Zac Efron has followed Vanessa Hudgens on Instagram - and High School Musical fans are rejoicing.
The actors starred together in the 2006 TV film as Troy Bolton and Gabriella Montez respectively. In the film, Gabriella was attracted to Troy, and that romance soon blossomed off-screen.
Zac and Vanessa were confirmed as a couple when they began posing together on the red carpets. They went on to star together in two sequels and in 2009 both attended the Oscars and Golden Globes.

However, a year later they broke up. During that time, fans have not given up on them reuniting either officially or on screen in a new High School Musical film.
This hope was shown again today when it was spotted that Zac had followed Vanessa on Instagram. There was predictable excitement from High School Musical fans.
One fan on Twitter said: “My ZANESSA heart is so happy.” Another added: “I’m freaking out.”
These were keen to speculate on what this development might mean. One person said: “High School Musical the reunion??”
Others speculated that this could mean Zac and Vanessa are reuniting as a couple. One fan said: “Zanessa are back.”
Despite this, others pointed out that Vanessa recently declared her engagement to baseball player Cole Tucker. While others were getting excited about 'Zanessa', one fan said: "I’m sure it’s platonic now that she’s getting married and that’s okay. So y’all Zanessa lovers, don’t jump for joy.”
