She also showcased her baby bump at the Vanity Fair after-party in a glamorous sheer frock.
Since then, Vanessa has kept fans up to date on her pregnancy by sharing bump snaps on Instagram and stepping out in midriff-baring looks in Los Angeles.
Back in May, she dished to E! News about whether or not she plans to show her future children her extensive film and TV work.
‘I’ll show my kids all my work,’ she confessed. ‘That’s why I chose things along the way in my career.
‘I wanted to make sure that when I did have kids, there would be something for them to watch at every age,’ Vanessa explained.
Vanessa sparked a romance with now-husband Cole in 2021 after they met during a Zoom meditation session during COVID.
After two years of dating, the couple got engaged in February 2023.
Vanessa first faced pregnancy rumors after posting photos and video from her bachelorette party in October 2023 in Aspen, Colorado.
She admitted on the She Pivots podcast in March that the ‘rude’ pregnancy speculation made her feel ‘fat’ and detracted from what was supposed to be ‘the happiest’ time in her life.
‘I feel like I literally just had a run-in with the public taking control over their opinion of me in a way that was disrespectful,’ she told the podcast hosts.
Ten months later, Vanessa tied the knot with Cole during a lavish wedding in Tulum, Mexico on December 2, 2023.

She told Vogue that seeing Cole at the altar was ‘the most emotional moment of my life.
‘I literally keeled over when I saw Cole and had to take a big breath and had to force myself to keep walking because I could have dropped to the floor,’ she recalled to the outlet.
She added that the vows they exchanged were the ‘most beautiful thing ever.’
Prior to her relationship with her now-husband, Vanessa had previously been in a longterm relationship with Elvis actor Austin Butler.
Around the time she revealed her pregnancy news, Vanessa shared that she was grateful for their breakup as it led to her meeting Cole.
During her March appearance on the She Pivots podcast, she said: ‘I feel my last breakup has really catapulted me to a very, very special place, obviously.
‘You pushed me to the right person,’ she continued, adding that their split is something she is ‘so grateful for.’
She then gushed over her husband and father of her child.
‘He’s just the most supportive, real, understanding human being that I’ve ever met,’ she said about Cole.
On top of becoming a first-time dad on Wednesday, Cole is also celebrating his 28th birthday.

Vanessa made sure to pay tribute to her husband with a sweet Instagram post that included her favorite photos of the MLB star.

The post featured snaps of the couple kissing on a baseball field and packing on the PDA during their wedding weekend.
