The High School Musical star revealed that she met Cole in a “very random” way.

“Me and Cole met on a Zoom meditation group. Very random, yes.” She jokingly said: “Zoom, you’ve got to love it.”

Gushing about how happy she is and how her new man is perfect for her, Vanessa added: “He’s just kind of perfect for me. I am [happy]. I really am.”

She continued: “I think that it’s also so important to stay grateful for everything that you have in life. I’ve been making that a priority, and I feel like it’s just been making magic happen all the more.”

During a spring training session in February 2021, Cole Tucker addressed reporters about his relationship with Vanessa. He said: “I got a girlfriend, and she’s cool. She’s awesome, I love her.”

Last week, Vanessa Hudgens made a solo red carpet appearance at the Inter Miami CF Season Opening Party, which was held at The Goodtime Hotel.

Showing off the fruits of her hard work, the former Disney Channel star wore a revealing black dress that perfectly clung to her toned figure.

She chose the “Genevieve” dress from the LA-based clothing label Cult Gaia’s Fall/Winter 2021 collection. The $630 jersey gown features a cutout waist held together by a detachable rope chain-link belt. It also has a zip fastening along the back and a maxi hemline.

Drawing all the attention to her hourglass figure, Vanessa kept the rest of her look simple. She accessorized with gold hoop earrings, a gold bracelet, and rings.

She wore her dark tresses in slightly teased tousled waves for her beauty look, accentuating her gorgeous features with mascara, eyeliner, peachy nude lipstick, and matching blush.
