Channing Tatum And Jenna Dewan'S Divorce Drama: Finances, Magic Mike, And Moving On on ONDA LA

Unpacking the Tatum-Dewan Divorce

Channing Tatum and Jenna Dewan's split captivated Hollywood, and now the financial details have surfaced. The duo, who tied the knot in 2009 and parted ways in 2018, faced a rollercoaster of legal proceedings that extended over several years. One key issue was Dewan's claim to a share of the profits from the wildly successful 'Magic Mike' franchise, which she argued was developed using marital funds while they were together.

But it's not all contentious. According to the settled terms, both agreed to split their retirement benefits evenly during their marriage and chose to waive spousal support. They also decided that if child custody needed sorting, they'd handle it privately. Talk about keeping things SoCal cool!

“To have that fall apart, especially being so young. We tried to keep it together,” Tatum shared with Variety, reflecting on the end of their relationship. “It’s in the past. But it’s really tough not to have your daughter half the time. I wish I could just have her all the time.”

Step Up to the Spotlight

Their love story began on the set of 'Step Up' in 2006, a film that sparked both their romance and careers. The couple's chemistry led to marriage in 2009 and the birth of their daughter, Everly. During their union, they created the 'Step Up' series for Starz and Tatum went on to star in and produce the 'Magic Mike' film series and its successful Vegas live shows.

Despite their eventual split, both Tatum and Dewan have moved forward. Tatum, after a whirlwind engagement with Zoe Kravitz, is now seeing Australian model Inka Williams. Dewan, meanwhile, found love with actor Steve Kazee, and the couple now shares two children.

Casting Light on the Future

The resolution of their divorce marks a new chapter for Tatum and Dewan. They continue to co-parent their 12-year-old daughter, Everly, with equal custody, maintaining a bond through her. Tatum described the breakup as a "painful break," but both seem to have found their stride in their respective new relationships.

With all the Malibu-style drama behind them, these two stars continue to shine brightly in Hollywood's firmament, each taking on new adventures both personally and professionally.
