Vanessa Hudgens Flaunts Her Second Baby Bump in a Chic Bikini

26 July 2025

With her growing belly catching golden light, Vanessa Hudgens glowed in a brown bikini perched on a sun-drenched beach as she celebrated a much‑needed escape to Nobu Los Cabos. The 36‑year‑old actress marked the moment on Friday, July 26, with a breezy Instagram carousel captioned “Happy girl made it to @nobuloscabos,” followed by a Story expressing her delight at some R & R by the sea.

In the snapshots Hudgens posed in a straw cowboy hat trimmed with puka shells, accessorized with white bangles and a coordinating pendant necklace. Each detail accentuated her radiant style and her gently rounded baby bump. Later she added a sheer cover‑up for a full‑length maternity portrait that invited admiration from fans and fellow actors alike. Alexandra Shipp praised the silhouette as “sickening,” while Brenda Song called it “the actual cutest”

Hudgens first announced in mid‑July that she and husband Cole Tucker are expecting their second child, sharing professionally shot maternity portraits and the simple caption “Round two!!!!” The couple have largely kept the pregnancy private omitting details like due date, sex or name of their first child born in July 2024 but their joy remains palpable through their selective but heart-warming public snapshots

These Cabo images continue that narrative: Vanessa looks serene, confident, stylish and at ease with both her pregnancy and the world around her. The vacation setting and her relaxed demeanour speak to how parenthood and self‑care are merging in this season of her life. The photos reflect intentional storytelling chosen for warmth, aesthetic coherence and emotional openness.

Her husband, retired MLB infielder Cole Tucker, appears intermittently in the earlier announcement photos pointing to her bump. The union began during lockdown in 2020 via a Zoom meditation group, leading to engagement in Paris in February 2023 and a jungle wedding in Tulum in December of that year. Their first child arrived on July 3, 2024 coincidentally Tucker’s birthday and they have since maintained a deliberately private life for their expanding family.

Vanessa has spoken candidly about motherhood’s complexity: in a previous conversation she described it as “the hardest, most exhausting but also incredibly fulfilling and joyous chapter” and expressed gratitude for every milestone she shares with her son and now soon his sibling.

Beyond the photos, Hudgens has also become a beauty trendsetter. During her pregnancy announcement, she debuted a multi‑chromatic “guava‑glaze” manicure featuring pink‑green iridescence, crafted by celebrity nail artist Zola Ganzorigt, which quickly became a celebrated look in beauty circles for summer 2025.

This Cabo getaway selfie series resonates beyond beach glamour. It reflects a celebrity figure who embraces both style and vulnerability. Hudgens balances privacy and access, offering glimpses that feel curated yet warm. These images are not simply aesthetic they serve as emotional milestones both for her and for fans who have followed her journey from Disney Channel stardom to marriage, motherhood and now growth into a second beautiful family chapter.

Looking ahead, Vanessa is also preparing to return to acting, with projects such as the upcoming film Quiet Storm and a second Princess Switch installment expected in holiday season releases. Her evolving public presence, now shaped by family life and motherhood, suggests a thoughtful blend of personal evolution and creative continuity.

Each photo from Cabo feels like a postcard from someone fully in the present, grounded, grateful and glowing. From the straw embellishments of her hat to the gentle curve of her second bump, Vanessa Hudgens invites her followers to witness a joyful, serene chapter one that pairs motherhood with style and personal meaning with familial warmth.
