Hudgens and Tucker have kept their personal lives pretty private since welcoming a baby together last summer. TMZ first reported that the High School Musical alum had given birth on July 3, and shared photos of the actress and the baby heading home from the hospital that day.
In an Instagram Stories post shared on July 4, Hudgens acknowledged that she was not the first to share the news of her baby's arrival, and criticized the release of the photos.
"We're disappointed that our family's privacy was disrespected and exploited during this very special time due to the greed of a long lens camera feeding the media," she wrote at the time. "Despite all of that, mom dad and baby are happy and healthy."
Hudgens announced her pregnancy on the red carpet at the 2024 Oscars. She proudly stepped out in a black, long-sleeved, floor-length dress that showcased her belly.
The actress previously gave a glimpse of the type of parent she aspired to be while speaking to E! News, telling the outlet that she hopes to show her will watch all her projects when they're older.
"I'll show my kids all my work. That's why I chose things along the way in my career. I wanted to make sure that when I did have kids, there would be something for them to watch at every age," she said.

Joey Chestnut reveals his absurd goal for Nathan's hot dog eating contest return
They say absence makes the heart grow fonder. Though in the case of Joey Chestnut, it may be that absence makes the heart grow hungrier. Chestnut is returning to the Nathan's Famous Fourth of July hot dog eating competition after a dispute relating to a sponsorship deal the famed eater had with a plant-based brand Impossible Foods led him to be barred from last year's competition on the Coney Island boardwalk. Major League Eating and Chestnut announced Monday morning that they thawed out the footlong-sized beef and that the sport's biggest star would be back for this year's contest, taking place in just over two weeks. Joey Chestnut is making his return to the Nathan's Famous Hot Dog Eating Contest this year, with a lofty goal. Paul Martinka 'I guess we learned from our mistakes maybe,' Chestnut said in an interview with TMZ. 'Last year, both sides kind of dug in our heels. I was working with a company they didn't think I should be working with and I said, 'no it wasn't against any part of our old agreements.' We just kind of met in the middle [this year] and I think when communication breaks down, bad things happen. 'We started talking again and we got it figured out.' The Post confirmed last week that the two sides were having conversations over a potential reunion and that other brand deals were not going to be a factor in talks. Chestnut also hinted at that factor in a statement released on Monday morning as part of his post on social media announcing his return to the Nathan's contest. The famed eater admitted to TMZ that it was 'tough' having to watch from the sidelines last year and that 'it kind of sucked that it wasn't my choice' not to be there. Joey Chestnut during the weigh-in ceremony ahead of the 2023 Nathan's Famous Fourth of July International Hot Dog Eating Contest in Coney Island. REUTERS 'It kind of makes you hungry,' he said. 'You kind of have to go without something in order to know how much you appreciate it and I'm definitely hungry for this year. Two and a half weeks, I'm going to be putting down some hot dogs.' With Chestnut's return, the competition may be shaking in their buns as the man nicknamed 'Jaws' declared he would be going into the competition looking to 'drop the hammer' and eying to hit the 80-dog mark. It ate a Nathan's record 76 in 2023. Patrick Bertoletti won last year's event in Chestnut's absence by eating 58 hot dogs and buns in 10 minutes.

Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex, is getting candid about sharing her life on social media. The mom of two and former actress recently sat down for an interview with the "Aspire with Emma Grede" podcast, set for release Tuesday, and spoke about a video she shared that recently went viral. In a promotional clip shared on YouTube ahead of Tuesday's podcast episode, Meghan opens up about the video, which shows her dancing with her husband Prince Harry in the delivery room before the birth of their daughter, Princess Lilibet. "That wasn't yesterday," Meghan says in the promotional clip. "That was four years ago. So it's also a really great reminder that with all the noise or whatever people do, there's a whole life -- a real, authentic, fun life that's happening behind the scenes." "I'm just grateful that now, being back on social as well, I have a place where I can share it on my own terms," she added. Earlier this month, Meghan shared several memories of Lilibet on her birthday, including the video of herself and Harry dancing to the viral song "The Baby Momma Dance" in the delivery room at Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital in Santa Barbara, California, ahead of Lilibet's birth. The video is among many personal moments Meghan has shared on her official Instagram account, @meghan, since launching the page in January.
