Channing Tatum has laughed off online speculation that he secretly runs a social media account used to criticize his ex-fiancée Zoë Kravitz. The Magic Mike star addressed the chatter on social media after the alleged burner account began drawing attention on X (formerly Twitter).
Channing Tatum finds Zoë Kravitz’s burner account rumors hilarious
Tatum directly questioned why he would publicly follow an account if he wanted to hide behind it. “F—— hilarious,” he wrote, while rejecting the idea that he spends his free time attacking Kravitz. He also made his account situation clear, saying he has only one Instagram profile: @channingtatum.
The account at the center of the gossip reportedly used a username built around the phrase “none of your business” and followed Tatum as its only account. Tatum also reportedly followed it, which helped fuel speculation. Posts from the profile allegedly took shots at Kravitz and her fiancé Harry Styles, while Jennifer Lopez also became an unexpected target of its comments (via TMZ).
The rumor arrives after Tatum and Kravitz ended a relationship that began while working on Blink Twice. Kravitz chose Tatum for the film in 2021 and told Deadline she had pictured him for the role while writing the character. Their professional partnership soon turned romantic, and they went public through a series of New York City outings before getting engaged in October 2023.
The couple called off their engagement in October 2024 after three years together. Multiple sources told PEOPLE that they had grown apart and were no longer at the same stage in life. Kravitz later discussed the breakup with ELLE, saying she still cared deeply for Tatum and felt grateful for what they experienced together while making Blink Twice. “I’m so happy that all of it happened,” she said, adding that he had “a lot to offer.”
Tatum has previously spoken warmly about Kravitz, too. In a February 2022 interview with Variety, he described her as a “perfectionist” while discussing her directorial debut. He also credited Kravitz with influencing his personal style during a V Man interview with Jonah Hill.
