Channing Tatum, 45, is having a full year in 2026 — balancing a blossoming relationship, a busy slate of film projects, and even an unexpected injury along the way.
His Personal Life
Tatum is currently dating Australian model Inka Williams, 26. The couple first sparked dating rumors in early 2025 and went Instagram official that April, with Williams posting a birthday tribute calling him “the handsomest, kindest, funniest” person in her life. They rang in 2026 together on a romantic getaway in Costa Rica, packing on PDA on the beach and even recreating the famous “Dirty Dancing” ocean lift.
The couple made their red carpet debut together at the 98th Academy Awards on March 15, 2026, with Tatum presenting and Williams calling the night “so special” on Instagram. Their relationship marked its one-year anniversary in April 2026. The 19-year age gap between them has drawn plenty of online commentary, though those close to the couple describe the relationship as easygoing and happy.
Before Williams, Tatum’s romantic history included his nine-year marriage to Jenna Dewan (with whom he shares daughter Everly, born 2013), a relationship with singer Jessie J, and a three-year relationship with Zoë Kravitz that ended in an engagement announced in 2023 before the pair split in October 2024.
His Career
On the film side, Tatum stars in “Josephine,” a psychological thriller from director Beth de Araújo that won the top two prizes at this year’s Sundance Film Festival. He appears alongside Gemma Chan in the story of struggling parents, with the trailer released in August 2026.
He’s also attached to a heist-thriller alongside Ryan Reynolds, playing a former LA detective turned undercover operative tracking down his own brother. Talk has also resurfaced about a possible “24 Jump Street,” with Tatum, Ice Cube, and Jonah Hill potentially reuniting more than a decade after “22 Jump Street.”
Off screen, Tatum is stepping into publishing — he’s partnering with author Roxane Gay on a romance novel centered on two people who make a pact to marry after 40.
Earlier this year, Tatum shared that he had to undergo surgery for a separated shoulder, posting x-ray images documenting the injury and his recovery.
