Ashley Tisdale is now a mother of two! The “High School Musical” star and her husband, Christopher French, first welcomed their daughter, Jupiter Iris French, in March 2021. In September 2024, they added another girl to their family, Emerson Clover. Amid balancing her career and personal time, Tisdale opened up about her experiences with “mom guilt,” sharing in February 2023, “I still am trying to find the work-life balance. She’s just the best thing in the entire world. She’s always so much fun,” referring to her time with Jupiter. Here’s a closer look at Ashley Tisdale’s daughters, Jupiter and Emerson.
Born on March 23, 2021, Jupiter Iris made her debut to the world. Tisdale joyously announced her arrival on Instagram, quickly introducing her to friends and former co-stars, including Vanessa Hudgens. “Literally Jupiter opened her arms like hold me the minute she met Ness. Warmed my heart,” Tisdale recounted on Instagram. At eight months old, Jupiter also met another of Tisdale’s close friends and “Sharpay’s Fabulous Adventure” co-star, Austin Butler.
On September 6, 2024, Tisdale and French welcomed Emerson Clover into their lives. “All three of us are obsessed with you,” Tisdale captioned a heartwarming Instagram post featuring a photo of the family holding baby Emerson’s hand. The announcement of Emerson’s impending arrival came just three days after Jupiter’s third birthday. Reflecting on her initial reluctance to have another child due to her tough first pregnancy, Tisdale shared on TikTok, “After I had Jupiter, I was like, ‘I’m not doing this again.’ It was physically really hard on me.” However, noticing how sociable Jupiter was with other children, Tisdale and French felt a sibling would be a wonderful addition.
Ashley Tisdale’s partner in life and parenting is Christopher French, a musician she married after a whirlwind romance. The couple got engaged in 2013 atop the Empire State Building, just eight months into their relationship, and married the following year in a private ceremony where Vanessa Hudgens served as a bridesmaid. Over a decade later, they’ve collaborated on music, developed the wellness brand Frenshe, and raised their two daughters. Celebrating their 10th wedding anniversary in September 2024, French reflected on Instagram, “What an unbelievable adventure it’s been so far. You continue to inspire and amaze me every day, the woman I’ve had the privilege of seeing you grow into… and the life we’ve built together by hand, with blood and sweat and tears, and endless love. I am so grateful.
