If you have been under a rock the past 24 hours, then you may have missed the announcement of newly signed Colorado Rockies utility man Cole Tucker.

According to reports, Tucker and actress Vanessa Hudgens are engaged! Apparently, the pair may have gotten engaged while visiting Paris back in the fall of 2022.

Hudgens is known as the star of Disney’s High School Musical, while Cole has played for various teams, including the Pittsburgh Pirates and Arizona Diamondbacks. The couple has been dating for a while now.

Hudgens has been seen at various games supporting her now fiancé over the past two years. She also was the first to make the move on the baseball star, as she described in an interview with Drew Barrymore back in 2021.

“I get on the Zoom, and I’m like, ‘Who is that?'” she shared on The Drew Barrymore Show in May 2021. “I found him, and we started talking.”

Hudgens continued to say, “If I want something or someone, I’m going after them. I fully just slid into his DMs and was like, ‘Hey, it was nice to meet you.’ So I think there is no shame in making the first move.”

Her making the first move has paid off.
