off her engagement ring.
