Vanessa Hudgens Reminisce Journey To Find 'My Forever' In Valentine's Day Post

Although the journey has not been smooth, however, for Vanessa Hudgens, it is worth it to find her "forever."

The actress took to Instagram on Valentine's Day to reflect on her romantic journey, sharing a heartfelt post about finding "my forever." The "High School Musical" alum has been in the public eye for over a decade and has had several high-profile relationships, including Austin Butler and her long-term romance with co-star Zac Efron. 

The actress and her beau, Cole Tucker, were initially seen together in public in November 2020 before making their relationship public on Instagram on Valentine's Day 2021. Now two years later, the pair got engaged in February of this year, and her latest post gave her fans an insight into her love life.

The lovely image saw the couple side-by-side on a brown couch as the baseball player placed a kiss on the singer's head. Dressed casually in a warm sweater over a white shirt and brown pants, Tucker had his arms around Hudgens. The beautiful brunette beauty smiled happily, wearing a mini spaghetti-strapped white dress and keeping her accessories simple. In the caption, she wrote:

"Real magnetic love is out there. What a journey it was to get here, but so worth it to get to my forever @cotuck ? Happy Valentine's Day❤️."

As expected, fans flooded the comments to express their adoration. Her fiancé led by responding, "Forever and ever ❤️❤️❤️," while her best friend Sarah Hyland wrote, "PERFECTION." 

Others were just excited to see her getting the love she deserves, like this fan who wrote, "our girl finally getting the happy ending she deserves ❤️❤️," and another noting, "what a beautiful photo... I love to see how happy you are... you deserve all the happiness in this world... Happy Valentines Day... I love you guys @vanessahudgens & @cotuck ?." 

A third follower wrote, "You deserve real happiness, baby V ❤️❤️❤️." While fourth said, "❤️❤️❤️ Wishing you ? happiness and babies... congratulations to both of you... ?." 

Fans will recall that the 33-year-old recently announced their engagement on her Instagram page, showcasing a gorgeous ring that left fans in awe. The Blast shared that she sparked rumors of her engagement when she was spotted flaunting a huge ring at a Mexican restaurant in Los Angeles with her sister and mother. 

The "Spring Breakers" star and her beau posted a joint announcement, which included two pictures to confirm their engagement. Tucker hugged Hudgens from behind in one of the pictures as she flaunted her new engagement ring to the camera. 

The couple wore matching black outfits, and the Eiffel Tower could be seen in the background. The second snap focused on the diamond ring adorning her finger as the accompanying caption read, "YES. We couldn't be happier ?."

The theater star's friends could not help but comment on the post, like Lily Collins, who gushed, "Ahhh congrats, mama!!!!!!????." Another pal of hers, designer Jeremy Scott excitedly exclaimed, "SKETCHING THE DRESS NOW !!!" While dancer Julianne Hough gushed, "That's right, baby!!!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!? ?."

Close pal and actress Hyland penned some lyrics: "Couldn't be happier, Right here Look what we've got. A fairy-tale plot. Our very own happy ending ?." While Nina Dobrev wrote, "???." 

It is always heartwarming to see a close friend find love and happiness, and that's precisely how the "Struck by Lightning" actress felt when she learned that her best friend had been proposed to. 

The Blast shared that the 32-year-old, who tied the knot with Bachelorette star Wells Adams last year, could not contain her excitement. She posted a screenshot of the "Powerless" actress's engagement announcement post, which showed off the stunning engagement ring. 

In the caption, Hyland expressed her happiness and congratulations to the couple, saying she was "screaming from the rooftops" because she loves the two so much.
