The shocking update comes a year after they got engaged.
Channing Tatum and Zoë Kravitz’s love story is proof that there’s nothing more romantic than a man following fan-made Instagram accounts, all dedicated to you. Since the couple first went public with their romance in August 2021 after working together on Kravitz’s directorial debut Blink Twice, they shared a lot of sweet details about their relationship — but sadly, it sounds like their love story couldn’t last.
Back in October 2023, multiple outlets reported that Tatum and Kravitz had taken their romance to the next level: engagement. But just one year later, it was reported that the couple called off the engagement and ended their relationship.
Here are all the details on their relationship timeline, including the summer bike ride that started it all.

Tatum and Kravitz first met in 2017, but they didn’t start working together on Pussy Island until 2021. In January 2021, after Kravitz filed for divorce from Karl Glusman, fans started speculating about a potential romance between her and Tatum.
However, E! and People sources put the rumors to rest. An insider told People, “They're working together on an upcoming project and it's not true that they're dating.”
August 2021: They Were Photographed On A Bike Date
Although sources initially claimed that Tatum and Kravitz weren’t together, in August 2021, they seemingly confirmed the speculation with their first public outing. The couple was spotted on a bike ride in New York City’s East Village. In photos obtained by Page Six, Kravitz joined Tatum on his bike, standing behind him with her arms wrapped around his shoulders.
That same month, Us Weekly reported that Tatum started following several Kravitz fan accounts, including “kravitzupdate,” “zkluv,” “zoekravitzinc,” and “zoekravitzsource,” which made his admiration for the multi-hyphenate abundantly clear.

We love to watch a film and break it down and talk about it and challenge each other.”
Apparently, during their time working together on Pussy Island, Tatum took on the role of Kravitz’ “protector.” She explained, “Whether it was making me tea or pouring me a drink or going to whip someone into shape or whatever — he really was my protector and it was really wonderful and sweet.”
She also discussed going public on a bike ride. “You want to keep it sacred and private as long as you can,” Kravitz recalled her hesitation to share their romance with the world. “So that you don’t have to even think about what the world thinks about it.”

Tatum explained falling for Kravitz as he got to know her while working on Pussy Island. “I thought it was super punk rock.

That really has this perspective they’re constantly digging for.”
