Vanessa Hudgens’ net worth surpasses that of her husband, Cole Tucker. While Tucker, who proposed to Hudgens in November 2022, has an estimated net worth of $5 million, Hudgens’ fortune is currently around $16 million.

The engaged couple met virtually during COVID-19 in 2020 on a Zoom meditation group call. A friend invited Hudgens to join their weekly Zoom meditation group and text chain, which included Joe Jonas, Wilmer Valderrama, and Tucker.
The dating rumors started in November 2020 and were confirmed on an Instagram post on February 14, 2021. The couple made their red carpet debut at the AFI Fest premiere of Netflix’s Tick, tick…BOOM!.
Their engagement was confirmed on February 9, 2023, and they married in Tulum, Mexico, in December 2023, just ten months after their engagement. In July 2024, they reportedly welcomed their first child together.

Vanessa reportedly made a fortune, up to $2 million per movie, for her role as Gabriella Montez in the extremely successful High School Musical film series (2006–08).
Her biggest financial success to date, Journey 2: The Mysterious Island (2012), earned a worldwide gross of $335 million.
For “The Dead Don’t Die” premiere in June 2019, the American actress and singer channeled Morticia Addams in a black lace Vera Wang Fall 2019 dress styled with Ruchi New York emerald earrings.

Austin and Vanessa met on the set of “High School Musical,” a 2006 American musical television film written by Peter Barsocchini and directed by Kenny Ortega. They began as friends and started dating in 2011.
With a net worth of $4 million, Austin Butler is also much poorer than his wealthy ex-girlfriend. Best known for his roles as James “Wilke” Wilkerson in Switched at Birth, Jordan Gallagher on Ruby & The Rockits, Sebastian Kydd in The Carrie Diaries, and Wil Ohmsford in The Shannara Chronicles, Austin also likes creating and recording music.
The couple parted ways in January 2020. However, before their split, they happily posed for photos at the 2019 Vanity Fair Oscar Party at the Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts in Beverly Hills, California.
Vanessa looked stunning in a custom-made Dundas Pre-Fall 2019 dress, Flavia Vetorasso jewelry, and Rene Caovilla’s Cleo Maxi-Strass sandals.
