Vanessa Hudgens is now a mother of two, and this holiday season, she did some reflecting on “simpler times.” After welcoming her second child in November with husband Cole Tucker, Vanessa took to Instagram where she shared a sizzling snap of her dancing on a table in a neon pink bathing suit.
Vanessa looked like the definition of carefree as she straddled the wooden table barefoot with a perfectly messy bun, gold hoops, oversized sunglasses, and a big smile.
The 37-year-old got candid in the caption, writing that she hasn’t gone to any holiday parties or even left their home this holiday season. “Newborn life lol,” she wrote. “So here’s a photo of me in simpler times, where I danced on tables.”
Vanessa welcomed her second child in late November after welcoming their first in July 2024. “What a year it’s been,” she continued. “From this to mom of 2…. What a journey.”
Vanessa’s private motherhood journey

Their decision could have something to do with what happened when she gave birth to their first child. When the new parents were leaving the hospital with their baby, paparazzi snapped and sold photos of them to news outlets.

Since then, Hudgens has been very careful with anything she shares on social media. But the glimpses have shown fans that while she may not be dancing on tables anymore, she’s having a great time figuring it out with her partner.
