Vanessa Hudgens had her babies on her mind in a heartfelt Mother’s Day post shared on Sunday, May 10. Feeling sentimental, the mom of two took to Instagram to share a throwback photo—taken in October 2025 by photographer Emilynn Rose—of herself in sheer lingerie and a lace veil that beautifully accentuated her baby bump.
“Happy Mother’s Day to all the mamas out there,” Hudgens captioned the post. “We are absolute warriors and goddess [sic]. NEVER forget it.” Channeling her inner goddess, Hudgens looked ethereal as she channeled Mother Nature in front of a picturesque, verdant background. Holding a firm gaze, the proud mama used one hand to cup the bottom of her baby bump as she used the other to hold up her veil, which featured an embroidered floral design. Beneath the gauzy fabric, she wore a see-through white bra with lace trim and matching underwear.

“We wanted to document her pregnancy, and I wanted her to embody Mother Nature and the beauty of being a woman and a mother,” Rose tells InStyle of the photo shoot. Hudgens completed the look with a glossy manicure, glimmering eyeshadow, and a dreamy pink lip.
On Sunday, Hudgens’s husband Cole Tucker also took a moment to pay tribute to her in a sweet post on his Instagram Story. The photo featured Hudgens smiling, makeup-free in an oversized T-shirt at home. “Supermom,” Tucker captioned the photo, adding a red heart emoji.

Hudgens and Tucker share two children, including a 21-month-old son born in July 2024 and a 6-month-old daughter born in November 2025. Though Hudgens hasn’t shared many details about her children publicly, she has commented on how wonderful it is to raise children with Tucker, according to People. “Happy Father’s Day to the best daddy in the world,” Hudgens captioned an Instagram post shared in June 2025. “You make parenting so much more fun, musical and magical.”
In 2025, Hudgens took to Instagram to reflect on motherhood. “[It’s the] hardest, most exhausting but also incredibly fulfilling and joyous chapter of my life,” she wrote. Hudgens added, “I couldn’t be more grateful for my little family. Happy Mother’s Day to all who’ve done their time or are in the grind. The power mamas hold is truly supernatural and I admire us all.”
