"Our family’s privacy was disrespected and exploited" - Cole Tucker's wife Vanessa Hudgens lashes out at media for invasion of personal space
LA Angels outfielder Cole Tucker and 'High School Musical' star Vanessa Hudgens became parents on July 3. The couple were spotted outside a hospital in Santa Monica as paparazzi leaked photos on Thursday morning.
Hudgens, after getting discharged from the hospital, was in a wheelchair holding her baby and Tucker was right behind her in a hoodie.
After photos of them with their newborn surfaced on the internet, Hudgens slammed Paparazzi for invading their privacy. She took to social media to express her frustration while also mentioning the well-being of her family.
"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. Despite all of that, mom dad and baby are happy and healthy," Hudgens wrote in her story.
Even netizens on the internet were quick to slam paparazzi for releasing photos without the couple's consent. The sex and exact birth date of Vanessa Hudgens' first child are not known yet. But the internet has been abuzz with congratulatory messages for the couple.
It was during the 2024 Oscars red carpet that the "French Girl" actress first revealed her pregnancy. The couple tied the knot last year on December 2.
