Vanessa Hudgens and Cole Tucker welcomed their first child in July 2024.
Olivia Culpo and Christian McCaffrey are officially a family of three.
The superstar couple, who celebrated their one-year wedding anniversary on June 29, took to Instagram on July 13 to announce the birth of their first baby together.
In the caption, Culpo revealed the name of her newborn baby girl: Colette Annalise McCaffrey.

Colette, a shortened form of Nicolette meaning “victory of the people” in Greek (via Nicholas), has been listed in the Social Security Administration’s (SSA) top 1,000 every year since 2012.
It most recently ranked 400th in the U.S. with 789 recorded births in 2024, per the SSA.
But, in the eyes of Culpo and McCaffrey, Colette is one-of-one.
“Luckiest man on the planet,” McCaffrey, a running back for the San Francisco 49ers, wrote next to a photo of him and Colette on his Instagram Stories.
"The scariest and most rewarding of all experiences," Culpo wrote in an Instagram story of her own. "As soon as (McCaffrey) came into the room I felt most at peace. Look at the grip."
In a separate story, Culpo praised McCaffrey as the “best daddy in the world.”
Many of the couple’s close friends and colleagues took to the comment section to congratulate them on the new arrival.
“Oh sweet girl you are so loved already. Welcome to the world angel. Love y’all so much,” wrote Natalie Stewart, the wife of retired running back Jonathan Stewart.
“Congratulations!!!! so happy!” added Morgan Romano, who was crowned Miss USA in 2022.
“Colette you have no idea how loved you are already! The luckiest little lady with two of the best to call mom & dad LOVE YOU ALL!!!” wrote Kathleen Messier, who married McCaffrey’s brother, Max, in June.
Culpo has ‘been dreaming of this’ moment for a long time
Culpo, a former Miss USA and Miss Universe winner, revealed her pregnancy in March on Instagram with a black-and-white photo showing off her baby bump in a dress.
“Next chapter, motherhood,” she wrote in the caption on March 10.
In an interview with People, published March 26, Culpo opened up about what she’s looking forward to as a first-time mom.
"I'm so excited and grateful to be pregnant. I've been dreaming of this for a long time," she said at the time. "It's very special."
One of the things she was looking forward to the most was making “traditions” with her new family.
"It is fun growing your family with someone that you really love and just being able to see Christian as a dad will be really exciting,” she told People.
"I just know he's going to be such a good partner and husband and father," she added. "I can't wait to see him step into that role. It will just be unlike any other experience."
On May 18, the couple took to Instagram to share a video of gender predictions from their baby shower.
“I am your mom and I have no idea what you are. I thought you were a boy, now everyone thinks you’re a girl, so I think you’re a girl, but watch it be a boy,” Culpo said at the start of the video.
“I’m your dad and I think you’re going to be a boy,” McCaffrey added in the next clip.
One month later, the couple celebrated their first wedding anniversary — two weeks before their baby’s birth.
“One year down, with something new, Soon it’s more than just us two,” Culpo wrote in a caption on Instagram. Best day ever, best year ever… happy anniversary to the love of my life. So so thankful.”
McCaffrey and Culpo sparked dating rumors in 2019 and went Instagram official later that year.
