Why Vanessa Hudgens wants ‘to elope’ with fiancé Cole Tucker

Is a courthouse wedding in Vanessa Hudgens’ future?

The “High School Musical” star admitted on “The Drew Barrymore Show” Monday that she “kind of” wants “to elope” with her fiancé, Cole Tucker.

Hudgens blamed the stress that comes with wedding planning for her change of heart.

“It’s hard,” she explained. “Finding a venue is tough. I’m lost. I don’t know.”

As for Tucker’s opinion, the actress, 34, noted that the professional baseball player, 26, “just wants to get married to” her however it happens.

“He’s like, ‘Whatever you want, babe,’” she gushed.

The couple went public with their engagement in February — although Tucker reportedly got down on one knee in late 2022.
