Vanessa Hudgens is going to be a mom!

The former Disney channel star is expecting her first baby with her husband, Cole Tucker, and she announced the exciting family news in a very special way during the 2024 Oscars.

Hudgens, 35, surprised fans by debuting her baby bump as she stepped out on the red carpet for the 96th Annual Academy Awards in Los Angeles, Calif., on Sunday, March 10.

The High School Musical alum was photographed in a chic body-hugging black dress with long sleeves and a floor-length skirt that draped behind her. Pairing the look with a trendy half-up hairstyle and statement diamond jewelry, Hudgens appeared to be beaming with joy as she smiled for the cameras and cradled her growing belly.

After seeing her surprising red carpet appearance, Hudgens' fans immediately took to social media to gush about the happy news while also hyping up the actress for her stunning look for the evening.

"She looks gorg," one fan wrote on X (formerly Twitter), while someone else added, "She's glowing."

"She seems so happy congrats to her," another fan wrote.

"A literal MOTHER," one person fittingly tweeted, as another said Hudgens was "Mothering so hard!" with her red carpet look.

Hudgens' pregnancy news comes just two months after she and Tucker, 27, quietly tied the knot with a jungle wedding in Tulum, Mexico in December 2023.

The "Say OK" singer shared photos from her fairytale nuptials with her baseball player beau with Vogue at the time, showing off the gorgeous custom Vera Wang dress she wore for the special day.

Congratulations to the happy couple and now soon-to-be parents!
