Zac Efron's sweet gesture towards Vanessa Hudgens 13-years after their split

Zac Efron has reached out to his high-profile ex-girlfriend, Vanessa Hudgens - 13 years after their shock split.

The High School Musical co-star's might be back in contact again after Zac, 35, made a subtle attempt to grab Vanessa's attention on social media.

The former lovebirds, became household names in their respective roles as Troy Bolton and Gabriella Montez in the High School Musical film trilogy between 2006 and 2008.

During that time, the pair found themselves in an off-screen romance and soon became one of Hollywood's most famous and loved couples.

However, Zac and Vanessa felt their adoring admirers heartbroken when it was announced that they had gone their separate ways in 2010 - fours years after first meeting one another.

Taking to social media to gush over Zac's subtle attempt to reach out to Vanessa, fans shared their reactions.
