Vanessa Hudgens celebrated the impending birth of her second child with a bikini snap that exposed her baby bump.
The actress was pictured cradling her growing baby bump in a black floral bikini on the beach alongside her friend Laura New, who is also pregnant.
Hudgens wore no makeup for the photo and wore her long curls around her shoulders. New rocked a similar string bikini as she cradled her baby bump and smiled.
Hudgens captioned the photo on Friday: “There’s nothing better than being pregnant with your best friend 🥰😝.”
Fans flooded the comment thread with praise for the pregnant women.
One follower wrote: “So lovely!!❤️❤️❤️,” while another added: “Two cute moms.”
“What a special photo. You both look so happy 😁. How lucky your kids are to have an automatic magic 🪄 sibling,” gushed a third.
Actress New also praised the friendship and their upcoming arrival.
“Literally, there’s nothing better than meeting your best friend! Our journey has been magical 🪄 I can’t believe it…I mean, it’s kind of incredible… how the universe brought our best friends this close 🥹 A new best friend is on the way!,” she wrote.
The High School Musical alum, 36, flashed her butt in a brown bikini while vacationing in Mexico with husband Cole Tucker in July.
The actress announced on July 12 that she is pregnant with her second child.
“Round 2!!!,” she captioned an Instagram photo with Tucker as she debuted her baby bump in an off-white skirt set.
The Disney star gave birth to her first child with Tucker in July 2024, but has not yet revealed his son’s name.
At the time, the happy couple were photographed leaving a hospital in Santa Monica, California, with Hudgens cradling their newborn in a wheelchair.
“Becoming a mom has been the hardest and most exhausting chapter of my life, but also incredibly fulfilling and fun,” Hudgens wrote on Instagram in May.
“I couldn’t be more grateful for my little family.”
Hudgens and Tucker, 29, tied the knot in an ultra-private ceremony in Tulum, Mexico in December 2023 after four years of dating.
