Hold The Front Door: Vanessa Hudgens’ New Relationship With Cole Tucker Is Now Instagram Official

The new couple have celebrated Valentines’ Day by brandishing their love on Instagram.

Vanessa Hudgens has confirmed the rumors she’s dating US baseball star Cole Tucker with an Instagram post for Valentines’ Day. The post contains a photo of the two lip-locked, with the caption “It’s you, it’s me, it’s us.” (Actually quite chilling for anyone who watched The Haunting of Bly Manor last year, but I digress.) 

Soon after, Tucker posted his own photo of the pair cuddled up on the couch sporting bright tracksuits. Hudgens commented on the photo “Melted” with a long string of loved-up emojis. You get the idea. They’re dating and it’s 2021. 

Rumours about the couple arose in November 2020, when an eyewitness told E! News they’d spotted Hudgens and Tucker on a “romantic dinner outside under the stars” in Laurel Canyon, California. 

“They shared wine and food and had a great two-hour meal. Vanessa was giddy with laughter. She was looking over at Cole and couldn't contain her smile,” the source said. 

Doubly cementing their relationship status, Hudgens also shared a meme that Tucker’s baseball team (‘The Pittsburgh Pirates’) posted in wake of the news. The meme is of Hudgen’s iconic T as in Troy? moment from High School Musical, but with Cole in place of Zac Efron’s character. Honestly, R.I.P. Troy and Gabriella forever, I don’t care if they’re fictional characters. 

So while we await more news from legit couple, I’ll be busy brainstorming memes to add that extra flair to my next extremely public relationship announcement. 

Seriously though. Gabz and Troy until the end of time.
