Following the announcement, Ashley’s comments section was flooded with messages of congratulations from fans and fellow celebrities alike.

Many fans couldn’t contain their excitement, especially after noting that the founder of the wellness beauty brand ‘Frenshe’ is not the only High School Musical cast member expecting. Her co-star Vanessa Hudgens confirmed earlier this year that she is also expecting, showcasing her baby bump on the Oscars red carpet.
Ashley and Chris who have been married since 2014, welcomed their first child, Jupiter, in 2021. In a post to Instagram, Ashley shared a black and white photograph of Jupiter’s tiny hands wrapped around her parent’s thumbs.

The name Jupiter has its origins in Roman mythology and is associated with growth, expansion, abundance and good fortune, much like the largest planet in the solar system.
Her middle name Iris is of Greek origin and carries the beautiful and symbolic meaning of messages, communication and connection, reflecting the role of the mythological Iris as a messenger. It can also represent beauty, grace and the colourful spectrum of life.
With two beloved High School Musical stars embarking on this new chapter of motherhood, fans are eagerly anticipating the arrival of these newest additions to the Wildcat family. Congratulations to Ashley Tisdale, Christopher French, and their growing family!
