Meanwhile, Tatum refutes this claim, with his lawyers arguing that the actor “continued to create and develop [Magic Mike] since [their] separation.” Based on the court filing, it seems Tatum—who is currently engaged to Zoë Kravitz—is eager to finalize their divorce settlement, having “exhausted all efforts in an attempt to settle this matter without litigation.”

January 17, 2023: Channing Tatum opens up about the divorce while promoting Magic Mike’s Last Dance. “In the beginning, [the split] was super scary and terrifying,” he tells Vanity Fair “Your life just turns on its axis. This whole plan that you had literally just turns into sand and goes through your fingers and you’re just like, ‘Oh, shit. What now?’” He didn’t go into heavy detail about the cause for their split, but said the pair had “grown apart.”
“I think we told ourselves a story when we were young, and we just kept telling ourselves that story, no matter how blatantly life was telling us that we were so different.” he says. “But when you’re actually parents, you really understand differences between the two of you. Because it is screaming at you all day long. How you parent differently, how you look at the world, how you go through the world.”
October 31, 2023: People reports that Tatum and Kravitz are engaged.
August 18, 2023: As Tatum and Kravitz’s relationship begins to go public, sources tell E! News that Dewan is unbothered. “Jenna doesn’t get involved in who he dates,” the source says, adding, “She wants the best for Channing and hopes that he is healthy and happy. She leaves it at that.”
August 4, 2021: Jenna Dewan denies slamming Tatum during her interview on the Dear Gabby podcast. During the interview, she opened up about the “postpartum anxiety” she faced shortly after her daughter Everly’s birth, partially due to her and Tatum’s mismatched work schedules. “I had to travel with her, and at the time, Chan wasn’t available to be with us for the most part,” Dewan said on the podcast, according to People. “So, it was me, my doula, and Evie all by ourselves traveling at six weeks.”
She continued, “You know, you’re up a couple times in the night and then you’re working all day. I was breastfeeding, I was pumping, I was without a partner. I mean, it was just craziness.”
After the interview goes live, Dewan claims her words were taken out of context by media outlets. “It’s unfortunate that countless media outlets have taken an important conversation on a woman’s experience with postpartum issues and pulled quotes to make it appear that I was slamming my daughter’s father, something I would never do,” she wrote in a note posted on X.com. “As two working parents, we both faced challenges at the time, but I speak only for myself and not about him. Anyone who actually listens to the interview, something I encourage everyone to do, will clearly see that my words have been distorted for clicks and to push false, salacious gossip with no regard for the actual people involved or the message intended.”
