VANESSA Hudgens fans have spotted a major clue about her newborn baby’s name in a selfie.
The High School Musical alum and her baseball player husband Cole Tucker, 28, welcomed their first child earlier this month.
On Friday, Vanessa, 35, posted a selfie on her Instagram Stories that hinted at her baby’s yet-to-be-announced name.
The photo, captioned “Happy Fridayyy,” showed the Bad Boys: Ride or Die actress making a kissy face while flashing a peace sign.
Her long black hair framed the sides of her face and a necklace with a diamond-encrusted “T” medallion hung around her neck.
Fans noted that the charm could hint that the child’s first name starts with the letter “T.”
Last week, Vanessa confirmed she’d given birth to her baby while revealing being disappointed that she and Cole couldn’t share the news themselves.
The Spring Breakers star shared a message on Instagram regarding the baby news being leaked.
Her statement read, “We’re disappointed that our family’s privacy was disrespected and exploited during this very special time.
“Despite all of that, mom, dad, and baby are happy and healthy.”
Photos surfaced online of Vanessa leaving the hospital in a wheelchair in Santa Monica, California.
In her arms, she carried a newborn baby while wearing all-black underneath a blue sweater.
The star had her hair up in a ponytail while holding her child close.
A nurse pushed her to her luxe SUV with her MLB player hubby pushing a cart of bags.
BIG REVEAL
On March 10, Vanessa debuted her baby bump for the first time while smiling at photographers at the Academy Awards
She showed off her stunning figure in a skintight black dress that flowed at the bottom with a long train following.
Later that evening, the Sucker Punch actress posted some photos of herself on Instagram with many fans congratulating her in the comments.
“MOTHER IS MOTHERING!! congrats [Vanessa], we already love this baby so so much,” one wrote.
Another said, “You’ll be a wonderful mother!!!”
“Baby’s Oscar debut!” exclaimed a third.
