She’s officially off the market! After ending her nine-year relationship with Austin Butler last year, Vanessa Hudgens has finally found herself a new beau.
The 32-year-old Thunderbirds actress confirmed the rumored romance between her and baseball player Cole Tucker after posting a romantic Valentine’s Day photo of her kissing Cole.
Making their relationship Instagram official, she added the caption: “It’s you, it’s me, it’s us.”

Vanessa and Cole first sparked dating rumors in November after they were spotted having dinner at Pace in Laurel Canyon in California.
That same month, Vanessa posted a flirty photo of herself holding a pink rose with the caption “Date night,” teasing her new romance.

Since confirming their relationship, Vanessa has been regularly posting cuddly photos of her and her man on social media. According to The Athletic, Cole Tucker is a big fan of the High School Musical media franchise, in particular the hair of Corbin Bleu’s basketball player HSM character, Chad Danforth.
“I thought that Corbin Bleu was the coolest person on Earth, and he had hair just like I do now—the long, ringlet curls,” Tucker told the subscription-based sports website.
“When I was in fourth grade, I was like, ‘Man, I am going to grow out my hair. I’m going to look like Corbin Bleu and it’s going to be the coolest thing ever.’ I did it and I’m still doing it. I sound like such a nerd right now, but that’s really what happened. It kind of became my thing.”
Last Thursday, the High School Musical alumna was spotted leaving Dogpound Gym in West Hollywood without her new boyfriend.

Looking fit and fab, Vanessa highlighted her toned arms in a light blue Nux Active One by One ribbed bra top paired with matching leggings that showcased her shapely legs.
She also had a black Petals and Peacocks “Get Well Soon” hoodie wrapped across her body. You can get it for $64 at Nordstrom.

To give her athleisure an upgrade, the Princess Switch star accessorized with jewelry, including a $10,750-Jacquie Aiche 14-karat gold diamond body chain, hoop earrings, beaded necklaces, statement rings, and a stack of bangles.
Wearing a short wavy hairstyle, Vanessa kept a low profile with a black cap designed with a “tick, tick… BOOM!” print on the front in reference to her upcoming Netflix musical drama film.
